Not quite. That's a lot too high. From what I gather, it's more like ~100lbs.

Why not? I don't race all the time, and I don't get on it at every red light. I only race when it's worth my time. It's stupid to beat on your motor everytime you drive it anyways. At minimum I drive conservatively 6 out of 7 days a month. I'lll race maybe one night a week and 90% of the time it will be at the track.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Haha, what... are you going to be like, "yah I COULD smoke you, but I dont want to waste my 125 shot of nitrous"
Id rather have a motor that I could have the power all the time, not just when im on the bottle.

But thats just me.

I see your point of view, but in my eyes, if you beat me, I wouldnt think of it the same as if u were all motor, or F/I. But building a motor to handle a 125 shot is pretty nuts, should hit you some nice track #'s.

Why not? Nitrous is forced induction too after all. When you look at it, it's the same concept as a turbo or supercharger, force more air into the cylinder and burn more gas=more hp.

i think because its more that nitrous runs out. A turbo wears out.

I used to be all about the B Series motors. Until the motor that was taken out of my car (d16z6, and replaced with a B16a) was put in a hatch and is still factory sealed (he has a cam and a clutch, and a 75 shot) and runs 13.3 in the 1/4 and 8.52 in the 8th. Now I don't know about you thats damn good for a d series motor.....And I've realized not to underestimate any Honda Motors......Unless its the new sacks up dump .........

I agree......I'm building my motor for a hefty shot of N2o but it has to be strong off the bottle as well.....You can't rely on the bottle to make your power.......That's when you blow **** up....
