There are so many benefits running nitrous on turbo charged cars especially for people who are into drag racing.
You might want to Consider nitrous not just because of the extra power nitrous can Generate nitrous is so Beneficial for turbo charged cars. Turbo cars are far safer on nos due to the cooling effect which prevent detonation
Nitrous its unbelieveable stuff, you could possibly drop a second on your ¼ mile times. On gas i have no lag what’s so ever. Apart from more power, how would you like FULL BOOST at any RPM? Maximum power from the second you push the pedal? Because it totally removes all turbo lag - completely! Full power/boost from idle RPMs upwards! Stand on the gas and GO!
The nitrous initially provides the go, but this makes a lot of exhaust gas that spins the turbo up fast! Sudden boost too! Because if used as a "turbo lag remover" the nitrous is turned off as soon as boost is achieved via a manifold pressure switch, so the bottle lasts AGES! that’s if you wanted the nos for this Purpose (i didn’t) PEAK power can be drastically improved - if used normally (on all the time @ full throttle) rather than just to eliminate the turbo lag. charge cooling effect gives a measure of safety and prevents detonation, meaning higher turbo boost pressures can be used. and it also means a much bigger turbo can be used! with large turbos so much time is lost through lag after a gear change the turbo might take a second to spin up, this wont happen with nos. personally I think trying to run 2.4 bar and nitrous will cause him problems especially on a 8v head the engine will produce so much exhaust gases will be head be able to get rid of the cylinder gases before the next charge comes in maybe Stuart should do the testing before adding anything to his sig? would be good if he can achieve this because the car does look the part. just needs the times to back up his claims
