good idea or bad? i am confuced...

I have done some searching and the more i dig into it, the more confuced i become....
I want to add nitrous to my stock 04 RX8 but that would mean that i will lose my warranty right?
is it worth it? will it **** up my engine if i use it once or twice a month? (if that)
where should i go to find a place that undestand rotaries and can set it up right?

will i regret it?

I need a 411 (in english, meaning for someone that knows 0 about nitrous) how this would work.

please help...

I can't really help with the depths of NOS, but I can tell you that it will void your warranty. And i'm pretty positive that it can be done, but a correct installation and 100% accurate tune will be crucial.

and btw...it's confused.

I'm running nitrous, still have my warranty. Running nitrous on an NA vehicle is no harder on the engine then running boost with a turbo. Just don't try and overdo it by installing a 200 kit or you'll be kissing your intake goodbye. If you cant install it yourself, find a reputable tuner shop in your area to do the work.

You will want to replace your spark plugs with 2 step colder plugs. Stick to 50-70 jets and you wont have to replace your injectors.

You could install a flux capacitor and you would still have a warranty. When you go in to the dealership, if they cant link your "mods" to the problem, then there is little they can say.

It really doesn't matter what brand you go with, they all have to use N2O.
