Question Nitrous question

Ok Before anyone gets all worked up and burns away, Im only asking because I happen to have a dry nitrous kit sitting in my garage from a old car I had. Has anyone used nitrous on a 951 or a dry nitrous kit? I was thinking it would be a good way to cool the intake charge plus add a little kick, But I'm afraid it's overkill and I might lean out. It's only got Jets for 55hp. Just ideas I'm tossing around, before I try and sell the kit on Craigslist lol.

I would install a 55 shot on a 951 and never worry about it. Should cool the charge and help spool the snail ( maybe not since you are running a small turbo and you dont want to spray before ~3000 rpm. Just make sure you can tune for it.

It would depend on whether you have it set up a little rich or on the lean edge.

For that small of shot just upping the fp a little would be enough.

Probably won't make much difference. I ran it on my red car and didn't gain much do to the small hotside and stock exhaust.

Since we have used the anti lag, I havnt even thought about it.

IMO its not worth the hassle (this coming from a long time nitrous proponent)

Hmm, maybe I'll just sell it then, I have Jetting up to 75hp, but doesn't sound like its a great idea
