Default Multiple power adders??

So I'll be running 2.87 pulley with my V2, ported heads and the "worlds greatest" 2v cams CMS blower cams and supporting mods... Should there be much thought to using a shot of nitrous on top. I imagine the small would but a purely gluttonous but a small Nitrous setup is pretty cheap and just figured I'd ask you guys.

Also, would it be something to consider to get Nitrous to col the I/C?


thank's
Mike

it seems logical if you were using a wet nitrous set-up that it could help to keep temps down and therefore give you more power...what kind of numbers were you looking for?

I'm not holding my breathe for any numbers but I will be over 500rw before Nitrous.

hmm could you just get something like a snow meth kit? Since you will already be putting out that kind of power.

I wouldn't bother with no2 at that point.

The Meth Kit is a good idea though, Its great for keeping temps down. But I wouldn't recommended using to meth kit to add more timing. The place that I had my car tuned at was telling me about a guy that had a Race tune so he could add more timing and one night at the track he forgot to check the meth level, he ran out and grenaded his engine.

I wouldn't want something like that to happen to you.

yeah i meant purely as a cooling method, for that very reason.

but to the OP why are you bothering to do any of this? In another thread you said you were selling it next year, unless you were kidding...

Yeah, although meth has it's place, I'm a little meth shy for that exact reason. I figured small 75 shot would feel real nice up top.

IDK if I would call a 75 shot small. But I would definitely be more afraid of giggle gas than I would a little bit of meth. But that's just my opinion.

Also when you go to sell it you may run into some issues, when a lot of people see Nitrous installed on a car it is an immediate turnoff.

Well I guess it's good that it takes about 15 minutes to take it back out. lol I'm not set on the idea, I just wanted to find out what people thought of it.

Lol yeah I guess. Than you could just spray your 75 shot on your lawn mower.
