Nitrous on an SRT-4?
On a sreious note, I WAS considering maybe a 30-50 shot. Did you use the NOS until boost or during boost? I currently have Stg 2 w/ toys and plan to keep 104 octane in the tank 90% of the time. Would a 30-50 shot be OK?
YES! I knew it was only a matter of time for an uninformed person to jump in here and try to say how horrible nitrous is and that a motor must be custom built for it.
best pass of 11.372 @ 127.1 mph, stock axles, stock motor, ran 20-30 bottles through that thing last year with EASE (probably quite a bit more) with no problems.
Nitrous is no more dangerous to your vehicle then turning up the boost or putting a bigger turbo on it. Proper tuning and equipment will prevent damage to the motor (cutout switches, window switches, fuel pressure switches, hell they even make afr switches for these) In a small sense it's great because the cooler intake temps with a proper tune will have less detonation then running higher boost on a small turbo.
and furthermore, nitrous is never cheating, it's just another power adder on a vehicle. Only downside to it is it puts me in a higher class with having two power adders on the vehicle as opposed to one

Did you do all the work yourself? Or did you have someone do it for you? I would be afraid to try Nos in my car b/c I am not sure how to do it and I dont know of anyone who does in my area, but then again, I am new to this.
haha nice jeff.....
nitrous is just fine if you're smart about it. it's the idiots in civics that throw a 150 dry shot on a 1.5 sohc motor with 150k on it that cause all the false beliefs about it.

nobody up until now (AMS has my car for prototype work and building a full raceblock for it) has touched my car but myself. I did all the install and tuning work myself, though I do have about 5-6 years experience on the older 2.0 dohc chryslers and the srt combined already so I have a leg up on most people jumping into it fresh.
