    Do you realize you can get a Zex kit for like half the money of the mods you just listed?
    And considering how cheap 3800s are have u ever thought that with the mods he has plus a 75 shot would spank a IC'd car.
    And if something bad should happen he could get an entire engine for like under 700 bucks and still spend less than throwing a bunch of mods at it.
    Do I spray not yet is the best answer I can give you. Ive been in a nitroused fox mustang and a nitrous 00 trans am.

    Bottom line YOUR opinion on nitrous is a terrible reason to cross it off the mod list for others Im telling you IF its done CORRECTLY its IMPOSSIBLE to beat for the gains.

    a 3.4'd 75 shot vs a cam'd IC gtp would not be a spanking. 3.4d gtp makes maybe 250-260 at the wheels if your lucky which nets you around 325 whp with the shot, there are camd IC cars making well over that number.

    nitrous can be a great thing none the less but it is over time alot harder on a motor than a properly tuned cam IC setup (s1x, S2IC) would last alot longer. LS motors and 5.0s take to nitrous alot better than a 3800. Bottles are for babies anyway. My tuner went 11's on no cam and no rockers but the thing also blew up. Sure you can get a nitrous kit for less than a IC setup but getting bottles refilled over time will exceed the cost of an IC in the long run. Bottom line nitrous DOES NOT bring reliability. Safeties or not. Its for people who wanna go fast the lazy way and blow shyt up eventually.

    I said his mods 3.4 and IC'd vs a 3.4 and 75 shot would spank the IC setup NOT the 3.4 plus IC plus CAM! I know a cam will make a huge difference!! The what ifs and eventually shyt blows up is pointless!! Umm how many people have had spun cam bearings after adding a cam!??
    The cost factor of filling bottles I understand and agree with however, Do you race everysingle time you drive your car? Most people wouldnt use the nitrous every single time they drive it unless its a track car. Again this isnt the 70's anymore and nitrous is far better than the people that think "Ohh it will blow shyt up!" It serves its purpose when done right its impossible to beat. Im not saying a cam'd 3.4 IC car isn't a great way to go what I am saying IS that CAM and IC cost a TON more than a nitrous kit!!!!
