nitrous in a v6 stang

phat stang · 08-20-2003, 02:03 PM

Here's the deal: I have got a 96 v6 with a diablo sport chip, and a cold air intake, a bunch of other cool stuff but that's about all the engine mods for right now. I was reading this article in 5.0 Mustangs about a v6 stang that hot wheels and APC teemed up to pimp out. Basically the engine is bone stock except for a wet nitrous kit and a vortech s-trim supercharger. The intake, heads, pistons, camshaft, rods, cranks, all stock. They put a booster on the fuel pump, I guess to boost it up to handle the nitrous. So my question is: Would my stock v6 motor be able to handlea bottle, and if so how big of a shot?

Any gasoline motor can handel the bottle.

I'd say 75. BUT AS FREAKIN ALWAYS, CHECK WITH THE MANUFACTURER TO GET A SOLID ANSWER ON THE MAX SHOT.

Keep an eye on OSU's Formula SAE program if I get on the powertrain design team.
