Nitrous, Anyone use it?

pokeyl

Low cost, under 2K, only use it if you need it. 150HP. Will be installed with a electronic progressive controller, mapped to RPM and gear, WB O2 auto-cutout to protect the motor, and all stealth install. This would be a two bottle system remote valves at the bottles. All located in the spair tire area. Goal would be 400-450 RWHP in 4th ,5th , and 6th gear. around 350 in 2nd and 375 in 3rd. All with a smooth rise in power so as not to loose traction.


A guy at work has a 525 RWHP TT 350, and he can't get traction to use it. I want to be able to hook-up. I have been down the turbo road see bike in Avatar.

The only Nitrous worth a damn is the stuff off the top of a Redi-whip can or from my Dentist.

Nitrous is a renewable power-adder. You're going to pay for the system and pay everytime you press the button, hit the rpm switch, etc. If a person can save 2K for that system.... save some more and get a s/c. The power is always there, no need to refill a bottle, and no need to worry about bottle pressure/temp.

Last time I used nitrous, I was driving a slow-elica. NO2 is a waste of money if you ask me.

Stealth! At $25 a fill, and less than a bottle a month. SC is an option but I do not want to add weight to the front of the car. Fiberglass bottles in the rear is the plan. I drive this car 110 miles a day, on days I can't ride my bikes. I'm looking for the extra power to run up with the C6 vettes say 425 HP.

Is nitrous hard on the engine?

It is all in the tuning. 150 shot sounds like alot for a not nitrous built motor. I am not that familiar with it on tight clearance motors of the import kind but on domestic v8's they set the piston ring gap pretty high. I little more blow by but much saver for the motor. My s14 had a chevy 327 what was gapped for NOS and all it had was 150 shot. I have heard guys with BB chevy's runing 500 shot, but those are dedicated drag cars. I guess it depends on the motor. I talked to a tuner in Ft Worth that recommended only a 50 shot and no more for a stock S10. The owner got bored and put the 100 shot jets in it. He blew his intake through the hood.
