Default Nitrous addiction

Hello my name is Icefreezen and I have a nitrous addiction

No seriously I had some peer pressure to spray last night before the party and let me tell you holy crap. I was impressed with the results I had a extra 350 maybe more pounds in the car but I cant wait to see what it does at the track this Wed. I may have some traction issues but theres gonna be a huge improvement in my quarter mile.

Seriously do it right and really the risks are minimal....I took almost every precaution I could and I never heard one lean spike in my first 2 runs...and the power boost was just amazing

I would spray on any engine as long as its in good shape comprssion wise and in good running order its fine. Just to give you a hint 2 of my freinds both have 94 auto Z28 camaro's. Both have over 150,xxx miles both spray 100 shots and have been for over 2 years now. its safe trust me.

No dyno tune......but I do have a tune that is supposed to give me a little more safety while spraying.

i found one local for a good price and it seems like a pretty easy swap. mustangs with blowers or nitrous even turbos are everywhere down here but i havent seen any yet in florida running around with a 5.4 in their gt.

True i've seen only one other person do that kind of a swap though and even it took him a few months to make the swap possible. I would really like to see a 5.4 L supercharged motor come out of the Lightning and see if it can be put into our cars. That would be something to marval at since your already going to be doing that much work might as well get a little more. :shifty:

I just found someone asking about the whole lightning enigine swap......i'm dead serious go down that route and you'd have a monster

it would be nice but i found a deal on a 2v n/a motor. i'd rather do heads/cams and make that bitch sound nice. theres a couple people on this forums that are talking about or already in the process of doing the swap. just none around south florida. everyone here is into blowers. honestly, if you dont have 600+ hp down here you cant even begin to keep up. there are so many cobras and turbo'd gt's and everything else down here. the other day at a mustang meet this guy had 627hp in his 96-98 twin turbo mustang. i was like holy ****! and he was like that's nothing. im probably the slowest guy in the club.
