Using Nitrous
Using Nitrous
I want to see how many of you guys use Nitrous on the road when you are street racing somebody. I know it's illegal as ****, but I know that some of you guys do it. And if you guys somehow get caught, what happens? Fines? Arrest? I'm still new to the nitrous stuff, so let me know.

Hmm...i don't know where you live. But in Virginia, cops have to have probable cause to search the trunk. Just because you got caught speeding, doesn't mean he can search the trunk or inside the car. If you can produce a driver's license and car registration. They can't impound the car or search the car.
I have used my nos on the streets a few times, I raced a 2001-2 celica GT-S and beat him. I dont have a bottle opener so I have to get out and go to the trunk every time I run it. I need a bottle opener so I can close it fast and avoid a fine. Take Care

hey for you people with nos installed i have soom questions if you guys can help me. i have read all the information about how to install and run it etc... but i want to get personal opinions on nos.
1. when did you guys have nos installed in your cars
2. how much nos are you guys squeezing??? (shot?)
3. have there been any extra repairs to your motor as a result from squeezing. (replacing head gaskets, motor seals etc...)
4. for the auto matics have there been any tranny problems with or without valve body.
5. on average how often do you squeeze.
these are just main questions i have. i don't have another car i can drive so i want to find out what people have experienced. i want to put nos but i want to know exactly what i will be getting myself into. so if there are any other things i can be on a look out for that will be great.
i am thinking to start out at 50 shot but i know me and im gonna want more after about a day so please help me!!!!!
thanks for the help

heheh thanks how much are you squeezing
I usually have 75. The past 2 months I have been running 100. Last night I was going to put in 125, but my bottle was empty..that might be a sign not to try it, but i'm not sure. I think if I want to go to 125 I will have to upgrade my fuel pump...

Re: how much hp does a shot give you?
Shots are rated for the crank.
