did you not tune for the n2o? how hard did you run the car? how much did you use the n2o? are you using colder plugs?

So I sold it and now I'm using my stock throttle body. Anyway, my car ran decently and really strong on the juice, but since I took off my front mount cold air intake it is running very badly!!!! I can't figure it out. When I use my nitrous I have been frying my plugs and it cuts out. Now my car bogs at full throttle and I can hear my valves more than usual. It is just running like crap. Please help!!!
It's a lot easier for people to offer help when they can understand what the problem is.
The engine is definitely running too hot when you use the nitrous. Is it tuned at all? It's sounds like it's running lean on the nitrous, but without knowing more I can't say why.
I doubt that the intake could have anything to do with the problem, unless you disconnected something and didn't plug it back in. As for the engine lacking power, you probably blew something thanks to the nitrous.
