nitrous

Just got it fitted to the 348 ,too wet to test and setup at this time
too much wheel spin in 1st,2nd & 3rd,but awesome!!!

 

What was your motivation for this somewhat extreme performance upgrade?

You planning to go up the Pod, or do you just want to scare the poo out of Warren, Kevin abd Robin at a trackday!! LOL

Stig

 

both I think

 

I have 348 Spyder with 365 BHP. What power out do you have now ??
Is the nitrous system reliable and not damage the engine. How much for kit and how much to install ? Where did you have it installed ?

Please help. Very Interested...

 

fitted a twin system 2 x 11lb bottles,still testing sys upto 80bhp extra now will go up to 150bhp once setup

give them a ring say Riki sent you

 

Can you get Nitrous for 355s?

 

You are fu<king nuts ------ enjoy the ride

 

Riki

Pictures - we need Pictures!!!

Even better - I need a ride!

I remember talking to you about it with Andy when we met at K1 - Do you plan to have the car put on a Dyno?

Cheers

Paul

 

Riki,

The company that supplied you with Nitrous is only up the raod from me in Doncaster.....

When you driving along do press a button to release the nitrousand suddenly a rush of power like turbo or can you have the extra power build up over time ?

 

how much did it cost to put the nitrous on your 348?

I need to do more testing yet , yes you can put it on any car
I will put it on a Dyno when all set up
the system uses a controller to ajust power and rate
so you hit the switch to arm it ,then at 3/4 throttle it cones in

 

So how much does it cost for a 348 engine rebuild then?? :-> Are u putting money aside?

That must be crazy fast!!! Have you got a 0-60 figure yet?

 

Riki,

Doesnt this method of power increase place huge stress on bearings and con rods??

I was told that a full rebuild is sometimes required after prolonged use?? True or horse****!!

 

you only use it in small bursts,so no damage to engine unless you overrev it
the company even offer insurance on your engine

 

Have you had a chance to try it out in the dry now? How are you getting on with it and what are your experiences so far?

 

Anyone thats interested in a kit, I have one for sale.........cheap too....

Thanks,

I was told when enquiring about NOS'ing my Pantera those days that the NOS bottle is only good for a few hits and then you have to refill it. The impression i was given was it would not last for more than a few km of continous use.

This put me off. Is this right ?

I was also educated as to how NOS works. It does not explode in its self. The gas is inert. What it does is super cool the intake air allowing for a denser wad of air per intake stroke and a larger fuel component in compliment per stroke and a resulting bigger bang per stroke. Cooler exhausts were also claimed.

Skin.

 

More fuel in... and more unburnt fuel out into the exhaust on gear changes/braking.... which is awesume as anyone who has seen Andy's 348 will tell you. The flames are HUGE!

 

With nitrous you have to have the right mind set in using it. If its more power you want for continus use then dont go for gas. It is used just to get you over that point were you realy wish you had it, like when i am tearing on the road against somthing of simular power and i just want to have the edge to out drag him. When i had a twin turbo V8 i used nitrous as an aid to my intercoolers, and while on the subject of turbos you may only have your turbos on song for maybe 20% of your use of the car, the rest of the time your using just the power of the engine with out the turbos, the same could be said with gas.
I found that with the right size bottle i got about 45 seconds of use, so considering that it was only used for a matter of seconds and not the full 45 seconds becourse that would be of no use becourse in seconds you reach the desired speed at greater volosity.
So dont think that Nitrous is a substitute for real world power becourse its not, its a shot in the arm when you need it.

 

you need andy his to comment on this as he has nitrous on his car and it shocks a few on the track with how well it goes ask joe360cs and the best bit is the flames out the exhaust

 

What are the approximate costs of a full install?

Jas

 

from £2500.00 to £5000.00 for a proper install, depends what toys you want with it,progressive controls, braded hoses,bottle warmers,polished bottles,quench gates.

Andy.

 

Hi Andy,can i say how well you system works m8,well i enjoyed it cheers for the ride

 

Thanks Andy

Does anyone know of a technically competent installer (who will warranty work) in Kent?

Thanks,

Jas

 

think there is somebody in doncaster that does it there was a thread on here months ago about this do a search on nitros and it might show up
