Ok so I want to add some nitrous to my car. Seems like a pretty easy way to get alot of horsepower quick. The car is a 2004 Ralliart and the only mod so far is an AEM shortram and an RRM piggyback in the mail. Will be installing the piggyback friday or saturday.
Basically what i need to know is if its okay to add a nitrous system this early in the modification process. I have seen other say that the 4G69 handles it well. I am a little sketchy though and i dont want to harm my engine. So are there any upgrades i need to do before i drop in a nitrous kit?
Also, when i do buy a nitrous kit, what is the best kit for the 4G69? How big or small should the kit be?
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank You so much.

 

I personally would only run a 75 shot but Ive heard of people using a 100 shot on a stock block but I wouldn't push it.

I'm pretty sure you've got to retard the timing when spraying, so you should probably get a tune after the mods you install.

How many miles are on the motor?

 

ive got 95000 miles on it right now. Im definately getting a tune done when the piggy back gets installed. any idea where i can get a tune done though?

 

Ehhh... At 95k I would take alot of precautions with nitrous.. Get the exhaust completed first for sure...I would do a compression test to make sure everything is on the up and up. I wouldn't start with more than a 50 shot for your situation. And wet kit only... As for the piggyback it doesn't mix with nitrous.. Sooo you got somethings to think about... But I'm all for nitrous I've shot as much as a 115 shot at the track on the stock bottom.

 

at 95k...eeehhh....you may wanna buy the high performance gasket set from RRM as well. Too many issues at this stage and you really don't have any cheap tuning solutions.

 

what kind of problems can i expect with my motor at this kind of milage?

 

Just a lot of wear and tear (valves, seals, etc.) Then you have weakened components due to everyday driving.
