Who on here is running both?


cheers

 

Its coming..

 

wiat for it,, its coming??

You guys are ****ed

 

get one or the other. there is absolutely no need to have both on a street car unless you are that fast & furious. plus if you have no clue what you are doing, you will be shopping for a new engine.

 

Not true.

Oh, and to the OP - SEARCH YA NEWB.

 

Do you actually expect Z04 to know what he's talking about?

 

show me where nitrous is good for a street application that does not involve street racing or wanting to be fast & furious.

 

If that's the way you look at it then why even bother modding a car at all? Nitrous OR a turbo kit falls in that category. By your logic we should all keep our cars stock because we'd be "fast & furious".

Maybe you should try looking here. 95% of these cars are "street cars"

Can someone answer it, its what i am wanting to do to my car and just wanting to know who has done this

 

there's a couple people on here for sure...engine management is def a +...

 

true, but a F/I application is more acceptable as a modification since some cars come factory with that. adding something that has no use at all on a street car except for racing illegally is not IMO. given the choice i would boost, get a great tune and enjoy it because that would be plenty of HP on the street. but that still did not answer my question, show me where a nitrous application is needed, other than saying "it is because i modded my car" on a street application if not used for street racing fast & furious style, nitrous and a F/I application are nto even the same category.

 

dude just get THE TURBONATOR AND A 200 DRY...DRY SHOT...LOL

 

Well, you've shown your ignorance already. They both are very applicable on both the street and the strip.

Since when do you dictate what is "needed" and what is "acceptible"? Your argument is weak and based on personal opinion alone. Nitrous and boost are an EXCELLENT combination based on many factors, not only pure power.

Oh, and why would you need a turbo on the street unless you're going to race or just like to go fast. In the case of the latter, nitrous is perfectly acceptible as well.

 

I think GTM have done several cars with this combo. I actually was looking to add Nitrous to achieve low range, already got boost and methanol.

 

wow, you need a 100 shot to pass another car, that is very practical. also you might want to check the legality of nitrous on the street. but you stated that nitrous and boost are and excellent combination based on many factors, how about listing those and educating us with your superior knowledge (or is that just your opinion). but whatever, it is his car. he wants to do this let him, i will jsut wait for the "i blew my motor up" thread

 

"wow, you need an aftermarket turbo kit/intake/plenum/exhaust/blahblahblah to pass another car, that is very practical."

See, your argument is hypocritical if nothing else...

Yes, nitrous and boost are very practical and efficient for gaining power. The first and foremost ability is the cooling effect of a nitrous shot on top of producing more power at the same boost levels. Running less boost with a small shot of nitrous on top will make more power and be easier on the motor than simply turning up the boost. Compressing air generates heat, while injecting nitrous greatly cools the intake charge, reducing the likelihood of detonation at target power levels.

What's funny about your argument is the fact that running less boost and a small shot of nitrous is actually "safer" than achieving a particular power goal than on boost alone...

Since you're insinuating that I don't know the "legality" of nitrous on the street, perhaps you should in turn check the legality of running parts such as test pipes on the street.

This isn't a question of legality. It's a question of you trying to burn a "newb" to look cool and being incorrect in the process.

 

no, i gave my opinion on the subject. big difference. all i stated is that nitrous has absolutely no need on the street. if it did car manufacturers woudl install this as a option (yes, i heard that one was thinking about doing so) unlike turbos/superchargers. so nowhere was i trying to "burn" a n00b, i stated my opinion on what i thought of nitrous. it is cool we have different views on this subject and everyone is entitled to theri opinion. you think nitrous is good for everyday use, i say is pure crap that only street racers use. and there is no need to run both is you got a great F/I system set up and tuned properly, that is plenty of power needed for the street.

now if the OP wants to dod that, this will go back to my original post by saying if he has no clue what he is doing, he will be replacing an engine as well. that is rather decent advice for anyone thinking of doing any sort of a modification to their car. so what is wrong with that? that is nto a flame, that is advice.

i got nothing against you at all, you seem like a decent person. just get off the personal stuff and respect other's opinions. peace?

 

You see, the problem is that you have made a name for yourself by being a dick for no reason at all. Now when people see you post, it's like"stfu ." Opinions aside, maybe you need to reevaluate the tone you use when you post in people's threads. Everyone is entitled to their opinion- even if it's wrong.

 

Sure, not that I was ever at war. I'm just saying that nitrous is pretty badass when applied correctly - street or strip.

Performance Factory has been pumping out some VERY fast nitrous/fi Z's. Many of which are running low 11's at the strip and perfectly reliable street cars.
