turbo/nitrous ?
(did a search an came up with only one post which didnt really answer my questions)
from reading what i could find, i understand the logic why most people don't see the need to run n2o and a turbo. however my case is that my (n/a) b16 already has a wet kit, and i;m thinking about putting a small turbo kit on in the near future. this is a street d/d, im not looking to get insane hp/boost #'s.
(my forced induction knowledge is limited and i couldnt find my answers searching. )
is it not a good idea to run n2o and turbo? i dont see any reason to take the n2o kit out of my car. can i just remount the fogger on the charge pipe like how i have it currently on my intake pipe?
i run a 75 wet shot on an internally stock b16. the turbo kit would prolly be a greddy kit and i dont plan to run more than 8 or 9 lbs.
i'd appreciate any info/opinions/past experiences that would be relevant. thanks.

Re: turbo/nitrous ? (i.)
int he past, both were used because the odd size turbos of the past. (too big, and needing something to spool them)
but since the "hybrid t3t4" turbos, and means of putting timing where it is needed, we can get the turbo spooled up better and faster.
you can run both if you are very careful.

i see. correct me if i'm wrong, but im under the impression that there were different turbos that came with the greddy kit, depending on what gen kit it was.
i think that only the 3rd gen had a t3/t4 turbo? and the earlier ones had a 18g?
would it be a good precaution to drop the size of the shot to say 50?

Man U FTW
I have never heard of a Greddy kit coming with anything T3 or T3/T04...
Why are you limiting yourself to that setup anyway? For the price, there are a lot better turbo setups on the market

so all the greddy kits come with 18g turbos?
i'm thinking about this kit cause if i do get it, it will be super cheap.

cause this kit is super good deals. prolly about half as much as if i pieced one together. i understand what you guys are saying though.
another ?, will the 2 step colder plugs i run (for the nitrous) have an adverse effect on a turbo kit?
