how save is nitros on the motor?
thinking about putting some nitros in my car and just wanne hear what some of u guys dink about it or enyone can tell me how save it is on the motor how long b18c1c motor gonne last whit a good brandname nitros sistem and whitsh size wet sistem be best vor my motor whitout putting to mutsh stress on it
I have the same question about how safe it is but I am running a mostly stock B16 I know that a wet kit would be best but I figure I would probally become somwhat triggerhappy with it so the question is am I gonna blow up my motor because of using NOS eventhoe I would only be using a small 50 shot??

just don't put nos on if you are running a high pressured turbo.
Well you could put it on, just don't use it.

Nitrous is forced induction, just like a turbo or supercharger setup. Running low amounts on a proper tune WITH proper fuel management will not cause any problems. Do your research, dont just slap a kit on and see how it works. Do it right and it will be fine on a stock motor. Just keep the levels low. Running nitrous on a street turbo setup is just foolish, youre better off running a bit more boost on a better tune. "that things got enough nos to blow itself up" -Ja Rule......What a handjob.
like pete said, nitrous is forced induction. forced induction, in simplest terms, means getting more air in the engine. whether by compressing it (turbo/SC) or putting a gas in that contains more oxygen than normal air (nitrous), thats all forced induction means.
nitrous is the same principal as a turbocharger or supercharger. get more air in the engine. the chemical compound is N2O, meaning two nitrogen molecules bonded to an oxygen molecule. that means that 1/3 of the gas is oxygen, as opposed to the 20% (or 1/5) in the atmosphere. basically, it means that you are getting about 40% more oxygen than on normal air, meaning about 40% more power. thats nitrous theory about as simply as it gets.
ps. the point of this post is to help with the research that pete suggested.
