N2O.......... worth it????

Sounds like you were running a little to much spray, if run at the correct power setting/shots you would have been fine! Running forced induction is much harder on an engine, with a bottle you have to use it sparingly with a turbo or SC your on it all the time (lots more strain on the engine) in the long run!

Exactly. Nitrous Oxide is very safe for your car if you do it right and don't greedy. It's the people that don't know how to use it right that give it a bad name.

I know lots of guys running N20 on top of their turbos instead of turning up the boost so they don't put as much strain on their car all of the time.

Arashi, do you plan to use it a lot? Is so, you should just put the money toward other mods because you will just keep dumping money into the bottle.

Oh yeah, and don't let them cops find you with the bottle hooked up.

nah only when I need to or on the strip.....or in case im dumb and need the extra torques to pull me out of something........... I just got sick to my stomach when I could barely outrun a 4th gen Accord (my CL is based off the newer 5th gen accords) off a light one night, it really pissed me off

I just need the power on demand at any given time, i wont abuse it

1: Tire just slips and slides, but that have all electronic Anti's to combat that, also backing clutches to prevent hop-in upon corner entry... (small contact patches)

2: Front wheel goes up, front wheel is directly over back wheel, front wheel is behind back wheel.
:shock:

#2 ftw!

Nitrous oxide should only be used in the quarter mile.
If your going to use it best to get forged internals.

No to NOS, spend the money on a turbo, yes the NOS is nice at first but it gets pricey and its what ultimatly destroyed my first car... a toyota Supra :x It was awsome at first but the extra engine wear isnt worth it. and refilling it....... Get a Turbo, it makes the car faster anyways. NOS isnt all what its set up to be.

If you refer to N2O as NOS, you shouldn't have nitrous. The reason your engine didn't like it was because you didn't know what you were doing or your engine was already compromised before spraying.

Nitrous is NOT for "beginners."

BTW, NOTHING comes close to nitrous in terms of "bang for your buck." It is great fun, very safe for you engine (if you know what you are doing) and is cheap as hell compared to a blower.

Its not NOS, its NAAAAAAWWWWWWSSSSSSS..............as seen on the Fast and Furious.

Yes siree. And too much of it will blow the welds off your intake manifold.

I used nitrous on a weekly basis with no problems at all. the best thing about nitrous besides the big horsepower gain, is when I get rid of the car I just take it off the old car and put it on the new car with minimal mods

Forced induction FTW 8)

Forced induction FTW 8)

^ Forced-induction + nitrous, FTW.

Be it for an added punch on-the-roll or even to help start a massive snail on its way from low-down, it's all good. 8)
