Nitrous on a tII

Is anyone running nitrous ( not the intercooler kit ) on their turbo II?

Anything is safe if you know what you are doing.

well i have just heard that you can't run nitrous on turbos. And i got to thinking about it and i couldn't figure out why you wouldn't be able to if you had enough fuel.

You can run nitrous on turbos but alot of the time you have to have a system to adapt with the almost instant leaning condition some aftermarket ecu's have the option to trigger a second fuel mad for a shot of nitrous. But that is why it is dangerous because you already have a relatively "lean" condition you better have a really beefy system to support nitrous!

You can run as much nitrous as you have fuel for. Get a really nice wet kit with a good EGT or on board wide band and BLAM your **** will be fine. Scathcart or whatever the **** his name is, is the man for the Nitrous, run a search on him.

Basically why running nitrous with a turbo is because of how cool the intake charge gets + how much air the turbo is already pushing. Its a rule of thumb a 50 shot put on a turbo is equivalent to a 100 shot on a NA.
