#19200, "Mileage too high for NITROUS?"


          

I have 92,000 mile on my 98' Talon. Is it too late to put nitrous in it. Will it finish off my 420A. I have put nothing but Mobil-1 synthetic oil every 3000 miles with a puralator PURE-1 oil filter, I always run 93 octane too. She runs like new every time. What do you guys think.

i second that. theres really no positive way to know if your car can take it unless you do a comp test. go to a local auto store and buy one there. it comes with instructions. not hard at all takes 10 min. do the test then thatl tell you whats up.

Yeah, do a compression check. Then do a complete tune up. Plugs, wires, fuel filter, all fluids. Make sure she's in tip-top shape and I think you'll be just fine!

AS long as the fuel system and ignition is running perfect, you will be fine. If the motor has been taken care of, a little lower compression will not hurt at all because the ring gap gets a little loser, that allows the engine to better stand the heat created by burning pure oxygen. Heat expands and with a little looser ring, your cyl walls are actually safer.
