Any nitrous apps yet? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

imo, nitrous isn't too popular amongst smaller displacement 4 cyl engines, but guys tuning vq35 engines, for example, love using nitrous because it truly is cheaper for them being that they have about 300 whp stock.

on this car, i'd definitely stick with turbo or supercharger as the best bang for the buck mod (so far).

I think it's funny how the perception of nitrous changes by community. It's the same stuff.

I will go Kraftwerks in March 6, but I was think8ing about the Nitrous Express kit really because 50whp extra for emergencies is always good!! but now I dont think I will becuase people dont use nitrous with the FRS I dont even now if SC and Nos is posible and safe.

Install it, tune it, use it.

FI and nitrous is very possible. I would think a sc would be a good match because of there consistancy. The biggest thing is just that with FI a "35" shot is going to be compounded and yield more. Check out The Wizard of NoS they have a setup for 4 cyl, single throttle body, force inducted cars. Of course that's a semi universal kit so it's going to take some customization to fit our cars.

I would be really weary on doing FI with nitrous on a stock block. Compounding the PSI would make me worried I'd pop a rod or something.

Its all a game of cylinder pressures, sure the FBM car with the really high HP was only for a short time on the dyno but it has to given some confidence on the FA20. And I think a built motor should be on the mind of anyone playing with larger mods like this.
