Nitrous + turbo on stock motor...
Just a question...My motor is stock internally, my turbo setup is in my signature. I understand timing, Air / Fuel, Boost...pretty much everything that is goin on under my hood, BUT...I know nothing about Nitrous. That being said, my car is very reliable on the street, and will run a high 13 second quarter mile at the track. But what would happen if I added a 50 shot of nitrous? Would this be a big big disaster with the added boost from the turbo and cause me to replace my oil pan due to the rods sticking out of it? Or would this be a safe and effective (drag strip use only) means of gaining that little more that I crave? If I would do this, I'd use a solenoid that only lets it spray at WOT. What are suggestions? This is just an idea that came into my head today, that perhaps should leave, cause I have a feeling that this is a very bad idea.

If your thinking about doing nitrous 50 shot is not going to do nothing much. I don't think nitrous is going to hurt the car. Theres a member here running 100 shot and hes got a video of it (i think its patmx5..something like that). I would suggest a wet shot instead of dry and hook up a button so spray when needed. If you want to go faster, raise the boost. Why go nitrous?

I had a 50 shot on my '90 with the FMII kit and stock motor. This was back in the days where the tuning with the Link left a lot to be desired, especially with todays easy logging and affordable widebands. I went from 220 whp to 279 whp on the 50 shot. Spool increased about 1K RPM. It was instantaneous. I blew the motor at the strip though. I heard some knock but stayed into it to try and finish and snapped a couple rods and shot 'em through the oil pan.
