How much Nos can a solara handle?

[DatSRBoi]

Welpz my cousin Sorta moved in with me for about a week or so for family dealios and He has an integra running on a 30 shot of nos. He brought with him another NOS line kit which is enough to be hooked up to my car....Its a dry kit not wet. My question is wouldnt my car be able to handle this 30 shot since a TRD super charger puts about 240 hp to the solara and this Nos kit will put about 240 Hp to the solara . Wouldnt it be safe? Im not going to even try to install it without you guys telling me if its safe or who else has done this.. Search was a pain in the Izz already. My cousins giving me the Line kit free and we going to share the tank for now. Its only 30 shot.. So let me know

Reason why Im curios is because Im a 5 speed with just catback and Injen intake. And if our other friend proven to us he ran 14.8 then I have to at least be close to it since the weather down here in Texas is getting cooler. With nos I hope to break that hehe at the track next week before my cousin leaves. So let me know guys about this.... Yeah I know I do so many crazy Idea and few ever works out. Im just finding ways and this isnt a cheap mod

I was running a 100 shot wet kit by NX. . . Honestly I wouldn't run dry shot but 30 shot is nothing and you probably won't feel much from it

I thought dry are safer then wet right? Thats what I was told allot.. But 30 shot is about 30 hp gain right? Enough to break 14s and turn some heads on a family car ... But wow..how safe was your 100 shot? I thought anything over 260 on the solara is consider dangerously blowing the motor feeling..

Please advise me bro.... Really wanting to know about Nos. I already know too much will blow the car.. But 30 shot if Im correct is under the 260 hp limit so should be safe....right? So exited ahaha..

30 shot would translate more like 15-20 more hp to the wheels.

[DatSRBoi]

I understand that... But the dealio is that is it ok? Since its only that many hp like the S/C would put on stock pulley wise.. And what would be the max safe SHot for the solara....

How safe is 50 shot? All this is for track or highway use

Since "wet" systems also utilize a solinoid to inject a dose of fuel with the NOS, there is less risk of going lean. It is this that you should be afraid of instead of weather or not the bottom end is strong enough to handle the extra forces.

Personally, I think the dry systems are about as effective as a cold air intake or a chill (dryice) box around the intake.

NOS is cool but don't over do it. . . of course over time it will put a lot of stress on your valves but with any tremendous power adder it risks a chance of shortening your engine life. . . 30 shot of NOS is nothing. . . I don't even think your going to feel the pull. . . with my 100 shot when I squeezed the front of the car lifted up like I was on stock suspension and the torque off the line is so amazing. . . I smoked a 95 M3 w/ intake and exhaust so that can tell you how much of a monster it made the car into

Datsarboi,
Your car is safe up to a 250 shot of NOS. Please forge the way. Jon.

Hmm are you sure 250 shot is safe? THast like allot of power on that... So if 100 shot ran just fine...I think Im going to try 50 or 75 shot for beginners first.... Im not going to be like using it at all times.. Im just goin to the track run a few 1/4 without it..Then on the last two runs find me a fast oponent to practice on

Hey StockSolara.. What was your timing on 100 shots? Didnt you do engine work anyways? Cant remember. And whats the proper way to launch and run NOS at the track with a manuel? Everyone seems to hide how they do it around here since they dont want me to know...

I didn't time with the 100 shot but I did time with the 75 shot which is the time I got on my signature. . .That was with injen intake w/ CAE and GReddy exhaust. . . Honestly the best way to launch with NOS is for you to discover yourself. . . I can give you an idea is launch than when you catch grip or shift to 2nd squeeze all the way. . . but remember to release the button inbetween shifts

IC IC...wow 14.8 with 75 shot and injen intake with catback... I seriouslly dont know how our other member ran so well with his time of 14.8 without nos but with same mod and 5 speed.... Guess Im no where near.

[trd4life]

after running the 14.8 at 92.9 n/a, i bolted up a 70 dry shot and ran a 14.1 at 99mph, then ran a 80 dry shot and ran a 13.7 at 103mph. I had a walbro 255 pump, crushed fuel pressure regulator, and was adding fuel via an SAFC. I Was going to try a 100 shot but i ended up selling the NOS kit and buying a TRD supercharger.

Thats enough to make me grab my nuts down the lane.... Are you 5 speed and what were your whole mods when you ran your timing bro? I feel like I can beat Mustang GT stocks if I can get pass 14.2s

And where did you have your Nos Hooked up to? I was told it can be dangerous if you put it in the wrong spot and loose some power when you get get full potential from it... So is location important?

i am a 5 speed camry. At the time of the runs i had a greddy catback, cold air intake, act clutch/fidanza flywheel, fuel pump, safc, and colder plugs. Since i was running a dry kit i sprayed into the MAF, its tricks the IAT sensor in the maf and the ECU dumps more fuel. IF you were running a wet kit you DO NOT want to spray fuel into the maf. IF your only gonna run a 30 shot, the fuel upgrades are not needed, just spray into the maf and the ecu will dump the extra fuel for you. Def. get the colder plugs though, NGK part # BKR7-E11 is what you want.

Im getting it.. So will I need fuel upgrade if I got 75 shots? And Im only running it at the track so will I have to switch back to stock plugs for daily driving?
