Why aren't you using NOS, /o/?

nobody knows how to use nos and if they do nobody wants to blowout their engine

>>14667025
Does it actually work,?
Is it a meme?
This is an actual thing you can biy?
>>
>>14667025
Don't have the spare money to be willing to risk blowing out my engine. Maybe when I'm not a poorfag college student I'll give it a shot.
>>
>>14667025
Because i can add more boost through my turbos if i want more power, with less risk due to ECUs actually playing with turbos correctly and rising rate fuel regulators.

It's also illegal to run on the street, adds weight and another thing to fill after skidz
>>
>>14667247
Yes it's a real thing. You'll see plenty of drag racing cars use it.
>>
>>14667386
p much this, I'd rather do meth injection for them gainz
>>
>>14667247
Are you fucking serious? Half of street race cars in america run nitrous.
>>
Serious question how do you calculate what kind of a shot is safe? I have a cammed 302 with roller rockers carbureted with a Holley 4bbl that's just begging to get a little zotz now and then and I hear they hold it pretty good but I dunno.
>>
>>14667025
Because turbo's/superchargers don't run out, and I don't live my life a quarter mile at a time.

That said, d love to get some on a motorcycle eventually. Something like a rtty Goldwing.
>>
>>14667413
Internals matter more than boltons. What kind of crank, pistons and rods do you have in there?

You basically pick the weakest part, guesstimate a safety margin, subtract the n/a output, and that's you shot volume. For example, you've got 500hp rods, a 600 hp crank, and 450 hp pistons, you have a 450hp set of internals. Subtract a 10% safety measure (or 20% if you're skittish) and you end up with ~400hp. Let's say the n/a output is 300hp, that means you can run a 100hp shot volume.

Guesttimate it wrong, your engine blows. Also,keep in mind nitrous produces more heat iirc, which means your rings need extra gapping and such.
>>
>>14667474
No idea unfortunately I bought it with no documentation. Any way to tell without taking the head off? Are there guys with laproscopic cameras who can check? lol
>>
I've got two of the big ones, I don't know what you're talking about.
>>
>>14667025
>NOS
I drive a 4 cyl isuzu hombre. It would blow up within seconds of spraying. Also I don't know how to install that.
>>
>>14667025
>Why aren't you using NOS, /o/?

10/5:1 C/R and 26psi, my ECU wont switch maps when spraying. Even a forged bottom end wont handle massive DET and gotta keep EGT's from melting the turbo bro.

I need to invest in a FuelTech system and rewire the whole car for that when a QSV and more boost will do.
>>
ITT: No one knows how to install NOS.

Illegal in mass or nah?

A 50 wet shot will run safe in every car almost.

ITT: No one knows anything about nitrous, and gets candy ass scared at knowledge they don't know.

I've a turbo and water/methanol injection.

Is it fucking 1995? Did I get transported back in time?

Because it's a known fact that if you run NOS and you've got a heavy foot, you'll blow yourself to pieces.

A 300 can take it.
Just spray till you pay.

>>14670410
You just need an extra large mower deck over your head. Grind the blades for optimal lift and cut holes/remove protection from the mower deck.

Lol

Lots of performance shops have it on tap. Just call around and ask if they do refills or know what shops do.
>>
>>14672825
I know there has to be someone somewhere who poured this in their gas tank thinking it would give them some sort of boost.

nitro/methanol injection is easier

im going to spray on my dsm just to get the turbo spooled up faster when racing from a roll. ill just do a wet shot and not sure if ill even get the ecu involved.
>>
>>14667025
Because:
NOS can't actually make car go faster.
And my car top speed is limited by Gear / final drive ratio
Holley are jews and were actively trying to prevent switch to EFI in NASCAR
>>
>>14673620
>NOS can't actually make car go faster.
It can if the car is drag limited.
>And my car top speed is limited by Gear / final drive ratio
That's your problem.
>Holley are jews and were actively trying to prevent switch to EFI in NASCAR
MEanwhile, Holley switch Pro Stock to EFI. NAscar is holding back EFI, not Holley.
>>
>>14673620
it makes the car accelerate faster you pleb
>>
>>14673660
Not him, but:
>going a higher mph = faster
>accelerating faster = quicker
>quicker =/= faster
If you're gearing limited, nitrous won't make your car go faster. Yes, it'll accelerate faster to that top speed, making it quicker, but not faster.

I cobbled together a nitrous system using second hand parts and doing all the electronics myself.
Its super easy, anyone can do it.

I ran a 25, then a 50 shot on an old POS 1992 Celica.
It was the most fun I have ever had in a car.
With the 50 shot the torque steer was insane at low rpm(fwd feels) and it would spin the tires in fourth.
In the end the clutch slipped all the time.

Turbos are definitely better as a power adder, but NOTHING can compare to fun of a nitrous system.
>>
>>14673728
actually keked out loud
>>
>>14669988
>whichever one is under the carb

once again, you sound like an idiot.

A wet system sprays in extra fuel to go with the nitrous to keep the oxygen to fuel ratio correct.

A dry system just sprays in nitrous and is very likely to go lean unless you can account for the nitrous through ecu tuning
>>
>>14673370
tell it to top fuel cars
>>
Because it's expensive and only worth it if you're drag racing
>>
> Not using Nitrous to cool down your turbo
>>
>>14669929
If its a 5 speed and you have a few things done to the motor theres no chance of you hooking with drag radials, especially with a 150 shot.
>>
>>14667025
Cause energy drinks aren't healthy.
>>
>>14667115
You don't like fun?
