a year and half.

I spray when testing/tuning and the track.

I've ran over 25 bottles thru the engine since the beginning. Car has over 175k now. I put the first nitrous system at 150k.

I have had mine for well over two years. And to be honest with you, I spawned JAIMECBR900 lol. Anyways, I had about 120k on the odometer, and now I am at 166k with no problems what-so-ever. The compression of each cylinder is almost identical to the compression of the engine when I bought her with 100k on the odometer.

that's definately a good news...I thought only low milage engines could handle nitrous

Is any autoshop could check compression in the cylinders? Or does it require some very specialized equipment?

Any shop should be able to run it.

don't bother paying a shop to check your compression. go to autozone, pickup a compression gauge for $20, buy the haynes manual (if you don't have one already) and follow the instructions.

it's pretty simple and for less than what you would pay a mechanic, you have the tools to do it yourself for free many times over.

I've been running nitrous for almost 2 years with the mileage approaching 110,000. Compression in all cylinders are almost identical and have not noticed any drop since I've had the kit installed. I've ran as high as a 75 shot dry problem free. Do the compression check yourself, it's as easy as it gets. Remove your spark plugs, hook up compression tool, turn the igntion. Repeat with each cylinder.

or you could just go buy the compression gauge and DIY... might be cheaper and then you have the satisfaction of doing it yourself!
