Default miles on your N2O motor?

how many miles do you have on you n2o motor(since installed), long have you been spraying it and how many miles were on the motor when you first spray it?

the reason for this question is i bought my car over a year ago with 78k mile 100% stock and i now have 91k. since i bought the car i installed LT, catless mids, and magnaflow catback. i was wondering if my motor would be ok to spray a 100 shot, its mostly highway miles.

Currently at 50k spraying 150 now, going to 200 very soon. The only other example I can give is my friend Blake, he has 109 spraying 125 on top of heads and cam running 10.4s. If the motor has been well maintained as far as oil changes and such you should be fine. Just remember the tune-up meaning timing and fuel must be very accurate in order to keep the motor safe. I suggest doing a ton of research before spraying, some get very lucky with inaccurate tune-ups and some don't. Just be on the safe side and do the research first. Good Luck!

thanks for the info i have done a lot of reading about n2o and i have a lot of friends using it. i was only concerned about the miles on the motor. ill start with a 75 wet shot then move up slowly. my biggest fear is getting a bad tune
