Well i been thinking off adding nitrous to the car to keep the air a little more colder and denser. Any Turbo guys every use anything like this?

No not worth it, its better to just spray it inside of the intercooler, or use the nitrous to spool the turbo, or just dont get it.
i really didn't want to get to complex and spool the turbo on it since i really dont run the car that hard. I even considered running the c02 just to keep it a little cooler. I figure if i can pick this up for about 300$ its prob a good mod for few extra horses
It really wont add any HP, it will help reduce heat soak, but thats not much of a problem on a car thats run only on a drag strip. Its repeated back to back runs or short tracks that build it bad.
yeah that make sense, prob mainly why i see the on older muscle cars which hot lap them
if you really want something that will be worth wild get meth injection
try snow performance
not worth it for your car cuz you don't race it and prolly wont ever seen any hotlap sessions.
With my experience I saw these kits help my friends cars stay cool while we needed to hot lap the car several times at the strip.
It might not add any usable HP, but it helps the car use the power it already has by feeding it colder air. It also helps spool time.. not much but it does.
When he means "spool the turbo" he means that the nitrous is greatly increasing your VE and effectively spooling the turbo faster.Quote:

Ever tuned a methanol injection system? It's not entirely as simple as you believe and you may end up seeing no benefit whatsoever unless you really watch your AFR's before and after. People who just slap on a methanol injection system to an already-rich tune end up running pig rich and bogging, even with a boost-variable injection system.Quote:
