turbo vs nos

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

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.

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

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

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
