im thinking of some ways to give a bit more power to my 1.8L n nos sounds good what u all think ill need for this besides the nos kit?
 
other than normal mods like intake, catback exhaust with hi flow cat, crank pulley, performance clutch...those are pretty much all the easy mods, the rest would probly be porting, internal work, custom turbo setup... ;)
 
i ran nitrous for 3 years bro. at minimum you will want to open up the airflow. get an intake and a header and about a 2.5" exaust and you shouldnt have anything to worry about for about a 50-60 shot.

he has a 1.8, no one makes a header for that (yet). but yes, an intake from a 2.0 NT will fit, and you can have a shop make up an exhaust with a high flow cat for pretty cheap. nitrous will yeild a pretty good gain in power, but nothing very drastic without killing the internals. just to be safe, i would do a 50-75 wet shot with a EGT and A/F ratio guage. take it slow and make sure your engine is in 100% working condition before you spray, especially the MAS, o2 sensor and fuel system. be smart with it and it will add a little fun pretty safely.
 
alright thanks alot for the help
ill probly see into working up a custom manifold, to 2.5/3" and ive already got the intake.
turbo will probly be a last resort due to lots of mods...n i dont have that much time to spend under the hood :\
