wrong, ""little lesson on nitrous""

#1 its very serious ****, and can hurt you
#2 ive had a piston shoot through my motor from nitrous
#3 nitrous eats your internals after every so often you have to rebuild you motor.

nitrous aka dentist laughing gas burns alot hotter than regular fuel causing a bigger combustion thus the reason you get a boost from it.
because the nitrous fuel burns so hot it eats holes in your pistons and also wears your rings.

watch some youtube videos of nitrous gone wrong then decide if you still want it.



edit: another thing the ""blur effect"" is real when you go over 200mph you cant focus on anything that is a stand still and also if something was to happen you have little to no reaction time to do anything

You can blow you motor with a turbo, supercharger, nitrous, N/A if you don't know what you are doing.

I don't think he could get into any school if he types the way he does here.

Also, he may have been playing a lot of NFS: Underground 2. I pulled out my old copy and have been disgusted over the rice I have to put on the car to progress it through the game.

And finally, flames coming out the exhaust makes me think back to the Batmobile in Batman Returns...

i agree with all the info on here, but i say go for it.

sure, it may be a waste of money relative to other options, but if you can get a wet kit for a hundred bucks used like i did back in the day, it was definitely fun. though i would personally go turbo again before nitrous, but i'll never say no to nitrous if it was available...

^didn't see the video, but as somebody already answered, flames popping out the exhaust is a result of unburnt or still burning fuel coming out with the exhaust charge. this can usually be easy to obtain by removing the cat on any turbo car
