Default nitrous and a supercharger?

Hey, I was just thinking about putting a venom vcn 1000 kit on my stock d16 and only running about a 50 or 70 shot and was wondering if i would be able to boost on it also? either with a turbo kit or a supercharger? (6psi) I know i'm gonna have to rebuild it but just wondering if there is anyway it could be done with stock internals? thanks

Yes it needs to be rebuilt. FI of any kind is somewhat stressfull on your block, just the idea of it-cramming more air than is meant to into the cylinder. Then your adding N2O, that will greatly increace the pressure inside the cylinder (IE-huge HP increace) and would definitly kill your engine quickly. But of course you CAN do it, reliability is the issue here.

I strongly suggest you don't !!

My friend put two bottles though his 250K mile HF motor, while he had a JRSC @ 6 psi on it... It never died, but we think I was b/c the valve seals and piston rings were so "shot" that all the extra air/presure was just being "blown though"..

No less.. 55shot zex, 6psi JRSC, and 2 months, and the motor never died... He swapped a D16A6 in and killed it in about 3 months with just the JRSC.

nitrous also wears away at the blades of the supercharger.

I'd like to hear a reasonally theory on NOS eating S/Cs, hehe.. Yea, ummm, The oxygen ( basiclyy what nirtous is, just twice as much per cubic inch ) crews the blades up like jelly beans !!

ignorance is bliss.

Nitrous is N2O... Nitrous and oxygen themselves are diatomic molecules that means they are relativly unstable and need to be paired up with something else or themselves to be stable. Hence the 2 atoms of nitrogen and 1 of oxygen.

The oxygen isn't what eats away at the SC blades, and i retract my previous statement, its the coating on the blades. The nitrogen is what does it - Also its incredibly low state of energy (temperature) is what contributes to it.
