Default Fast Intake Burst Panels?

This was brought up in another thread and I didn't want to highjack but has anyone used these Fast Intake Burst panels on a nitrous setup? And if you have, does anyone have experience with one of these bursting?

I was under the impression that these were designed more for boosted applications and the designed to burst if the manifold pressure was too great. I am curious if these would help in the event of a nitrous backfire?

Yes, they are designed to burst instead of the manifold bursting into a million pieces. I have seen it work on an LS1 F-body drag car we built. The customer wasnt use to the transbrake and when he left it back fired and the burst panels did there job.

Cool thanks for the help. Like I said, I thought they were designed more for boosted applications!
