Question help!!!!

i am new to the whole nitrous thing , but i relly want to learn all about it. i have been hearing alot of confusing things, some people say nitrous will blow up your engine but then i read somthings that say its ok for a stock motor , no problem. so i mean what would be a must to buy with the "everything you need " kit. i just want to do the whole setup right , so i dont regret it later. i dont want a street rocket just a little kick without upgrading 10,000 parts. thanks alot.

Dude, read some of the stickies up top. Plus use the search button. There are thousands of post. Nitrous is as safe as you make it.

I think with a basic nitrous kit the other items should be a must for safe nitrous use.

Basic nitrous kit(I recommend a wet system)
Fuel pressure safety switch
Window switch
Bottle warmer
Wideband o2 sensor with a gauge
colder range spark plugs
also maybe a tune depending on nitrous shot size

Nitrous installed and used properly, will not hurt your motor if your motor is in decent shape to begine with. On the other hand, if you have incorrect jetting or get too greedy with an absurd shot, as with anything, there may be consequences.
