thanks....i thought it was a good idea myself too :D


not that im conceited...lol

 

nitrous is the S H I T and all the rumors are bad rep i spray all day everyday and my car is perfect no leaks anywher no nutin and im doing a 75 wetshot

 

bump

 

As with everything, it's all about moderation. A car that's turbo'd with the boost cranked way up it just as dangerous as shooting too much nitrous or laying in too much of a shot at one time. Both mods should be done with internals.

-Because of the sudden and intense heat when using nitrous. It's highly recommended that you at least upgrade the pistons and con rods. This is because there usually isn't enough meat between the face of the piston and the compression ring. Too much heat without the correct setup and you're talking about melting and bending internals. Nitrous looks great due to upfront cost of the kit and bottle, but if you're really interested in more horsies, I'd look towards something more reliable and natural. Just a thought. I know there are many people that shoot nitrous daily, that doesn't make it the best method out there to achieve hp.

-honestly, if this is your daily driver. I wouldn't think of using nitrous. There are other ways to get what you want and keep the reliability of your car more modest.

-just a thought-

 

i thought when you shot nitrous you "drop" the temperature about 75 degrees?...

 

what other mods do you suggest instead of nitrous?

 

umm turbo or supercharger but the S/C is slow as hell so turbo or jus get a fast stock car dude

no one answered this

how many?
if doing less than a 15 second spray each time

 

ok i havent answerd one of these in a while...so time for a blue moon post...imma use products from ZPI since thats all i know(you can use any company but just using them so you can get the idea)...so here we go.

ZPIracing Scion tC All Motor Pistons 11:1
ZPIracing Scion tC Head Studs by ARP
ZPIracing Scion tC Stage 2 Head

ZPIracing Scion tC Crank Pulley
ZPIracing Scion tC oil Cooler kit

All that plus proper tuning should net you pretty close to 300whp

-Petey out!

 

U will need at least some cams and properIM or IBTs, better valvetrain and raised redline, meth injection to cool off for detonation and as u said, decent tuning.

 

bleh forgot about meth n cams. but with the ultimate you can raise the redline to like 7500.

 

can i get horsepower gains just from water meth injection? can someone explain what it is ? and a link for where to purchase a kit....

 

no its to prevent detonation/pinging/knocking. Methanlol is a higher octane but has less "power" you need more of it to make the same hp. When you inject meth/water it dramatically reduces combution temps cleans the engine and allows more boost since it basically retards your timing without sacrificing power. I dont know where to buy one, i made my own.

 

so would it be useful to run with nitrous?

 

ok...at a 100 shot for a v-8(all i know right now) its 1lb of N2O for 10secs....so 10 10sec sprays, or 6.666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666 sprays at 15 secs each...


so...double that for the 50 shot....

so roughly 13...just had to exagarate that a little... :D

 

I bolded the ones that'll do the power upping. The injectors don't really add power can support the 300 or whatever hp so I didn't bold them. Looking at these parts reminds me of a post in the ZPI forums. I don't remember who but if ZPI is what you know I'm sure you know of the post I'm talking about. He got, I think, like either 180 or 210 hp... But either way, it's not close to 300 whp. He also had a stage 1 head. Honestly, I'm not seeing much more than a speculative 230 whp. Even then, you'd need to spin your engine to about 8400 RPM to make 300 whp. At 8400 RPM, your mean piston speed will be about 28 m/s which is three m/s more than your average NASCAR engine and about five or so m/s more than your average F1 engine. Yikes.

 

well for my 75 shot it last me like 7-9 races 2-5 gear and all sprays from 3000 rpm to 6000rpm and in 5th gear from 3000 till i hit 125 then i let off the nitrous and it lasts you about 8 races straight if you dont purge it casue i have a purge kit and im trigger happy so i get alot less sometimes but it last for a while of fun.

 

But the things is that u need supportive mods to raise the redline, that's what I was refering to.
