gober803 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 I'm thinking about installing nitrous on the next build, but i'll be running a T4 and am curious about using nitrous to spool the turbo off the line. If anyone has any info on this I would greatly appreciate any input you may have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elkidmino Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 LOL I thought you wanted this build to stay together. I just put the bottle back in the car this weekend so I'll show you and give you the low down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TainterRacing Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Nice to see some MI guys Other side of the state here What kind of kit did you install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natedog_37 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Yeah More MI people. I will have my N/X kit installed some time this summer. Going for a small 50 shot to help spool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natedog_37 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Amen to that. Now we just need a get together. Ok back on topic. What info are you looking for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gober803 Posted May 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 (edited) Sorry bout that my buddy (Bryan) posted this....Anyways what we are curious about is using nitrous to make boost right out of the hole. I've heard it can be used to launch under boost. Or am I mistaken. I wanna be able to get out of the hole.....now. And no kit has been installed yet cause I was unsure of what to go with. and dave it will stay together this time....I've already decieded high boost will be strip only....don't need 25psi on the street WhooRa for MI!

Lusion972 Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 MI = Mental Illness You guys are braver then me...I would never do nitrous. I have seen to many cars go BOOOOM from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah It can be done but I would have a built motor. Everything I have learned and read says don't Spray under 2/3K. But with a build motor I wouldn't see a issue with it to make up for spool time. But I have never done it so I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travs87tsi Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 seems to me a misfire system would work better to build boost on the line than nitrous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone has any info on this I would greatly appreciate any input you may have. You drill the jet port on the compressor housing at an angle so that when it sprays, it spools the comp. wheel faster. Just imagine blowing an air hose over the top of a portable fan. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emagdnim Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Wanting nitrous to come out of the hole is all fun and games until the drive line you didn't address explodes. So, What are you using? auto or manual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just imagine blowing an air hose over the top of a portable fan. Hope this helps. WHAT? i've only heard of it being sprayed directly into the turbine housing. when you back off throttle, the exhaust goes rich, you shoot the NO2 in turbine housing, the NO2, fuel rich exhaust, and high temps ignite, creating an 'afterburner' effect, spinning the turbine so it's up to speed when you get back on throttle. i've never heard of it being sprayed on to the compressor wheel to help it spin. that just sounds stupid. you might as well just spray compressed air and you'd get the same effect without wasting NO2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gober803 Posted May 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Trans is a manual, clutch is been upgraded and the motor is built well enough to handle the spray. no the driveline hasn't been upgraded but i seldomly hear of anybody blowing up driveline and i keep extra axles laying around after i broke the first one a while back. so this afterburner effect i assume you need something to regulate the nozzle timing and amount of no2 into the turbo?

Shelby Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 and here i thought you spray'd nox into the intake , or am i missing some thing you do know the exh is a fire ball at all times and worse durring boost don't you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 your seting still with the engine rev'd to 4-5k rpms,and you pop the clutch,if that don't give you enought to spool the turbo,, you best stop now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDX87Starion Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 I think this would be for those guys with huge turbos and huge lag on the street or dyno. Like some cars I have seen on the dyno where they floor it in 4th and 6 sec. later the turbo spools. With NOS it would get the engine and turbo spinning a lot quicker. A drag launch is completely different and NOS wouldnt work in that way. Disclamer: I'm no expert when it comes to big turbos, NOS, dyno's and drag launches.

Lusion972 Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 proper staging will have your turbo boosted...the only time you would need nos to spool your turbo is when your running a t-66 or higher. This engine has enough exhaust flow that your turbo will spool up just fine with proper staging. Why are people so quick to install parts that will cause more harm then good. Learn to drive/race before you put something else on your car. It's like that dude on this forum that doesnt know how to drive and stuck his car in a mud ditch then afterwards decided to get a bigger turbo when his fuel/air system isn't even upgraded and has the MAS mounted ON the turbo itself. Genius alot of these members are NOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
