nitrous 5.3
The 5.3 is fine with Nitrous and when installed and tuned correctly with the correct safety devices and accessories Nitrous is as safe as any other power adder. On the other hand if you cut corners and dont do it right it can bite you real quickly.
The stock bottom end of the 5.3 is capable of safely taking up to a 150 hp worth of nitrous.

For the plugs i'd suggest the NGK BR7EF ( Stock # 3346 ) plugs. With no more mods than you have you could spray up to a 125hp shot without having to upgrade the pump and if you wanted to go higher on jetting before you do that you will need to get it on a dyno to monitor AFR. In general before you spray the vehicle i suggest putting it on the dyno so you can monitor the AFR on all the shot sizes ( I'd suggest starting at a lower hp setting and working your way up to your desired shot hp ). IF the diablo programmer is adding timming then you will need to return the tune back to stock unfortuately.

Other than the system i'd suggest getting a FPSS ( Fuel pressure safety switch ), Window Switch, and a Nitorus fitler. You could also get a bottle heater as well becasue nitorus is run off of pressure and without the heater there will be no way to keep the pressure in the bottle up.
