None really, 'cause you'll be so freakin' silly from inhaling all that NO2 from your blown engine you'll be bouncin' up and down like a low rider on a Dr. Dre video!

using n2o with any turbo car is hard to tune. if you have a good tuner then go for it. but i owuld just slap a bigger turbo on that thing if you want more power. its safer, power is always there, and eaiser to tune.

as long as you don't go beserk an try to run a 100+ shot you should be ok as long as you keep the fuel up to it. Other wise you will end up with a lump of molten aluminium that used to be your engine.

Personally, I would never run Nos unless your all about drag racing. Im assuming you have a lot of money to spare if your all about drag racing in your RX7. Engine here, engine there. Oh man.. i cant afford that..

Well, I'd say if your running the stock fuel system you dont have the fuel to be running nitrous. If you have the fuel for nitrous you could just turn up the boost instead

you cant just turn up the boost lol...

if its a wet system you will get plenty of fuel with the stock fuel setup. It will dump fuel in as it is needed.

there are guys who run nitrous and dont have problems from it...granted they are running 30-70 shots...not 250 shots...haha

you should start with the basic mods...once you get all the basic mods (IC,radiator,fuel system,exhaust,dp etc..) then think about it...but you should be happy with the full mod list...thats plenty fast for on the street....

i talked to the guys at RP a few months back and they said that a wet 50 shot could be run without any problems, as long as the basic bolt ons had been done ie: intake, dp , cb
