Best NOS for Turbo II

With so many new products coming out every month, which is the best NOS kit in the market for the Turbo II?
Who sells it? any Link? Price range?

Thanks

Fernando

There is only one "NOS" kit for a TurboII, and it's made by NOS. The best Nitrous Oxide kit for a TurboII is none at all.

Nitrous Express 75 Wet shot. Going higher on a stock motor is getting risky. 75 shot done correctly on a healthy motor is perfectly safe.

Yes, Sean is the No2 guru on this forum. I learned everything I know about No2 from him.

UHm...there are many different types of kits made by NOS.. Wet kits, dry kits, fogger kits, etc....

There is no specfic "kit" made for the T2. Just buy a universal system.. but you need to know what you are doing and install it properly

The best Nitrous Oxide kit for a TurboII is none at all.


And Id like you to explain your reasoning behind this..

Anyone have experience with a Co2 Spray bar for a FMIC? Does it do any good?

N2O is just fine if your keep the mixture from running lean, N2O = more air so you have to add more gas. Any wet system will do this though.

75 on a stock motor is getting risky. The stock wastegate creeps if you look at it funny. I battled it for ages with a stock S5 turbo; I will never attempt that battle again.

I would not recommend it for those who don't have the stock turbo.

I did it with N2O onto my TMIC. It worked... well . I rigged my purge valve (why waste nitrous?) with a 555 timer chip to cycle on every ten seconds whenever I was engaging nitrous, or when I was over 10 psi of boost. It would literally form ice on the intercooler fins. You could definitely feel the difference in power.

CO2 would give similar results..

drag racing is fun
solo II is fun

Once I get some money I'm sure solo I will be fun

Hell, rallying a FC would be fun


I've thought about running nitrous on the t2 for years

when you made the n20 vent onto the intercooler did you buy one of the prayers or did you make one yourself?

I made the spray bar myself.

Funny, I do pray also! I mean everytime I am forced to fab something I pray that I won't have to try a second time!

When you made the spraybar did you make it 1/2 the perimeter of the intercooler's core? And did you simply drill holes in this tubbing?

Exactly, except I just made it into a U, and then used Dremel Drill bits and a dremel drill press to drill my holes.... very tiny holes, and lots of them.

what size tubbing did you use? and how "tiny" were these holes and how fare apart? I am planning this as my next "minor" mod!

I think it was 3/16" tubing. The drills were small... maybe... 3/64th of an inch? I dunno for sure.
I can check if you want.
