It's all in the tuning. Keep it at 100 shot or lower and you should be fine. Warranty will be voided depending on your dealer. If the problem is engine related and they can prove you had N20 you are more than likely going to be denied. Stick with a 100 shot wet kit with a good tune and you will be fine.

I just put Nitrous on my 02 Z06, Mine is a two stage wet kit 75hp +75HP. I agree that if it is tuned well and you have all the saftey devices, it should last a long time. I won't be using mine a whole bunch, just when needed. :cheers:
