Re: [doc] To Turbo or not to Turbo

[Martin Gutkowski <webmaster@xxxx>]

You have to consider that the extra power does actually go somewhere -
ie through the pistons, and held by the liners. They don't like turbos
to be set above 6-8psi or you get squashed pistons and cracked liners.
With nitrous you might be looking at bent con-rods too!

How would you adjust the fuelling? Nitrous is not a fuel, it's just a way of cramming more oxygen into the cylinders - hence the bit in Fast and Furious with the tanks exploding is nonsense. You need to put more fuel in to compensate.

All,
This is just an idea, but has anyone considered nitros oxide injection? I've been doing a lot of reading up on it and this seems the easiest and most cost effective way of getting power outta any engine, [tho advice is to have an engine in a good state of tune, not too many miles]. Theres alot of info on www.nitrous.info , thats about home made kits [i'd buy a kit from a proper supplier in the states first tho, as they have updated equipment now out, easier to install n so on] but also tells u what to expect from different set-ups. Theres a fella in another club im a part of that has nitrous in a classic mustang, thats on www.americancustomni.homestead.com n see Mo, good bloke and im sure he'd b happy to give a bit of advise [i aint told him in writing this tho so ask nicely :)]

If anyone tries this, dont forget to post pic's up on the site :)

first time answering so hope this works, my two cents
