Nitrous safe?

[2g spyder eclipse]

Well I am at 18psi daily driven 3" turbo back 560cc injectors fmic evo 3 16g all that good shit. Would a 25 shot or 35 shot be safe?

 

[Bud92gsx]

May i ask why?

 

[2g spyder eclipse]

Because I wan't to be just like brian spilner..... Of course because I want to go faster..

People who use nitrous are lazy right?:

Is it safe? Depends on how it's used...

Nitrous as oxidizer - yes

Nitrous as recreational drug - no

Hope you have a way to tune both spark and fuel!

Faster I can help you with that while not using nitrous.

Bigger injectors,255,and dsmlink,cams are bolt in upgrades.Look for a set of 264s or 272s

Not really looking to do any motor work. I'd go bigger injectors but safc2 limits me. Plus it's a 97 ecu. Not looking to shell 600$ on dsmlink.

Then I think im done here.Talk to us when you get serious.

Good luck on your turbo + nitrous setup with no timing and fuel control.

V3 Lite is also an option if you are too broke for Link Full.. You are really going cheap on the single most important component of your setup?

When things get all melty/explodey, you'll learn.

How did this get to me not being serious? All I did was ask if a damn 35 shot would work?

 

[LandSpeed-DSM]

Because you have to be able to TUNE to make it work. You cannot do what you need to with an SAFC to make nitrous "safe"

Will a 35 shot work? Yes

How long the engine will last is another story.

What LandSpeed and Bud are saying without a better tune solution, the life of your engine will be short lived.

Once you hit a lean condition, neat things(well for me) happen inside an engine, rings butt together, pistons distort, HG fail. Cheap valves fall apart

Now if all you want is a few Banzai pass down the track then hook it up and have at it.
Just have the truck and trailer at the strip for the ride home.

Plus for the money you would spend on a kit you could buy dsm link. A 35 shot is only 30hp for what 5-700 bucks? It's just not a great thing unless you're trying to spool a big turbo.

 

[2g spyder eclipse]

All I needed to know is what land just said.

 

[Isabelledc5]

Even if you're looking to run nitrous to spool a big turbo, it still isn't necessary; unless you're running an auto. Based on what you have said though, a 16g isn't a large turbo so you don't need the nitrous. If you still plan on running nitrous, spend the money on DSM Link. A SAFC will NOT tune nitrous safely. Spend the $600 on a proper tuner before you have to spend $1000 on a motor (not including the labor to install it for you).

 

[Colt4G63 also]

I have to agree; a tune would work wonders for you. Besides the fact that even if your engine lasted through a bottle of nitrous, you would then have to refill the bottle. A ten pound bottle is going to cost you anywhere from $45-$120 per fill depending where you go.

TUNE FIRST dont make a bad call over a few hundred dollars for link then u can run it the safe way and the proper way
