Or a street ported Series 5 NA engine on the bottle.Direct port NOS would scream. [/quote]

all stock ls1 f-body with just spray can go 12s on street tires, show me a stock NA FC do that on spray alone with no fuel mods without breakin apex seals...



even a highly modded NA. street ported w/spray won't touch it imo. not in the 1/4.

 

mines FC but i am not sure i want NOS, mainly for the fact it wrecks motors, period.

 

Only if it's not getting the right amount of fuel when you throw the switch.Reports say NOS is better for reliable power than a Turbo and won't cause any damage if you have the right amount of spark and fuel to go with it.But to each is own tho I guess.My next project on another FB will prolly be 12a to 13BT.

 

nitrous or boost, using either one to produce more power, higher combustion chamber pressures, will wear parts quicker. with enough fuel won't hurt your motor any more than equivalent boost with sufficient fuel, either one breaks motors if you detonate.



key is not to detonate, use nitrous and turbo, nitrous is a great way to spool up quicker and get rid of the lag on a large turbo.

 

The other problem with NOS is how fast it goes, and u can't just run like 5 1/4 mile races and keep hitting nos everytime...

 

My friends 85 shot lasts 22 races down the quarter mile.







BTW I thought you were changing your sig?

 

depends on a few things, tank volume, pressure, and nozzle jet size. it can last.

 

i don't like the idea of nos tho

 

Some people don't.Thats why I don't push it.Its good bang for buck hp thats all I'm saying tho.You could always run a Atkins supercharger. :smirk:

 

yea and how much is that :P



My dad was jus readin this too and he said some of the newer NOS systems have fail safes and newer designs to keep from doing damage to the motor....HMMM....ya know there is plenty of nos tank room in that hatchback.....................
