I sprayed my car today and watched the speedo. While it doesnt feel like a big gain when it comes on, the speedo told a different story. I am on a 75 shot, and I swear my speedo was jumping in 15 mph increments. Awesome.
Anyone here ever been in a nitrous powered car?

When you get to a higher shot does ir really kick you back and you know your hauling ass? Mine is so smooth on the 75.

Honestly on the 125rwhp shot I am running, from the drivers seat you can semi feel it but the biggest difference is how fast the tach climbs... from the pass seat.... wow.

i was a nitrous junkie for 15 years (probably longer then some of you have been driving,ugh) and its a BLAST.
I had a 175 on my 97 TA,and kick in the ass barely describes it. hell i purged a 75 shot worth of nitrous before every run.

Thats how I feel with mine. Just wondering if it was normal. I don't have anyone that can drive my car though for me to ride in the passenger seat.

*cough* ;)
Dunno if it'd feel right though. I personally don't like driving/beating on anybody elses cars.

I haven't had the opportunity to do so.... I've only experienced it vicariously through the Fast & Furious series of movies....

I think if anybody, im going to ask Al to do it. He has driven my car quite a few times and I have driven his. If you thought you could do it id let you, but Id want you to get used to my gearing first being an M6.

I have a progressive controller so the hit is ramped up and not just a jolt. I'm sure if I just delayed it then dumped it all at once I'd feel that instant bang. That's not such a good idea tho ;) I ran mine several times with a 75 shot, and yes, it's hard to tell if it really sprayed or not. If you delay it for a couple of seconds you can feel it a little better. I just don't think it feels like what your expecting. It's not an instant throw you in the back seat kinda thing. It just pulls like crazy!!

You went from mid-high 12's to an 11.44 - I'd say it pulls like crazy you sneeky bastard. :)

I've always wanted to be in one especially in one from fast and furious. It seems like everytime they spray, their cars jump in 80mph increments and pop wheelies and all sorts of sh!t

Hahahahahaha. :banghead:
I think maybe it is just an excuse for me to quit putting miles on my car and start to build a 408.

I've been contemplating putting a dry 50 shot on the BMW 323i.
Just for kicks. LOL
The engine has a vaccuum leak in the PCV somewhere, and I have to pull the intake manifold to get to it.
So, I said "F*ck it" and tell people the whistling in the higher RPMs is my turbo.
