why is nitrous better ?
(re-posted from hp.com)
well folks, it goes to show how well nitrous works on these beta motors... just last night, i went for a cruise with my g/f around town, it was only a matter of time before i caught up with a bunch of loud pipes...
sure enough, we go out to the boondocks and get it on... there was also an older model turbo rx-7 on a huge 4 lane road out in nowhere land.... we all gun it, and i easily smoke the rx-7,, the civic hangs in there till about mid 3'rd gear, then i just slowly pull and pull, i let off about 85 mph .. no point in wasting more nitrous if i aleady had him beat smile.gif
he pulls over, opens the hood, low and behold, b18c vtech twin cam gs-r engine, dc sports 4-1 header, greddy cat-back, upgraded fpr, intake... the works..
my g/f had a blast !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

why is your car exploding ? ?? what do you mean after several explosions ??? be more specific..
are you saying that when you were using a wet nitrous system you had explosions ???
when exactly did the explosions happen ??
i've NEVER heard of this happening to anyone unless they did something REALLY stupid, like advance the timing too much while spraing wet into the manifold.. but even that was mostly detonation-related... not an "explosion" ...
also, i have no such problems on my beta, i've already gone through a dozen or so bottles with my wet kit design..
???? clear this thing up for me please.
