What is your major power adder?

[PrimeTimeV6]

This thread was started for all you guys playin with forced air or spray. Put in you vehicle year, make and model. Then let the world know how you like it and if it was worth the money.


01 Honda Accord V6
75 wet Zex nitrous and Comptech Supercharger

My first major power adder was the Zex wet shot. For $600 it was the best bang for the buck. I then added the Comptech supercharger and the gains were moderate so I still used the nitrous.
I then added the CL type S high boost pulley and Snow performance methanol injection. I was then happy enough to remove the nitrous adn just run that set up.


05 Toyota Camry 4cyl
55 wet Zex nitrous

You guessed it. I couldn't leave that little turd alone so I am sprayin it. Its like night and day but nothing like the Accord.


04 Honda 400ex
20 wet Cold Fusion nitrous (had Boondocker)

What can I say. I love nitrous. LOL


Well I would have to say that if you don't plan on upgrading to the CL type S HBP on the Accord V6 supercharger kit you will be disappointed in the gains that you paid $4500 for.

The best bang for the buck would be a Zex wet nitrous kit. It is actually a beginners kit. Its easy to use, easy to install and give great gains at the flip of a switch 55,65 or 75hp. The only down fall on nitrous is the refill at $40 for 10 lbs. and when bottle pressures get low you can feel the power loss.

My number one power adder? That would be my right foot.

1990 Nissan 240SX (Sil-Eighty). SR20DET, with HKS turbo. I think it makes about 15 psi right now (never had it up to full boost yet, hopefully next week a the drag strip). But when you hit 3 Grand, the turbo hits and the thing goes like it's being shot at.

1998 Dodge Dakota Dual Exhaust =P jk. I'll put my friends on here..

1989 Nissan 240sx Coupe
RB20DET (inline 6) This motor is strong. Has a longer powerband than the SR but the only thing that sucks about this motor is that it comes with a crappy ceramic turbo. The car is putting out about 215hp and 200 tq.

1991 240sx Hatch.
SR20DET.. What Can I say about this car? Its fun. thats all there is to it. He runs the stock Garrett T28 Turbo .. But last I rode in it the car was only runnin on 80 compression in one cyl and 7 lbs of boost. He's currently swaping that motor out and getting another SR20 and hes parting his old one out.. I can't wait to ride in it on 15 lbs of boost =)

My #1 adder - NOS (Nawz for those who mock it.)
#2 - Supercharger (Yes, they make 'em for Hondas)
#3 - Last but deffinatly not least, Turbo!

Did you seriously just say NOS, its called Nitrous Oxide, not NAWZZZ

[PrimeTimeV6]

This is Drift we are talking about though.

My buddy wants to do a super-turbo on his Mini-S. That would be wicked. I don't think he's got the balls to handle that kind of power though.

[PrimeTimeV6]

What is a super turbo?

[TJ213]

twincharged mini, that would be crazy


I'm assuming something like
Alta "Twurbo" Twin-Charged Turbo System for Cooper "S" Alta Performance "Twurbo" Twin-Charged Turbo System for Cooper S [Cooper S] - $3,599.99 : Coast to Coast USA Performance, Your Source For MINI Performance!

[8695Beaters]

The Mini-S has a supercharger from the factory. Add a turbo to the exhaust manifold and you have a super-turbo (twin charged). I think there are even kits for the Mini, since it's a pretty popular idea. VW was talking about building a 1.8 liter twin-charged diesel for the Golf a few years ago. I don't know if it ever got off the ground, but the goals were about 250 hp and torque, and about 55 mpg. That would be a killer little motor.
