okay me and my friends are yelling at each other which is true? what is nitrous?? N/A or Forced induction. i would think it is N/A kind of application you guys get what im asking here??? throw me some opinions, i hope this isnt a repost

N/A = Naturally Aspirated
Therefore, nitrous = forced induction

 

force imo

 

Its forced induction

some people get the impression that it is some kinda "fuel additive" or something..

but in reality all it is doing is forcing more air into your cylinders.

Definately FI. The allmotor class at the drag events are strictly NOS & Boost free.

 

where's the worthless option?

i'd say n/a, its not forcing in any more air than you already are. say you put a boost guage for a turbo in, without a turbo or sc and use nitrous. itll read normal pressure.

 

n/a...it can't be forced induction...no blow off valve is needed for a larger shot of nitrous like it is when you get a larger turbo (or any turbo for that matter). therefore...no extra compressed air is wanting out. lsvtec03 is right...the boost gauge would read at 0.

 

what does a boost gauge, bov, or any other turbo system component have to do with forced induction or not?

na = naturally aspirated = vacuum = sucking air normally

fi = forced induction = induced air forced in. it may not create positive pressure at the manifold but youre still forcing in more air. with that logic i guess a ram air would be forced induction too hah. regardless, its usually accepted as fi.

 

If the whole worlds atmosphere was made up of n20, then it would be n/a.

 

i would say neither, it in a class of its own.

 

It's forced induction. Your forcing something to be inducted by the engine (N20), so it's forced induction. N/A is all motor.

actually, i could go with that. but still, theres no 'forcing' of anything. no positive pressure means no force. its just squirted in the same way gas is. i dont say my car is fi because i use gasoline.

Wrong answer. You are shooting n2o into your intake/injectore/whatever at about 900-1200psi. Now, you are forcing the car to take in more oxygen then it ever could as an N/A set-up. Positive intake pressure is not what makes F/I. It is one of many components of it, but not the only one. NHRA considers it s F/I application.

what he said

 

ok, ya got me. im an adult, i can admit it....i just got bitchslapped...good job. btw, 75% of the air is made up of nitrogen, followed by oxygen

 

forced i....you are forcing a gas that allows more air and fuel to atomize and burn

 

it's Fast and the Furious yO!
