Default Just seems wrong.

Is it ok to run nitrous on a Vette. I always thought of it as a poor man's supercharger. I picked up a 98 with salvage title, so I see no point in dropping cash on cams and stuff I can't get back when I convert to autocross. I figured nitrous could be removed and sold when I turn it into a track only car. I just want to play with it this summer.

Is anyone running one on their Vette?

No body has an opinion?

Flame me if you need to, just wondering if I was alone in this thought?
