nitrous on nismo

JC671 · 09-28-2012, 05:01 PM

I'm probably, one of the longest running tenured member here running nitrous without any issues. I was one of the first as there was probably only one other person who made a post about it back then. I did my research and went with it.

I hate posting up my experience because the majority here are "Anti-N20". My thoughts are if you have no "direct" experience with it. You should not comment about it. People read horror stories or tales about it Nitrous because most the time it was unproperly setup. But the fact is, anytime you go force induction you run that chance of something going wrong.

I've read many issues here about GTM this and that, blown motor, oil starvation. So should we stay away from TT or SC? No, just ensure that you minimize the risks by doing your homework, work with people who have been working/using N20 for years and tune with UpRev. Good luck on your decision.

My rule of thumb is:

If you are asking about nitrous on a public forum, you don't have enough experience with it, hence you shouldn't use it. That's why when people ask me if they should use it, I tell them NO.

It's not like a CAI or exhaust where you can't really mess things up too much. When things go wrong with nitrous, it can get REALLY expensive.

People like yourself that know what they are doing, don't need "our" help and will be fine.

wtf is the point of a forum then? What's wrong with hopping on a forum trying to learn something new...

If you think a public forum is the appropriate place to learn how to properly install and use nitrous on your car reliably, then I can't help you.

I was the first person (at least on this forum) to hook nitrous on a 370z. Bought the car in 09, 2 months later i hooked nitrous up, 6 months later, sold the car...lol.

Really? I thought that you bought it for the car and never hooked it up before you sold it. I remember reading your post. Anyways, the only person I ever saw post a thread about nitrous before I got mine was a guy with a 40th Z.

How's the X treating you? I would have gotten an X if a dealership here carried them.
