I put a used TNTpower ring kit on my Showroom floor stock car and hit it with a 200shot. #7 ,4, 5 had holes in them and #7 melting part of the top and side of the piston. The car lasted about 2 months of hard Nitrous ( 3 bottles a week ) abuse then it gave up. It's not really a horror story becuase I brought it on myslef. 1 motor and countless systems, installs, personal knowledge, and taught knowledge.........needless to say mistakes won't happen again

My only horror stories with my kit is running out of the giggle gas to fast!!!!! But my buddy lost #7 cylinder running a 200 shot along with a H/C/I setup, but he raced a guy 5 times in a row when it blew, went through a full 15lb bottle in about 20 minutes!! His car made like 625rwhp and close to 700rwtq with the stock bottom end!!

I sprayed a wet kit without a window switch and tagged the rev limiter 
All it did was burn the MAF so it didn't work anymore and turned my clear lid into a black smoked lid lol.
I got lucky.

I think someone just got busted!!!
Speaking of busted.. My brother owns a 03 Cobra s/c and insists it's stock but I know he changed the pulley on the blower. When we raced (last year) he pulled me pretty good. He doesn't know I have N2o now so the story will be different. Anyway, the other day I was talking to him about his car.. bla bla bla and in the middle of his convo about his new exhaust, he blurted out "how well it works with the pulley and intake mods"
