Considering he posted at 11:30 this morning, I doubt that happened.
I agree with Crypto though, if you can't afford to pay, don't try to play.

don't do the dry shot at all. It's not worth the risk.

although saying that, running nitrous is a big risk in itself, especially if you don't have the money to do repairs.
which is the exact reason i gave up on my turbo kit. Cos i know i wouldn't have the funds if something blew up

Yeah, Like i said before, just wait until you can do a wet shot. None of us want to see you blow up your baby .

Yeah i wouldn't do any type of injection unless it was a straight bolt-on turbo kit. I would really make sure my engine can handle the stress and even with that said you can still blow your engine even if it was a fully built race car.

I mean i've worked with nos kits on other cars. My friends Scion Tc underwent a lot of mods to work with his kit i think he went with a 50 shot or more. Its like x4 bucks to refill it. He has now went turbo and doesn't need the nos, i would say he didn't use it enough to blow his motor maybe 3 times and than he was done.
