conan7772 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Ok, I feel my GTS-T is feeling a little neglected so I'm considering a 100 hp shot of NOS on demand on WOT. RB25/30 - GT3076R - Haltech Platinum 2000. 337 rwkw. Good move ?, or should I save the dollars and wait until my kids pillage it all.

zebra Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Do you drag race it? N2o on the street is an instant do not pass go do not collect $200 moment Ps NOS is a brand Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/398534-to-nos-or-not-to-nos/#findComment-6329579 Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRATED Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Do it.... but do it properly.

WHITER33GTS-T Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Mine is setup to help bring on boost and works well. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/398534-to-nos-or-not-to-nos/#findComment-6329707 Share on other sites More sharing options...
conan7772 Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 I don't drag it. I'm hoping for a setup which the Haltech can introduce Nos only in certain gears , revs and at WOT. But right now my injectors are maxed , my intercooler has 2 1/2 in and out, and I'm running stock manifold. Will I still get anything more with NOS ?

As long as your exhuast is up to the extra flow, yes you will see great gains. The stock intake manifold makes it easier to get a more even distrobution from single point of injection. Your intake pipework etc wont affect the amount of extra power you can gain from nitrous. The trick is to get the nitrous consistant. To do this you will need a bottle pressure gauge and heater on a pressure switch. Is the engine still stock internally? If it is, I would suggest no more than 75ph fixed shot or 100hp progressive shot. If it's built, then think 100 fixed and 150 progressive, depending on boost pressure etc. Cheers Justin Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/398534-to-nos-or-not-to-nos/#findComment-6331178 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTScotT Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Put a twin scroll 3788R on it instead! I dont usually go for performance in limited quantities.

Id prefer to know I can hoon interstate if I wanted to LOL Le mans 24hr of Hoon So get a G size bottle Will lift the bonnet and intake manifold 10ft off the ground if it backfires though lol Yeah... leanouts/nitrous backfires are pretty spectacular. Only ever seen them on carbied engines though... not saying it can't happen, but I've never heard of a backfire on a FI efi engine (engines that don't mix air and fuel inthe intake manifold 'plennum'). I think it's a great 'power adder'. There is no real trade off for the extra power when you'r not using it. For an extra 100hp of kick, you don't have to use a bigger turbo- more lag, you don't need bigger injectors- fuel economy/tune resolution, your not shifting the power curve up or down- if your using cams/cam gears, there's very minimal down time for install and it dosn't cost a bundle. Not to mention the dyno curve goes straight up at activation- ha ha ha!

conan7772 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) Thanks for all that info. Yep car is built forged bottom end, Poncams, and Plazaman plenum. Exhaust is stock ex manifold to 3 inch. Intercooler has 2.5 either side. 3076 is 0.82 Ar, should have gone 1.06. Running 21 psi now, does have more in it. it does feel like its choking at high rpm Edited April 27, 2012 by conan7772 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/398534-to-nos-or-not-to-nos/#findComment-6334174 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHITER33GTS-T Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 There was a dyno comp a while ago with a 180sx running nos. The gas was still on when it hit the rev limiter and blew cooler pipes off. lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/398534-to-nos-or-not-to-nos/#findComment-6334324 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYTSKY Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 IMO you only need it to bring on a big turbo. If you want more power add more boost. If you cant because something is maxxed then you dont want to add nitrous to it.
