Well how you were talking about how people dont really know that much about cars.
Im recruiting in the Northwest Burbs of Chicago. Where im recruiting at, people have money avg. house this is for a SMALL HOUSE is 450,000. So as a result parents buy there kids whatever they want, and since cars are the big thing around here or lately, the kids say "mom/Dad can i have this" and naturally the parents buy it (sorry if i sound callous, im just used to doing things on my own) and then these kids start talking about MODS and next thing you know you got some fool rolling around with NOS, turbo.. you name it he has it.. and its common especially out here...

natually i agree with you on the sales part and using it as a tool, i really do. it just happens to be how it is where im at. I really appreciate the advice though.. truly i do.

btw, is anyone from around the Chicago area here?

most people dont know about cars so you could throw an intake and some exhaust on it and just based on sounds alone you'd get attention.

Well the thing is nobody believes in miracles until they SEE em, I am in the process of finishing my cyl head which will cost less than 1000 with the camshaft regrinded (the same stuff than RRM) then I will make a molding of the combustion chamber to order some custom forged pistons maybe 10.5 compperssion to gain the low end torque I might loose after the porting and stuff. I KNOW I can get 30 WHP from just a cyl head and cam. Add the RRM pulley, my stocklightenned flywheel(which will arrive this next thurday and I will start a thread about it with original weight and final weight) ,CAI, 1-3/4 runners header , complete 2.5 inch exhaust with HF cat, ported INTAKE manifold , MAF eliminated, Throttle body collant warming ELIMINATED, EGR eliminated.., GREDDY EMANAGE ULTIMATE (for tuning).

HONESTLY NOBODY BELIEVED IN JESUS WHEN HE ARRIVED but what a bout now ahhh


PS forgot to mention the lightenned CRANKSHAFT and the 4G64 pulley kit

And N2O is not N/A....it is a form of forced induction.

Well F/I is when you FORCE something inside the combustion so that pressure levels will arrise. NOS just accelerate the proccess of the combustion and produces a lot more power by making the A/F mix denser because of its frezzing temperatures. I don't think that NOS should be accounted as F/I, if you do so then water injection will be F/I too. The NOs is not "forced" as the turbo does (which forces the air by means of pressure) the NOS gets sucked by the air intake stream.

If you use N20, do you need an ECU to retard timming to don't have detonation ?

Depending on the size of the shot I think people had already used a 50 shot with no problems however going more than 50 can be dangerous without retarding the timing. I think there a guide that says how much ignition timing must be pulled
