hahahahahhahhahhhahhhah...........THUMP..........h ahahahhahahhahah!!!!!

Sounds like F&F mods.

"Dude, you gotta run 20w50 race oil or your manifold will explode!"

5w30 dino or synthetic is perfect.

actually you just want to run no oil, since NOS is a cureall and the best way to may your car go fast, NOS will make you motor so fast that oil will do nothing but slow you down.... oh and while your at it make sure you get titanium manifold bolts so those bitches dont blow off...

More important than your oil choice is definately a stand-alone ECU with an interface for a laptop computer.

This will help you keep tabs on your most important issues like manifold pressure.

It can neven tell you when it's safe to squeeze y0!

Just remember when using nitrous, timing is the key. You'd hate to be racing some guy in an S2000 and hit the NOS y0! too early and have him say:

"Too soon Junior!"

As he passes you by.

I hear Harry at Racers Edge has good prices on some NOS.

He hooked my friend Hector up with some pretty nice engines.

I don't think you're being messed with for wanting to run nitrous as much as you're getting messed with for asking a silly question like that one right there.

That's like the exact line from The Fast and Furious, so you opened yourself up to that one.

I'd say you run a bigger risk of breaking the ring landings on the pistons if you run too lean with nitrous.

After i get the Hatch......then let see whos gonna talk trash theN.......
Oh ****! You're getting a hatch? I'd better shut up talking trash then!

Oh wait, I've got one too:



I'd like to suggest that you try to not have any sort of "take on the world" attitude here, because there are so many other cars here that will ruin your day if you think that you are fast.

There are so many other cars here that will beat the **** out of my car and my car doesn't do too bad.

If I were a mod I wouldn't ban him just yet.



He's new and is probably not well-versed on the ways of Honda-Tech.

Besides, he's so funny!

Yea Hector's Turbo'd Spoon engines are crazy but no match for my 2 150 shots.
After I hit 8th gear Vtec I pulled away from him

sorry had to do it. hehe

Speaking of which, this green Eclipse almost passed me when he shifted into 7th gear!

I thought VTEC was undefeatable! Remeber this kids:



If that guy in the green Eclipse only had NOS, then he'd have a higher top speed! If he got 2 big bottles his top speed would be like 190-200mph!

BTW: That's funny. Like NOS adds an extra few gears or something or changes the Fd ratio to increase top speed capabilities or something?

I thought that when they used nos to increase the top speed, they based the idea off ofhaving more power to overcome the "aero-wall" so to speak, when a car doesn't have enough power to overcome the aero-dynamic drag, but would only be turning at, say, 5k in 5th gear.

I might be worng, but is that possible??

That would be true, but in the F&F movie the Eclipse guy redlined in what would be 7th gear or so, but still complained about "not having enough top speed" or some ****.

Actually, when running NAWS, it'd be better to put in an SR20 engine from a nissian. I hear they adapt well to NAWS.
