Write something on here as I've been up all night in pain with the usual, knees, back, hips, neck and hands that feel like they have been given a constant going over wit a set of plumbers fecking pliers!
Like a lot of people (I'm presuming?) Nitrous was something I reckoned was very hit or miss to increase power, not 100% reliable and likely to damage if not blow your engine up etc
.
After spending a long time reading over WON's website and especially this forum I'm a convert to say the least.
As soon as I got my driving licence (bike and car) the first thing I would do was tune them, and I've had a fair few, all modded. Scooby, Gixxer thou ltd edition, blades, 636 race bike, wide body GT4, RS 2.1 Burton and a 650bhp race prepped EVO to name a few. All tuned and modded and all costing a small fortune to get there and maintain.
I'm currently on my third rev 2 MR2, a UK N/A model in outstanding condition, and from the day I got it I was already planning what engine swap I would go for.
Plenty options to choose from, full tubby rear clip but had to be a rev 3 costing £3500 and capable of running 300bhp.
Toyota Camry 3.0 V6 giving around the same as a rev 3 tubby costing the same.
Toyota 3.5 V6 making around 300bhp for the same cost.
As above but with a supercharger near 400bhp but costing £5000 or more!
The tubby conversion I wouldn't bother with now as the newest of these engines (3S-GTE) are now 16 years old, and every Turbo car I have had has always had a niggle on and off regardless.
The 3.5 V6 I would love but I can't justify 5K plus.
So Nitrous it is now that I have a better understanding of the WON and their products and knowledge. Rather than jump straight in and get everything i want and plan to get/fit at once I'm going to slowly build my Nitrous system up over about one year.
I'm going to start with the SB150i Nitrous Kit and then next stop will be to fit a controller, bottle heater, REVO Max Extreme Nitrous Controller and then the Max Extreme Bottle Contents Feature Unit.
A purge kit each side of the car exiting where the air intakes are either side and in front of the rear wheels would be cool although maybe over the top, opinions please?
As yet I am undecided as to how much bhp to add but my engine is in tip top shape and should be able to handle 275bhp without a problem. The best bit about tuning one of my cars using Nitrous for the first time is piece of mind, even if the worst happened and the cuurent engine went pop, I can easily source a replacement unit for a £100 quid and transfer the Nitrous system over, result!
Anyhoo, just felt like posting something up and giving my angle on why I am now a WON convert.
