    Smile experiences on a 65 shot....

    well guys i havent really posted on this new ephatch yet, but i just recently added a nos wet kit into my car.
    i have fijita cold air,
    dc rhs,
    custom 2.5 catback,
    and intake manifold thick gasket,
    the nitrous kit as i has said before is a nos kit wet system the only other thing i added to the car was a window switch so i could have an easier piece of mind when under the juice.
    why i did nitrous: cuz i only spend on everything 42 dollars for the ik22/s sparkplugs, and 12 dollars for two jets, everything else got it for free so why not?!!!.

    first gear all i do is peel out, and secong half of it too, but what i have to say is for a quick add on power is excellent, so far i raced a full bolt on mazda protege turbo boosted more than factory of course and destrtoyed him, and the only other car was a mustang with i say quite some work done to it just a v8 gt and i was only able to take a little bit on him by the end of fourth.... but is fun and the car really impresses you....

    sounds fun man. NOS is a cheap and easy way to get the power. not sure how reliable it is in the long run, but what is reliable right?

    i went to the track and saw a guy with a shirt that said: Turbos Suck, Super chargers Blow, nitrous rocks.

    i thought of one: If you can't win, spray

    im pretty sure the nos brand rates their horsepower at the crank instead of at the wheels
