You also don't need any additional mods to run nitrous on any vehicle. Just don't go all out and dump a 500hp fogger system on a stock motor. A stock motor can handle a little (maybe a 100 shot) more umph on short bursts. Anything more and you'll need forged internals that are damn near bullet proof

don't forget that the dentist has "the good stuff" (medical grade), that the driver can benefit from when the bottle's too empty to use in the car (not that I have any experience or anything like that!

Something about it being safer for the car or cleaner.

there is no need to get rid of your hypertech. just install a timing retard box and pull a few degrees of timing out. hook it to your activation switch and it will come on only when nos is on. a window switch is always a good investment also.
