I guess I'm a little bewildered as to why people seem to be so nervous on running nitrous on this car. I used to run dry 100 shot daily on my 99 Toyota Tacoma and never had a single problem. Even ran it on an old Ford Ranger with no issues. This was back in the day when I wanted a truck to outrun the guys with mullets driving the stock fox body 5.0s.

All help is appreciated. TIA
There is always going to be some negative light when talking about nitrous. Everybody knows a guy that is friends with another friend that once went to the strip and saw a nitrous backfire and they talked with a friends father who is a "mechanic" and they agreed any car with nitrous=boom
