how does the KA react to nitrous?

[midnightclubbaa]

i'm looking to slap a nitrous system on the old KA for a little speed until i can afford a swap. could i do a 50-75 shot and still be able to drive my car everyday and not have problems.

If you do it right, no problems.

Don't forget to retard timing and use colder spark plugs.

and have replacement spark plugs in case something happens.(after some shots, the spark plugs will probably get eaten by the nitrous and cause all sorts of stuff associated to that)

so a 75 shot is safe for a daily beater

if you don't use it every day, I have been running a 65 shot for about 2 months. Just start with a 55 shot and if the car is ok with it then move up to a 65 shot and so on. Aslo make sure you get a wet kit.

why a wet kit?

why a wet kit?

Just so you are aware, your engine will wear out much quicker than before...

Although I am pretty sure that is common knowledge, you should always have the internals checked before upgrading to such a radical change in power. If anything is out of spec down low or worn from high mileage, you could set your self up for disaster.

You must also be aware that there are rules about when you can apply the gas and when you should never, ever use it.
