Scott we run a little Nitrous at Bonneville.... and so long as the tune up
is right there aren't many problems with nitrous other then the pressure
drop in the bottle..... I don't turn mine on till I get the car stable in
3rd gear.... this year we're going to use a helper plate system to get the
car up to speed in the lower gears and a Bigger Fogger system for the Main
Nitrous hit....

The one thing I think I did wrong was install a system that was to large
for the actual hp increases we were using.... the systems are designed to
work within a range and if your above or below that range the flow
capabilities are different then the manufacture specified.... and I think
there could be some problems with the actual flow of Fuel or Nitrous...
