Worst ive seen was my pops best friend got a nice rod into the chest. Its safe when used properly. I personally after hearing and seeing pictures of this, I will never use N2o. And 323 arent built very well, N2o on a 323 would be asking to lose control of your ride. If you are thinking of getting it on your Z, get a dry system and run it through the turbine. ONLY a 35 shot, that alone will add about 60-70 horses at the crank. If you get a wet and do this, you may as well spray lighter fluid on 3 g and throw a cig. on it. peace

Oh yeah, the worst that we have repaired was:
-piston got bunched.
-destroyed block.
-destroyed first stage compression ring ( second and third were fine)
-destroyed timing belt.
-bent crankshaft
-cracked crankcase
-burnt out PCV
-valve springs got "poped"
-cams were destroyed

~and that was with a simple 100 shot wet system. So beware of N2o, its not beer, a little bit can kill your vital working parts.

im telling you what my buddy told me, he knows his **** too. so instead of talking **** back to you, i'll say this. a shot of N2o through the intake will give you about the same amount as the shot. but going through the turbine, being compressed, cooled even further through the intercooler, and being inducted straight into the intake, now that is a lot of power I would rather not have on my ride.
