Gen 2 500+ hp na?

[K4fxd]

There was some improvement but not enough to be worth it.
The car feels a bit lighter, but still needs that little more gear.

Don't fear the gear.

I also 3.73 gears (from 3.31) Milage didn't really change. Maybe lost .3 mpg or so. 2020 intake manifold w/ IMRC delete. Maybe lost 1 mpg. Went catless.. gained it all back plus a little more. FEAR the CAT.

I’m assuming this is on 91 or 93 right because I get about 13 mpg right now on E85 lol

Yes, it is on 91.

I noticed a typo in my comment to the OP regarding nitrous. It said 250 shot, when it should have said 150 shot.

I’m not looking to start an argument, but I if you’re saying nitrous isn’t good for a stock motor, I disagree. IMO, it’s no more of a risk than a supercharger or turbo, provided you limit the shot to 150 hp.

I also recommend tuning for it on the correct fuel, running a good progressive controller and using as many safety features as possible.

Not good for the stock ring gap only a matter of time before they lock up

I agree that this can happen, but it’s not limited to nitrous cars only, it can happen to boosted cars as well. That’s why I suggested not exceeding a 150 hp shot and letting a good tuner tune the car, i.e., remove the appropriate amount of timing for the shot size and tune the car on good fuel such as E85 or race fuel which also helps keep things nice and cool in the combustion department.

I understand. It’s definitely a risk we take when seeking more power from these engines. The best thing we can do when increasing power output is to try and utilize caution and any safety features that we can and hope that we end up with a solid package.

I am curious what the circumstances were pertaining to your engine failure? Can you elaborate on it a bit more. Thanks

@JVO21303 what fuel were you running and were you on an aggressive tune? How much power were you making?
