Default SRT-4 with NOS

I was wondering if I should get a nitrous kit for my SRT-4. What are the pro's/con's of having one? Well, the pro's being the quick boost. So what are the cons? [&:]

pros = hp

cons = expensive per use, can be very dangerous if not set up right, not healthy for your engine, IMO cheep (as in the easy way out, or the ***** {can i say that, if not im sorry and will take it out i just couldnt think of a word that would fit} way to get hp.

I wouldnt do it unless your srt 4 is a pure track car and u do a lot of money races.

I feel the same way, I've never been a fan of these types of power adders.

I agree with everyone else. That seems like you are cheating when you do that. Also, with the money you will spend on the setup and keeping the bottle full, you could nearly get a stage 2 kit for it, at least get a stage one. I would say spend the money on the motor. It's a MOPAR, why cheat?

I put a bottle in my trunk so that when I race people, they will complain and say that i cheated and used a bottle, It is always fun to pull out the braided steel line and show them that it is not hooked up and those ricer boys got beat by pure American muscle...

Amen. Just get a sticker for the trunk that says, "All throttle, no bottle".

Wicked. =D. I was just curious about it really, (I'm already getting a stage 2 =).) Basically on September 1st I'm doing these mods:
1. Oil catch can
2. MSD spark plug wires
3. New Intake (Could someone give me a good model of intake?)
4. New Exhaust (Need advice on that too..)
5. Stage 2 turbo kit + toys
6. Almost forgot to mention this: Mopar BOV.

Estimated total: $3540.00 Canadian Dollars. Basically 2478$ USD.

Any other mod recommendations would be appreciated. A body makeover would be nice. Does mopar make a body kit?

okay so K&N CAI, that's the intake? I suppose CAI stands for cold air intake. I'm still new to this stuff Perhaps I'll settle for just a paintjob instead of a body kit on sept 1st. btw, how much will the new intake/exhaust increase my hp?

Yep, thats what it means. The K&N Typhoon CAI and Mopar Performance exhaust are the best bang for the buck on these items that you will find.[sm=smiley20.gif][sm=smiley2.gif]
