Just get a compression test done and have a mechanic check out your engine to make sure it is in fine working condition. If it is then there shouldnt be a problem with either of those. I just installe N20 in my Max and I have 101K miles. I have had no problems with it yet. Take Care

Just make sure everything is running ok and it is installed right. After you install the nitrous spray once and then pull a plug or two to make sure you arent running lean. Oh and get a bottle heater and remote bottle opener. Im losing a lot of power because I dont have the bottle heater yet and its still pretty cold here in CO. Take Care

I have been running NOS for over 10k miles now and I just hit 145k. If you do decide to use NOS, make sure you at least always check the Number 5 cylinder spark plug. That is the one that will run lean on you the most. Check for white specs that shouldn't be there.

Make sure you have new spark plugs. Change your fuel filter, air filter and maybe a new fuel pump.
