Hi there, Im new to the forum and i was just wondering if any of you pump nitrous in your car, besides filling the bottle it's a cheap way to get the hp gains you want on the track. I got a 75hp shot on my NOS system. What kind of HP gains have any of you tried on you lancer motor w/ stock internals?

nitrous + stock lancer = boom

be very very careful using that, overwhelming majority of folks on here who have tried it needed to get a new engine before too long

dont listen to them bro. ive had nitrious in my car now for almost 2years and my motor is fine like i tell everyone aslong as you dont abuse your nitrious you wll be fine

the common theme has been people who like the extra power, and keep wanting to push it just a little bit more. as long as you show restraint you could put nitrous in the 3-cyl geo

What shot are you running? Also, how often are you using it?

I'm guessing it's a tiny shot, which kinda makes it pointless. Plus, when are you going to use nitrous, on the streets? I hope you come from a rich family cause I don't think cops would be too happy about that.

do you think if you buy the forged pistons by RRM.. would nitrous would be compatible?

more so, the pauter rods will help as well

Yes, but the pistons are 800$ and install is probably close to that again. So you'd be spending 1600$ just so you can play around with some gas that isn't even close to legal.

So what does it feel like when one engages nitrious? I am sure it all depends how much is going to flow, the set up, and when it happens.

I havnt been in a car but from watching shows like "pinks" and watching a lot of racing its almost like when boost kicks in. Its just a boost in horse power that is very sudden.

you need forged internals but the thing is, The 4g94 is a bored out 4g93. The block is so thin that it cant take the spray in large doses. (I read this in a past thread)

I wouldnt reccomend using it on our motors at all. My buddy uses a 75 shot on his 2.2 ecotec but that motor is very well built. Its cool to ride with him when he uses it and it works very good but its a no go in our lancers.

see, the way i feel is that it is just as safe as a turbo, seriously...your just gaining instant hp another way, any stock motor can pretty much handle a 75 shot, or so says all the nitrous seller's sites.


On another not, Actually now that i'm thinking, do you guys get any torque steer, cause man when i get on the throttle my car wants to jump a lane to the right, I got wider rims and tires and it didn't help a bit.

LancerNOS

Thats why i have a remote bottle valve, nitrous is legal to have if your bottle isn't open, and i try not to race on the streets too much, well on streets that can be easily watched by the po po.
