Hey guys, the heading for forced induction should include nitrous, which is also considered a form of forced induction.

 

Mods - I agree with GD. Our "sister" site of my350Z.com has a sub-divided category of both F/I & nitrous under their Technical forum. It just makes it easier to go directly to exactly what you're looking for.
In any event, this is still a GREAT site & yes, I donated to the upgrades!

 

Ok I'll add it but is Nitrous really a form of forced induction?

It's hard to tell from that article. I searched the web and couldn't really find a definitive answer. I guess it is more of a matter of opinion on this one.

 

Kyle - As an engineer, I agree that TECHNICALLY nitrous isn't "forced induction" as we're not mechanically shoving addition air into the engine. But since most people refer to squeeze as F/I ( & it does allow a more dense charge into the engine ), why quibble with the masses? Thanks for the addition ( especially since I'm gonna be squeezing by next week!! ).

 

Kyle,

I agree with Gene, it isn't FI, it just allows for more combustion to occur at the ~same Aambient temp.

Also,

PLEASE MOVE FI, NITROUS right after Tech/Mods. It is more logical that way.

 

The MASTER speaks!!! All hail the master GodZilla!!! We are all humbled by your greatness!

 

If anyone has any questions with Nitrous setup, feel free to pm me. I have ran nitrous for months on the G.
