Dude,
RELAX:) Don't let people get to you this easily. We are busting your balls here, nothing more nothing less. You want to cut a 1.5 '60 in a slicked and nitroused miata, no one's stopping you. I hope you get a vid. I want to see what it looks like to get out of the hole like a bat out of hell. We're challenging you to do it more than just plain hating on you. At least I am anyhow. So don't get your panties in a bunch:) |

I was going to start a new thread with this video but saw this thread instead, thought it appropriate.
another view |
........nnooooooossssssss!!!!!
:laugh: |
I love the second right before it goes off where u can see the scoop fill up like a fog machine then kabloowie
To bad they never showed the carnage that was the intake mani |
The camera guy gets a good shot of it as they back the car off the lane.

That's because nobody builds a Miata with only 200 horsepower to go drag racing (except you). Nobody cares about best 60' or ET in a 200 horsepower Miata. You want to impress people, go out and make it fast. |

This may be a noob question but, what caused the explosion? I thought nitrous could only do damage by causing your engine to run extremely lean.
|
nitrous is an oxidizer man IT makes everything boom bigger.
|
i like to call it oxygen on steroids
|
I know that, i mean i am not a total :noob:, but why did it blow up like that? Was there some sort of leak then finally ignited or something or was that purely detonation from inside the engine?
|
Solenoid failed allowing fuel to pool in the intake manifold.
|
Oh, dam so his manifold became a large bomb. Lol other peoples misfortune is hilarious.

Interesting thread, want to see how it goes with his project. Nothing wrong with trying a different route, good luck.
Nitrous is cool, what the hell, anything is cool even putting a Jet engine on the trunk of the car. If you can afford filling that baby bottle every five seconds, so be it, better you than me. To me Nitrous AKA NOS (LOL), is like been addicted to crack, heroin, meth and Kool-Aid at the same time and on top of that getting a table dance from some hot las vegas chick for half a second. Its your money, nobody is saying huge chunks of power cannot be achieved with "NOS", but I prefer free lunch money anytime... Good Luck on your project! |

nice call, u are correct, ment more along the lines of air on steroids
I say this to try and explain to most unknowing people that Nitrous is not a combustible fuel as in you can not light it on fire alone. |

If you were actually serious about making power you would ditch that retarded carburetor setup
