Sexy! When are you thinking about doing it? They are both great systems. Can be a PITA to install but its worth it!

edit: Im only running 5lbs because of the altitude difference. I might pulley down here soon too....

Couldn't you supplement Meth cooling for higher boost pressures? That doesn't go without saying you'd have to reinforce the entire rotating assy. and everything else. Went on a Wiki binge and the integral supercharger on Packard-Merlin V1650s have been pushed to over 56lbs of boost at altitude.

If only our V8s could sound as good as a motor with 4 more cylinders..

nitrous. that is all

SinisterEcho · 01-23-2013, 11:22 AM

I am limited by my pulley size at this point. I need a smaller pulley for more boost. Even with a meth injection i still would not be getting any more boost. \

Yes Jason.... one day when im rich and im done building my LSX 427.

PoorMansCamaro · 01-23-2013, 11:24 AM

Fast and the furious reference haha

PoorMansCamaro · 01-23-2013, 11:31 AM

i knew vinny would get the reference. lol

butt yeah, if you are trigger happy, it could get expensive to refill. i only use it at the track and to showoff the purge. lol had nitrous for a year and only refilled it 5 times. most was for tuning runs.

How much did it cost to fill? Someone said it's like 75 a pop.

Which I am trigger happy.. So

PoorMansCamaro · 01-23-2013, 11:38 AM

i guess it depends on where you live. Vegas area charged $5 a pound. so usually less than $50 for a 10lb bottle because you usually always have a pound or so when you are ready to refill. i asked a guy in Florida, and they said about $25 to refill. so you would have to ask your speed shop that carries nitrous .

Forged parts and 9:1 compression. I should break 650 wheel at 9psi so who knows what I can do with 12
