sorry, yeah, the 250 limit i was referring to is the limit gm claims for ecotec's reliability

 

But we all know, by pushing that hp mark, GM may try to dodge the bullet should anything happen to your car. I'm actually very interested in the particular thread as I am also looking for details for prepping the engine for a very large psi input. I don't plan to use nitro, but if it ever gets made, I plan to get a Stage 3 kit for the 2.2L....

Keep the info coming guys...

 

because it is a great additional power source

why not up the boost and then throw a small shot on top of that at the track? Its an easy way to produce a little extra power and its cheap, that is why I would use it. Works great with boosted cars because you may see may HP than what the shot is actually rated at.

I will be using it on my car because its the cheapest way to make any real power on these cars.

 

well, whatever makes you happy, me personally i would set up the car on boost so that nitrous would never be needed

 

why is everyone so damn afraid of nitrous? i have never had a problem with it, i have with turbos and superchargers though

 

because nitrous is a pain in the ass for 1 thing havin to refill it all the time, also refills are 450 a pop in my area, its not a constant performance product only a few seconds so thats not much fun for daily driving, and also ive heard of n20 puddles happening which i dont like idea of

 

n2o puddles happen when you screw up the setup, 450 a pop is a ******* rip off, you can keep fuel economy and yet turn it into some fun when you want/need to, a bottle lasts more than a few seconds.

do some reading on nitrous, Carburetors are out with the 70's, progressive nitrous controllers exist for a reason. nitrous is one of the best ways to go.

 

street legailty is another issue as well

 

for emissions testing.....DONT FLIP THE ******* SWITCH

what the police dont know wont hurt em. that one is just too easy to bs your way out of.
"oh sorry officer, i thought i had it turned off"

 

ok, all im saying is if u have the means to be able to go turbo or supercharged do it over nitrous, if you only have enought to afford n20 then by all means go for it

 

ok lets just agree to disagree on this one

 

Just like all those people who are accidentally killed every year because they thought they had the safety on? Know where they're sitting now? That's right, an 8x10. Cops aren't stupid, in most states it’s a requirement for them to have a college degree. You tell him that lame ass excuse you're just asking for a ticket.
You know what cops see when they find something illegal with your car that falls around emissions and non street legal aftermarket? Revenue - you’re 100% guilty and you were aware of it before he pulled you over, try to argue that in front of a judge.

 

agreed lol
