so lets say i got about 1500 bucks cash and wanna buy a cheap car and throw a big shot of nitrous on it to play with. what would be the best car to start off with for something like that?

 

Geo metro or a ford pinto

 

lol seriously? a 3 cyl geo?

 

He is being sarcastic

Big shot on stock engine=Engine failure regardless of what car it is

I'd get a lawn mower and hook up a 250 shot see what happens

 

lol i was hoping he was. and i mean 100 shot on a 4 cyl 125 on a 6 cyl
i know there are engines that can take it with no problem.
im just trying to get some more ideas from you guys. maybe someone knows something i dont. thats why im asking of course

 

A car that takes well to Nitrous is going to cost more than $1500. Why do you feel the need to throw away money?

 

i just want something i can beat on and if it does blow than i can just leave it there lol. i know there are some hondas that can take that kind of hit ok. at least for a while anyways. im not a fan of hondas but they are cheap cars that can take a hit like that and i wouldnt care about blowing up.

 

What happened to the STi?

 

Idk man, 100 shot on a stock 4 cylinder is almost unheard of, at least for more than one run. There are engines built to do it, but I'm sure the cars they are in will be well over $1500. And since almost no one builds for nitrous, those engines are hard to come by.

I started the setup in my 1.6 Lanos with a 35 wet shot. Pretty cool, but not quite right. After upping it to 50, it was feeling a lot better and was still quite safe. I could push it to 75, but that would cause issues, as I've already seen one Lanos motor go at 75 dry shot.

 

Most 4 cylinders should take a 75 wet shot no problems.
