a blow off is wasted money IMHO, there is no need for one on a diesel...and the nitrous well i just dont know maybe a 100 shot?? Im assuming you have stock head bolts too

The blowoff valve is good for these guys runnin these high dollar after market monster turbo's but for our stockers You couldn't bark it hard enough to hurt it if your tried. It sounds cool but they are high dollar toys just for the sound effects. Once you buy one they're easy to install though. Just make a post in BD's vendor area and BDPowerDave is on here quit a bit, he can give ya all the inside info you could ever need.

And if 75hp sticks are the extent of the mods you need to do a list of things before you hit the bottle. Fill in your signature so we know what you have.

All a personal opinion here. I think the bottle is a blast for those guys that don't mind tearin their motors apart for fun. I got a kid like this, he has more fun tearin his car down to the frame and rebuldin motors then he has drivin em. Nitorus is made for people like him. A mild shot once in a while might be fun but I would never be able to control it like that. If I had it I would be hittin it and I think most guys would, that kind of stupidity is what makes a men.

If you really want it I would at a minimum O-ring/fire ring the heads.

The blow off valve would depend on what kind of pressures your talkin about runnin on either of the two turbo's that will be pushin them to the limit's.
