I run a 200 shot on my mustang for 2 years and have not had many problems yet. The car is running 11.80 on motor and 10.98 on the juice. We are in the process of upgrading the combo. Recieved a spider intake today and plan to install it with a bigger fuel pump system. The Nitrous EXPress system going on will have up to 500 HP. We have had problems using the juice but that was during the learning curve of what not to do.

They don't want to race now. The mustang is going to be at MIR Sunday, weather permitting. We got the some of the broken stuff fixed but we haven't put on the spider intake. It should run deep into the 10's hopefully.

Basicly in this world of high performance, the faster you go the more money you spend. As for your engine lasting for a while, if it is in good shape and you don't abuse it, it should last a while. Don't be stupid with the nitrous. Follow the guidelines in the manual and you shouldn't have a problem.

8 years, on my car when it was a 350c.i...refilled the bottle about 100 times in that span of time..engine ran fine when i took it out to stroke + rebuild it..had 90,000 miles on it. didnt smoke,didnt burn oil, top of the pistons +valves looked fine..only reason i stroked it was to get more top end..
