from past experiences, the LNF isnt a fan of nitrous. People blowing intercoolers and engines for that matter. Dont quote me on this but i think the direct injection has something to do with it.

I agree with u about it being direct injected but I've seen people squeeze with a low shot no higher then a 75 shot.

yea if you did it i would keep it with a small shot. If i were to do it, i would do it to help spool the turbo (im turbo swapped) and i would only run like a 25 or MAYBE a 50 shot. **** just makes me nervous

25 shot of nitrous is like 20 whp for 3 seconds. Is it really worth paying about 1k for that installed? Don't forget you have to probably get another tune for it as well.
What a bunch of scared people
A properly done nitrous kit is very safe, and much cheaper than any other method to gain the same power.
As mentioned, on the DI motors you really can't do big shots, as the fuel injected with the nitrous doesn't atomize the same way and can detonate, so you'd have to tune the car to run a much lower A/F for bottle which becomes counter-productive.
But there's no other way to gain that much extra power for a couple hundred bucks once you've exhausted all the normal bolt-on+tune options.
