Nitrous On supercharged coupe

Just wondering if any of the guys (or ladys) that are supercharged are running a 50 or 100 shot nitrous in their cars? Also wondering how the motor internals will hold up

Beats the purpose if you ask me.

If you're getting a SC or a TT, set your power goals from the beginning and get the right kit and supporting mods. Why get a STG1 + 50 shot when you could get a STGII for example?

Why not invest in a smaller pulley instead/bigger compressor?

Because neither of those gives you a red button on your steering wheel.

Haha. I'm absolutely a nitrus noob, but I was under the impression most tracks didn't allow it due to insurance / fire issues.

I would look into a water-meth system before nitrous.

Have you gone to the track with your current setup? What are you doing for traction? Maybe smaller lightweight wheels + drag radial setup if you're wanting to shave time.

You just need to wear a special fire retardant suit.

Skip the spray, hvr loves the juice but.

Unless you want to blow a nice size hole in the block, nitrous delivery is very unstable on these motors. Tried spray, not good.

Go sc or tt, with mild boost, will make plenty of consistent power.
