Just wanted to get your guys opinions on this issue. I have a 200sx sr20det that I am selling because I have no time for anymore. I am gonna get another car that is na with a few bolt ons and later on down the road go with spray. I want na for now for its dependability and less headaches than turbo. Just wanted to know the difference in pull on a stock det vs de+n. I think the times in the 1/4 should be pretty close as well as the butt-o-meter. I just like the daily drivability of a n/a car vs turbo. Thanks for any input.... I am NOT comparing de+n to a built sr20det

wow... the nitrous ppl are rocking this joint with their threads :tongue:

IMO, if you are fine with the power delivery of your N/A car, then nitrous is fine - assuming your motor can handle it. Otherwise, it will become an expensive habit.

lol..yeah..true. I am not looking to use it all the time, just when i want to race. I just dont like the hassle of turbo. I just wanted to know what a 200sx with i/h/e with 80 shot would run compared to a det swapped stock bb car

Is boosting a DE a hassle?

its not a hassle... but your always worried about crap.. I just want out of the turbo game as long as I can hang somewhere in the low 14 high 13 second range. If not, then the turbo might be worth it.

I'm guessing a 200SX SE-R weighs in around 2500 lbs.. So, hitting high 13's with nitrous + bolt-ons should not be a problem whatsoever. With a 75 shot, you would produce roughly 225-235 BHP. I can easily see 101-104 MPH traps from this.

nice...thanks rte

there was a guy with a orange se-r at firebird last year

he had i/h/e with a wetshot of 75 with "slicks" doing 14.7

considering i/h/e on the low end to the ground like 125 whp +75 wet = about 200 hp range to get into the 14's with our b14's

unless that guy sucks at drag racing

and filling the bottle is like 35 bucks a pop

haha that sucks i went 13.8 with a 40 wet shot on slicks


i made 216hp and 245ft/ibs on my 70 shot with i/h/e

now that's impressive!!!

13.8 on a wet 40!

sr20 motors like nitrous...it spits out good torque #'s

but VE is gona be the way to go coz

i wonder what the quarter mile times are gona be for a b14ve

justin runs 15.5 in his g20 here in az
so u figure 15.2 or less for our cars in az

if you cant pull a 14 second 1/4 mile in a VE, you better be in a g20.. I ran 14.6 in a b13 with i/h/e/pulleys/6puck and interior gutted and that was with a de

what mph?!?!?!^^^

its been about 4 years... iirc 92mph

Damn did u use slicks? That's a good trap speed for a de. I ran a 14.7 with a massive boost leak and my friends b18c1 hatch ran a 15 flat the last time I went to the track

id say both!! boost and nitrous

no..i used some big ass 15inch tires...i dont remember how wide but i ran them at 18psi... LOL... not good for the tires, but good for me... lets just say i had to replace tires cause i forgot to refill them after the race and i lost one on the way home.

kao, if your losing boost, the motor will not spool correctly or hit its power band.. from what i have seen in the past and heard, at only 7 psi, you should peg high 13s in a b13

Yea I ***. I haven't gone to speedworld since I fixed the leak and got my mbc. I'm running 12 psi now

well..at 12 psi, you should hit mid 13s no problem... sorry to hear you cant go to the meet... :thumbsdown: to your boss
