Default Nitrous on 180k mile car? Suggestions please.

My friend just got juice on his mustang and I think he can finally beat me lol

Well the car was bone stock besides exhaust and intake up until 168k then I did, headers, tune, stall, and gears.

Should I add the bottle or just let it be for now?

I have made 4 passes with 100 shot and 239,000mi with no problems. I have heard plenty of guys with mid 100,000 mile lsx motors and spray the hell out of them. IF you want to win then you need to squeeze it!

N2O is good for your engine, cleans it out, as long as you don't aggravate an existing condition, you are good to go. (and if you do aggravate something, it woulda blown eventually at the most inconvenient time possible!)

Mileage is meaningless. like krazy 4 said, if compression is good, engine sounds good, spray spray spray!!!

If you're concerned just do a leak down before hand.
