Not a lot of people here have had good luck with it but there are some. Cloneman and I think Phil Long. I could be wrong. What asre your goals with the truck and whats done to it? Theres alot of good help here but you will find people will try to steer you away from NOS.

I used it when playing on the dyno with excellent results, I had the best results with a single nozzle dry fogger kit right between the turbo and a2a core, got all the way to a 300 hit before all hell broke loose

Re: Thinking about nitrous

Maybe NOS would be good up to a certain boost to help it get up? Would it affect boost control? If not, maybe have the NOS kick in when your boost is at its max? Just a few ideas???

So are you still running it? and what do you mean by "all hell broke loose"?

Cause NOS is FUN! And if used (read installed and tuned correctly), it has it's place on a blower or turbo app.

Re: Thinking about nitrous

A friend of mine put NOS on his civic. Instead of using any jets he just attached the line to his intake manifold. Which basically means he was running whatever shot the bottle was putting out. Needless to say he blew the motor about 1/2 a second after dumping the clutch. but.......he did say it felt like a 9 second car if he could have gotten it all the way down the track

Re: Thinking about nitrous

i used a small shot on my last build and it worked great i didnt get much time to play with it but it took out any turbo lag and cooled the intake alot with a 35 shot when i put my truck back together this spring i will see what it does

why? up the boost and go alki.

Ditto.


I'm not above using nitrous on a turbo motor but it would be more for eleminating turbo lag than anything else. Anyhow, how much pressure can a stock sy/ty handle anyways? I'm not suggesting his bottom end is stock, just wondeirng in general is all.

Re: Thinking about nitrous

If you think about it to use it to eliminate lag is gay considering the fact that there is 0 lag in "OUR" race. Unless you are going to race from a roll all the time why bother? Even then there are tricks to get rid of your lag from a roll.

Back in my turbo import days I used to "roll boost" a lot for racing from a low speed roll. Pretty much you just apply enough brake while giving it gas to maintain speed. The extra load on the drivetrain will get you to full spool in no time.

Or, you could just get a bigger stall.

Bingo. SY1117 taught me htis while he was out here from Ohio. Works pretty good. I was fairly impressed.

Have you run it at the trck yet? Ild be very interested to see how your battery is set up. I want to get mine out of the engine bay but have been clueless where to put it. I do not want it in the truck. If you ahve ran it at the track, what were your times? Do you go to PMI or BANDI?

Re: Thinking about nitrous

I havent run the ty in the 1/4 yet, its brand new to me, i bought it from a guy in florida, my 86 GN i used to own had a very mild NOS setup just to compensate for the lack of oxygen at our altitude, it ran mid 11z, since you are in the springs, i'd like to one day to meet with you and share info, and learn more about typhoons
