I'm trying to do some numbers here, and according to trifecta, they did a 2.2 with Intake, Header, Ex, DP, w/ Cat-Delete, and cams, and it did 184fwhp, so i'd like to see how much power a 2.4 would do with the same mods

Its so awesome to see how these cars have progressed over the course of just a couple of years, i remember when i first came on the forum they said that 200+ hp was impossible from a 2.4 let alone a 2.2 and look now, with the newest parts and a tune, 200+ is now a possibility

so can Nitrous actually be applied in a safe sense as in relaible, cuz i saw a video of a cobalt with a 125 or 150 shot i think and the intake mani EXPLODED

I say as long as you stay below a 100 shot its going to be fairly safe, theres always a risk involved but most have no issues with under a 100 shot on stock internals

Nitrous is basically the same concept as boost ur forcing cold dense air (n20) just alot cheaper as long as u kno what ur doing not in and out of the nitrous which will cause pooling which is where u get the backfires from and always run ur jet a lil richer then u need like I always say I'd rather foul plugs then melt pistons

nooooo! Ha that would lean it way out like puttin a sc or tc and keeping stock tune and injectors wet kits are the best way where u have a fuel solenoid that comes off the fuel rail and ull have a jet size .18 etc and same on the other side but nitrous and a jet like a .40 then they mix into a fogger nozzel into ur intake
