Can a low HP say 100-125hp shot of Nitrous be used on a supercharged engine SAFELY? Thanks for any info!

4.6 stock 2001 Saleen w/Roots Supercharger . The only mods I have done to the engine are a Densegharger , Bassani Non-catted x-pipe & Borla exhaust.

since you have a stock motor, n20 would be a bad idea....build the motor if you want serious hp, or just get a smaller pulley and up the boost 1 or 2 psi

Sure you could do it. I'm sure it would hook right up. If you're asking if it's a good idea. Well.... That's another story.

Yeah man you can add NOS to a supercharged car...Hell i did it...But you need to have it professionally tuned...Don't try and do it yourself...You will pay dearly in the end if you do.

I think 100th96cobra is right , I think I'll just go for a smaller pulley & a tune. I'm not looking to build the bottom end just yet, but oh its inevitable I suppose. Thanks Again for the opinions guys.

Nitrous can be added to a forced induction engine. But what you get is not necessarily a power gain from the nitrous depending on how much you spray.

On high boost engines nitrous is used not to add power in the sense most people think of nitrous, but to cool the air being forced in to the motor to make more power. This is very common on GTP's when they raise boost considerably, because of the lack of an intercooler. They spray like a 75 shot into the intake dry and it drops the intake charge and which causes the car to make more power.

Yes you can spray more but the motor needs to be able to handle the new fuel requirments inorder to avoid a lean condition as well as the added stress.

But if you wish to just drop the intake air temp a good tune will keep you safe and not hurt the internals of the motor.
