WTF means WHAT THE FUCK?!?!??!?! lol, just kidding. Well as far as I know, a naturally aspirated vehicle is a car that doesnt use a turbo system or any type of turbine to pack or jam compressd air in the cylinders because we all know that is what will make the car faster. For someone to have a fast car that doesnt have turbo usually has a big engine like a V8 with 5.0 Liters so it is natually fast without using turbos and/or compressors to make it faster. That's all I know... correct me if im wrong but I dont know much

You are a Skyline driver, you HAVE to know. And yes NA means the engine is sucking its own air w/o help from a turbo, blower, supercharger, etc. Nitrous is another means of FORCING air into the motor that wouldn't "NATURALLY" be there also.

N/A = breathing on its own with no power adder.
Forced induction would be a super charger or turbo.
Nitrous is a power adder but not forced induction.

Thanks...

Makes a lot of sense. Nitrous being a power adder, it doesn't suck up air, it shoots NOS into combustion chamber.
