  1. untrue earl

    i'm not going to give you a step by step because im sure that you are more than capable of doing a google serch but I will give you some tips and if you need it and i can hopefully anwser some specific questions if you have any. and its not "shots" it's shot. a 100shot is a rough calculation of the amout of HP increase the nitrous is giving you when flowing. if you want to add more than around 50% of the motors power with nitrous the best way to go is with a "progressive controler"or at minumum multipule stages it will pulse the nitrous and fuel solenoids much like a fuel injector and gently add hp untill you solinoids can't flow any greater volume because of internal oriface restrictions at that point you will want to add larger solenoids or multipule solenoids. the reason you need to meter nitrous is because of the instantanious reaction it has in a gasoline engine the impact on the pistons, rods,crank, ect. must be regulated to insure that the inital hit of the nitrous wont cause catastrophic failure of any one engine component, you must soften the inital impact or VERY BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN. that said nitrous is one of if not the most cost efective and safe power adders when controled. the only real issue with useing nitrous on older motors is that if the compression rings arnt in good shape the nitrous will find its way into the top pistion grove and slowly from the small amouts that colect in the grove exploding with the rest of the air fuel mixture strech the ring grove and eventualy peel it off the top of the piston.

    I'm confedent that any of the m5x famliy of engines are well suited to the use of nitrous in stock form. given the crank support very strong rods and relitivly tight tolerances i'm sure that given the proper controlers they can withstand in excess of 200% power increases.

     

    the biggest tip i can give you is always run redundant fuel solenoids its really bad when one fails and your motor goes pop!

  2. honestly i think you guys are way out of line. ok so he isnt smoothe have you ever driven an e34 even in tip top order they are kind of janky when you push them around like that and he kept things very tidy considering what he was doing and the space he had. and get real we have all done stupid shit in cars where or when we shouldnt have thats part of being a car guy and as far as i know you dont develop bad karma from spinning tires. now get the sand out of your vaginas and lets move on

  3. ohh and Caterpillar motors are in chevys...

    also chevy axles are the strongest light truck axles dana60 and corp14 ff ford also uses dana 60's but its a counter rotation highpinion witch is very slightly weaker then the chev variant and ford uses a stearling 10.25 in the rear that has a 1/4" smaller ring gear but a slightly larger pinion bearing so strengh would be about the same but the chevys win because they have higher spline counts on the axles and pinion yoke
