Does every 100hose shot of nitrous equal 10,000 miles>>>
I have been thinking about getting a nitrous set-up to shoot no more than 150. Then I had a guy tell me that ever time you spray a 100 shot it adds like 10,000 miles worth of wear to your motor. Is this true or some BS? My car has 124,000 miles on it, but didn't have any ring grove at 118,000. Is it safe for high milage. I'm willing to learn. Teach me what I need to know.

Ignorance is bliss, whoever told you that does not know what he/she is talking about.

Proper nitrous use puts a little more momentary strain on your components, but does not "wear them out". Hell, it'll take miles OFF your chambers by cleaning them out!

If I lost 10K miles every time I sprayed, I'd have over 5 million miles of wear on my engine. I have been spraying my car since 36K miles and I now have 93K miles. Not a single problem with the engine. Now the tranny and rearend are a whole other story. Almost everyone knows basically what nitrous is, but not a whole lot know the truth about it. Too many people buy into the that unknowing people like to spread.

Well, two of them seem to *never* leave the garage and stay under covers, so there's really only three that have any chance of getting dirty.
