50 shot max but that might be pushing it with stock internals. weak pistons and rods are at fault (mainly the pistons)

i've heard lancers can only really take like a 20-30 shot of nitrous with stock internals. but i think thats with a dry fogger, you might be able to get more power with a diffrent type of injection.

Even with forged pistons, I wouldn't use Nitrous with that motor. Lots of horror picture on this site will prove it...

At least, if you don't want to change them often...

You better get a nice turbo kit and get boost all the time, don't have to refill bottle, etc!

My 2 cents

Peace!

As I remember from someone, internals are a problem but the biggest thing is the ECU, it will not compensate for a lean condition created by the nitrous, which in turn makes engine soup. Dont try it man, Im serious.

Even if you buy RRM forged pistons and rods, still won't be good???

It should help, but even with that I wouldn't do it. Maybe with the help of a SAFC or something similar. But Nitro and Lancer motor is not 2 words that go well together.

I would use some turbo kit instead if I want speed. Much better performance in the long run and will prolly not kill the engine in 1 shot! Will kill it slowly

hehe

Peace
my .02 anyway!
