Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Nitrous thing

Ok, how does the nitrous thing work and where do you install them?

Ive seen them in movies and such where they press a button and it goes off. Im not sure how it all really works.

You don't really sound like you know too much at all about Nitrous Oxide...not to diss you cause you gotta learn sometime, but just promise me you will educated yourself thoroughly before installing such a system on your car.

I'm not going to try and explain the details, but check out as many sites and companies as you can on the web...

Nitrous Thing

yea if you dont kno what ur doin,,, you could couse some serious damage to you or ur engine

ya, thats why I plan on researching first before I do anything.

fast and furious is a bad place to learn. first thing to remember in your research is that if it's contained in that movie or the 2nd one its not real. also dont expect your car to go super fast right away.

most people using nitrous for the first time are eith er just as slow or slower then they were without it. your launching will suffer until you re-learn how to do it correctly.

just make sure to only use NO2 at wide throttel and above 3000 rpm. if not ull blow ur engine. you can get a progerresive controller switch that will automaticly engage the NO2 at wide throttel

zex is the best when dealing with that^^

VENOM systems are the best! My dads got one in his EVO. Sick shit!

^^^ur pop got NO2 in his EVO?? that's sick..he race too are what???..if so, like father like son eh??

good to know

There are some specific things you need to know about running nitrous on our car. First, you cannot use a dry kit, you have to use a wet kit instead. Secondly, if you're going to be running 50 shot or up, you're going to have to change out your spark plugs to something cooler. Third, do not run more than a 75 shot. You can get accessories and what not, like a purge to clear the nitrous lines so it's consistant or a bottle heater to keep the bottle pressure regular (pressure is key).
