Blown? I've got 50,000 miles on my engine, would a 55 shot Zex hurt it any farther if used properly? I was just lookin for anyone that has blown the block or had detonation in the d17's....preciate the responses...
I hope I offend you... Get mad

u might want to add an air fuel gauge( the good one that have a wideband o2 sensor) for pre caut. i use to run nitrous in my talon and had mine hooked up in a way if my a/f went under a pre set setting that it would stop it from flowing( i had an bottle opener) also one more thing make sure after the first time u use it check ur plugs they tell u alot of info.

WHOA WHOA WHOA!!! IK16's??? That 2 steps hotter than stock! You want like an IK22 or IK24. 22's are 1 step colder than stock.
If you run a hotter plug, it will be more prone to detonate.

^^^ Haha yeah I was going to say something because IK16's didn't look right because I see everyone with turbo or nitrous having IK22's. Im not familiar with the IK plugs though because I use NGK coppers and wasn't sure
Yeah, no reason not to get a wet kit. Install is a little harder, but not by a great margin. Even with the wet kit you are still gonna wear your motor though. I was thinking about getting it a while back but then realized it costs a good amount in the long run, cause you need extra stuff. But then again, you could spend like 500 bucks for 50whp on a used NX kit, now I gotta becareful...Its comin back

grammar?
i was doing the 50 but and the stuff go with the boom and the things that splash and crinkle then poof with smoke with 75.
^^^ That is what your post looks like to me.
If you blew up your intake manifold with nitrous, then you either #1. installed something wrong, #2. ran the wrong jets and went lean, or #3. dont know how to drive and pegged the limiter with the nitrous on for like 10 minutes.
