you should be good but one thing....from running a 75 shot I ended up blowing up a head gasket.....i also had 145k on my dx engine.....i retarded the timing and i had colder spark plugs to burn the nitrous better.......only problem....normal driving your running rich due to you not burning all the gas well in the cylinders.....so you run a little slower and much richer.....but when you spray it's perfect and you don't LEAN out.....lean is a scary word.....but you should be able to handle a 35 up to a 50 shot as long as your shit is updated...to make sure everything is running well i would do a compression test and a leak test just to make sure that your seals are good...and then proceed to blow that mutha up!!!

So you say do a compression test and make sure everything is up to date. Make sure what is up to date and how do i do a compression test?

Go to any creditable shop and ask them to do BOTH of those test. One of them has to do with the radiator hose and the other has to do with the compression in each cylinder. I'm not sure of everything they do but I know I could of used it before I put on the nitrous.
