my friend had it on his and didn't have any problems. all he was running was a test pipe, boost controller, and a 35 shot which with the nos he gained like 47 hp from the 35 shot jet. he also ran a 12.6 with the mods listed. i also have a kit but havent put it on yet, probably going to use it to help spool the turbo kit that i am putting on my car. i just reccommend using no more than a 50 shot unless you have something where you can retard the timing on the car.
as far as long term effects i don't know. his car got totalled. i would think if you are using a little jet you should be fine. not to compare the evo engine with a mustang engine because ours is built for turbo and we have smaller displacement but my brother runs a 175 shot in his mustang 5.0 all day long, on stock bottom end has has no problems whatsoever. i know bigger displacement can take more.

The stock block can definitely handle it up to a certain point. Just make sure that you are adding enough fuel and get it tuned for the nitrous. A direct port set-up would be the safest.

I plan to throw a 35-50 shot in ther eventually. I just need the money. I would advise a wet setup versus a dry setup for reliablity issues and making sure enough fuel is mixed with the nitrous.

is this direct port?

35 sounds reasonable. throttle response or is it programmed for certain rpm, like lower rpm or mid level up high rpm?

i found that NOS is the devil... you have the happy button hooked up, but spray too long? you'll be buyin new valves, new pistons... yadda yadda... nos can be fun, but trying to find someone to fill you tank can be a bastard sometimes... i ran a 120 shot direct port wet setup on my prelude. stock bottom end, stock cams. ended up geting a skunk2 set of valves AND retainers cuz i roasted a valve sooo bad, it looked like a black toothpick when we pulled it out. no head on it at all... lol. no probs with the piston tho. lucky. but i found getting the right person to install nos, a nightmare. filling the bottle, had to drive 50+ miles to do it. then maintaining bottle preassure, all the safety regulations (for track use) blah blah... i was better off with a SAFC or new ecu. i did however find a guy who put medical grade NOS in my tank... OMFG that hit soooo hard when i squeezed. i splattered a saleen mustang with a blower. he was pissed, but his girlfriend/wife, was even more pissed... she was hitting him at the next light, i was laughing soooo hard!!

I run a wet 50 shot with a gt30R soon to be a gt35r with no issues. I of course also have all the proper supporting fuel modifications and an autronic pnp to keep things in check which is probably why I haven't blown anything up yet.
