Screaminfast Jun 18, 2001 08:28 PM

Do I count, Cheston, I just bought mine the other day. It'll be here this week.

Jane97SE Jun 18, 2001 09:04 PM

Don't forget about me! :D

capmaxima99 Jun 18, 2001 09:24 PM

I want to have some sort of forced induction. Maybe NOS within the next 2-3 months.

I'm running a very under performing NOS kit. It just needs more tuning. My goal is to push around 230hp and run low 14s.

Lordrandall Jun 18, 2001 09:53 PM

I'm a wanna-be boostaholic.

:D

guess cheston's got yet another bragging rights...:(

dmbmaxima2k2 Jun 19, 2001 03:46 AM

hmmm, i wonder what i have???

92ZexMaximaSE Jun 19, 2001 04:48 AM

I wish they made superchargers for us 3rd Gen folks..

P.S.
Yes, my car has the giggly stuff too.. By the way I need new exhaust stud bolts.:bawling:

Sonic Jun 19, 2001 05:49 AM

Cheston, it was the JCW NOS kit, and the cost is right around $400. Alot of people kept telling me that it was backordered and that they were on a 'waiting list', but I got mine 7 days after I ordered it. BTW, MORE POWER!!it may be too much, but think of the bragging rights.

The New CLIMAX Jun 19, 2001 07:18 AM

Boost for me. S/C

Cumalot Jun 19, 2001 07:19 AM

Personally, I'm saving up for a supercharger. NOS is good and all, but seem like a bit too much hassle for me. Well, maybe when I get the supercharger, I'll add on a 50-60 shots of NOS. :D

VQ30DET internals, then you can keep it.

Sprint Jun 19, 2001 12:27 PM

you guys keep throwing around VQ30DET internals because you heard a little something something.. but let me tell you its a far more expensive project than you guys think.. you think you can get internals and bump your hp and not get a tranny and other stuff too.. :laugh:

i am not even going to start.. and i havn't even touched the iceberg

Sprint, I WILL NOT SC and NOS my car, the tranny will blow disgustingly fast. I know better.

your j/k'ing right ? Q45 tranny ?
i'm not even gonna start to explain

People might take offese but
it seems a lot of people talk about the internals of engines and swapping trannys and motors and stuff...and they have NO IDEA wut their talkin bout
I've spent LOTS of time in garages and even more time reading up on this kind of stuff and i've even seen it done lots of times and still i would not open my mouth and speak on such a subject because i know that i don't know anywhere near as much as i should...

point is unless you've gotten your hands dirty and taken apart a motor then don't advise someone else on that topic..
if you haven't changed a clutch or taken a tranny off a car don't tell someone else it's easy ..

changing takes and installing exhaust are EASY ... it's nothing compared to wut REAL mechanics do all day.. i'll even venture to say NOS isn't that difficult of a job compared to real engine work ..

Sonic Jun 19, 2001 01:24 PM

Ok, one last time I WILL NOT PUT BOTH A S/C AND NOS IN AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CAR!!!

Shhhhhhh.. yer tempting me. Gotta wait until the tranny dies!

Synki Jun 19, 2001 02:45 PM

Cheston-

I personally would either go with one or another. If you want to use both, im sure a 40 shot will be safe. You will def need a new fuel pump and fp regulator. Im not sure how well the internals will hold all that power but if Thomas (SX7R) internals can withstand 300hp and 400lbs, then you stand a change. BTW, kiss that tranny good bye though. :)
I just dont want to see your tranny or motor go bye bye ya know? I was thinking the same thing but i have enough worries as is.

delio Jun 20, 2001 03:13 PM

Hey do I count?
 
I just got this big box in the mail today... It says "Boost Inside" Kinda like the intel logo. Wonder what it could be.

Cumalot Jun 20, 2001 09:16 PM

If I do add a NOS with the supercharger, I most certainly have to make my tranny stronger someway or another. First thing first. :) I know it can be done, I remember a member here who has both a supercharger and NOS. Forgot his username though. Maybe a 40 shot is good enough, too high of a shot is a bit risky.

I might even do a 5 spd. tranny swap. cough**Sprint**cough**cough, you hear this? :p

sparkymax96 Jun 20, 2001 10:45 PM

I'm boosted. I need one of them there fuel/air controllers though. Anyone know where I can get one for a good price??
