Nitrous (this is all I've been saying)

blah blah blah, if nitrous is done safe its not a big deal. its the idiots that strap on a huge shot on a stock motor, install the kit half ***, no pressure gauge, with crap A:F ratios, and spray at 2k on half throttle that have issues.

its like anything. some people swear buy it and love it, some people hate it and think its the worst thing ever.

cnbc for car info? come on now.....

That was the least informative video/article on any performance mod I have ever seen. Not one technical reference as to why it is such a horrible thing to do to your car.

I would never put it on any of my cars, but that is due to me not wanting to fill bottles all the time. It is annoying...I prefer turbo much more, because it is always there, ready to go.

Not quite the reaction u were hoping for eh Dzel??:tup:

Wow! That rivals some of NBC's political stories for pure unadulterated uninformery! Next up, let's get The View's opinion of the physics involved in Space Travel!

that was wack
if setup right you can run nos safely

always have some kinda control unit to prevent spraying pass redline or below 3k
get the car tuned for nos you want to retard the timing on nos cars
dont spray more then your car can handle
know the difference between dry and wet systems
and always check your plugs they will let you know how the motor is holding up

a health motor and a fair shot of nos can be a mean, cheap combo ask the v8 guys

in comic book terms a
boosted car = superman
a nos car =the hulk

nitrous is bad for an engine in the same way that forced induction is bad for the engine. increased torque puts extra stress on internals not designed for those power levels (stock). if this is "news" to anyone, you don't understand engines.

TURRBO POWWAA!!....."Pssshhh!". IMHO in comes to to prefference and of course like anything you need your supporting mods otherwise ppl go Ka-Boom and start making Myths lmao. Short and Simple Pick Your Poison Guys/Gals :driving::tiphat:

Yeah, nitrous is not safe.

But if you use a supercharger you engine will run for ever regardless the size.

Its ok, bleacherrport failed harder this week........

But this article is almost as stupid.

PS: I heard manual transmissions are cooler than automatic:stirthepot::stirthepot::stirthepot:

:icon18: No it wasn't and at my own fault because I didn't watch it in it's entirerty. All I was trying to say is that most "kids" run nitrous because it's a cheaper way to go and abuse it "ricer" style. Don't get me wrong if you build your motor for nitrous and have a proper set up you can make some really great numbers. I was just trying to point out that most people abuse this and never go that route. Like Lothatrio stated.

i wouldnt even go as far to say you have to build the motor, just get a proper setup and it should be fine on a stock motor(except if your motor cant handle any FI whatsoever, then you have to build it out anyways)

i dont like how these guys are saying n2o is fake hp, it isnt, its temporary but there is nothing fake about the hp gains

Just so u guys know I have been running nitrous for over a year with zero issues . I did spend a lot to make sure it runs and sprays correctly . I also have not built my engine and drive my car hard as well .. I do see a lot more people popping their engines going the SC or Turbo route versus Nitrous .

IMO there is no denying that nitrous is a great option for those who dont mind filling bottles all the time and are looking to save some money over going TT or SC.. as Boosted Performance said I wouldnt run it on my car.. but again that is just because I dont want to have to deal with getting the bottle filled.

That's a nice set up you got never! Do you have a tune for nitrous? How much hp have you gained?

a random bottle thrown in the trunk of a dumbass with a civic, is exactly the wrong thing to do.

bro, i can feel it, i can feel it!!!!! (poof!!) :bowrofl: :bowrofl: :bowrofl:

This reminds me of some guy that had all the Nitrous lines hooked up, running them inside the cab...
and would have the co-pilot shoot starter fluid inside during a race :rofl2: true story, i swear.. also a Honda guy lol.

Dzel has no idea what hes talking about when it comes to any parts on a car its ******* hilarious

Who put a quarter in this girls ***? If that statement was true that would be like saying your mom didn't know what to do with your dad. But your here..... sooooo

That cnbc vid is probably the dumbest $hit I have ever heard. Generalized empty statements rooted in nothing. I have the weakest of all motors - DE. I have been running xtra 100-125whp (360wtq peak) for over 2 years across 10-15 fills. There is another guy on my350 running 180whp direct port on stock DE block putting down 430whp and 11.3 1/4miles. It is stupid people, bad\budget setups, lack of tuning, lack of precautionary maintenance that kills engines...no matter what power-adder. All power-adders push stock blocks out of OEM spec but most can handle some over headroom. The key is not to over push, read your plugs, periodically check cylinder compression, dialin a good tune and stay within tuned psi. There are ways to manage risk and control the torque, but there will always be some risk.

Exactly. Your engine really has no way of knowing how all of the extra O2 got in there. It has no idea if it's from a turbo, supercharger or NO2. Like eveything else, it's about the supporting mods and tune, not the power adder.

Very nicely said OldRice
