I had a friend that blew up his motor in his Civic, it actually was a nice car, but he's very ignorant when it comes to taking advice. I insisted that he should not run platinum plugs with Nitrous (naws to him of course). Well he went out looking for races that night and guess what? He fried his motor on his first run. A combination of platinum plugs, too much timing advance, low octane gas and he was way too greedy (150 shot). Anyway, he doesn't understand why I can still juice my car, even though I use "cheap copper plugs", and low timing and good gas. Some ricers, I tell ya......
