There is only 3 cars i know of currently engineered for drag racing, COPO Camaro, Cobra jet Mustang and Drag Pak Challenger. That means all import drag racers are missing the point i guess right? |

I guarantee the first reaction that Tada and Toyoda are going to have if they ever hear of someone putting nitrous on this car, is this: -Acree |

Nitrous is the complete opposite. It's only usable at WOT and for a few seconds at a time. It's one of the most idiotic things you could do to a car that was created to enjoy in the twisties. I guarantee you no one is going to use nitrous injection on a track with a turn. If you want to go all redneck and spray nitrous into a FR-S to make it run 14.0 instead of 15.0 quarter mile, be my guest. It's the equivalent of dropping a truck on airbags and trying to compete in autocross. Hilarious. -Acree |

Nitrous isn't my cup of tea, but it is a great bang for the buck power adder. When done correctly (not an overly aggressive shot) it isn't unreasonably hard on the engine. It cools the air charge which is a real benefit. You can also stage it so it isn't as abrupt. Losing somebody in the turns and then keeping them from reeling you in on the straights doesn't sound pointless to me.
