Because they dont know sh** about N2O or they do business with incompetent. As long as you know the basics(Spark plugs, timing, fuel, tuning, good parts..). You seem to have it covered, do you have a FPSS?..some plp talk crap about it, but this 50$ saved my engine at laest 10times...

Good work OP, a lot of news parts got in!!

+1 Im with you. Me and my father just had this convo yesterday. I think it's a old school thing where guys with carbs just throw some nitrous on a street motor and didnt really know how to tune, or have any safety features, then they go out and blow their motor apart. I told him that plenty of people have stock bottom end LS1's and shoot 150 for years with no problem and he didnt believe me. All he keeps talking about is how nitrous blows up intakes. I told him with the EFI and cpu tuning along with the electronics and safety features nitrous can be as safe as any other power adder. He still doesn't believe me so I guess I'm going to have to prove it to him.

Tuning is the biggest killer but Nitrous has its lessons to be learned. I learned mine on a nitrous spike from too much bottle pressure. kaboom, #5 and 7.
It is also very wise to run nitrous filter, specs of dirt can jam solinoids wide open.
On my system I have 3 security triggers, just in case 1 fails.
Throttle trigger, FPSS at rail , and an inboard manual linked to a second pressure trigger (electronic).
Haven't had an issue since. Only drawback is when system shuts don in the middle of a race, but a saved motor is worth a loss I guess.

and some notes...
it only took two turns of the key to start. and it ran idoled 100% like a normal cammed car. with headers it made the whole shop rumble but sounded great with the whole exhaust on.

for some reason my throttle body wont open 100%???? it wont hit the wot switch cus that, anyone know anything about that?

Does the TB have the same cam as the one that came on your car?
