Thats cool. Wouldnet all that stuff on ur truck be a little heavy? Besides the fact that alot of rc's just dont have enough spare room on the chassis to install all that nos stuff.

NEWFIENITRO hi so you make up a sweet little mount for it made of what ever cabon fiber looks sweet so does polish aluminum some thing else to play with its a hobby not a job

RE: NITROUS EXPRESS SYSTEM
 
yes the numbers look real but for the price you can STILL just buy a new better engine. that has more power all of the time and is more reliable and doesnt cost extra every nos refill.

dan what if you all ready have the best motor

NewfieNitro 03-02-2007 10:16 PM

RE: NITROUS EXPRESS SYSTEM
 
Well if u already have the best motor then u just make a little mount and throw some nos on there :p

You run more nitro. And plus, the 'best motor' is going to rip your car to shreds anyway. nitrous isnt needed.

if you think you need more power than you can already get out of a 12, in fact if you think your car can survive with more power than a 12 you have no idea.

dan that is what some people want you have no clue do you its about fun a hobby cheaper then real cars dee dee dee

For the performance it is FAR cheaper to port your own engine and get the same gains am i wrong?

I dont think it's worth the money. I still done get how the extra fuel is getting to the engine to stop the lean condition that would occure when the nitrous is injected. They said nothing about that which seems a little odd to me. IDK maybe I missed it, but from what I have seen they didnt say anything about it, and if you have to adjust the needles manually then yoru engine will be as rich as Bill Gates and wont have anymore power until you reach 100% throttle. And only 8 seconds of power seem's way to short for the money that is spent. A better engine would be better, and I can almost guarantee you that you dont have the best engine out there. So you can always step up to a better engine and maybe do a little porting and stuff, but to each his own and if you want it go ahead and get it. But 8 seconds, nah thats just not for me.

this is the thing, you tune your engine for its normal fulltime performance, like as in you dont risk overleaning and killing it when your just driving around... but then you have that bottle of nitro somewhere in your car, and with an extra channel on your radio(for instance if your not using reverse) you can give a shot of nitro that boosts the engine's performance, since its only running like that for a few seconds , wear shouldnt be a problem, i dont know if an engine can even have time to heat up to the temperatures that you get when you set the needles too lean... think of it as something like on the fly fuel leaning

Hey guys come on [&o] you got to buy this thing [sm=lol.gif] How us Hobby Shop people going to make money :( if you don't ? Just remember the buck doesn't stop there :D

No way for 200 buy a novarossi. end of conversation.

From what I read about it, there's supposed to be a toggle switch near the throttle switch. When the servo hit's 100% throttle it then pushes the toggle switch over from the off to the on mod where it then gives appox 8 seconds worth of nitrous. 8 seconds is enough to do damage, as it will run lean which means not enough luberication. It doesnt matter weather it gains a whole lot of temp or not for the 8 seconds, there's a lack of luberication there which means some wear and tear will happen.

And when you really start to think about it, here's how it really works. The servo hit's 100% and flips the toggle switch. The nitrous goes off adding it's own oxygen but no extra fuel is added. Well when no fuel is added I dont see how it would add ANY extra power if the engine is already tuned for maximum performance, then it's already using all the fuel. So when you think about it there should be no extra power at all until you retune your engine as the nitrous is not flamable it just add's it's own oxygen when being injected. You need fuel to add the extra power, but no extra fuel is added so no extra power if you really think about it.

So you need the extra fuel to add power and with no extra fuel no extra power, just an overly lean condition. So do you want really crappy performance up until you hit 100% throttle and have awesome performance for those 8 seconds and then once again go back to an overly rich condition. Or would you rather have that performance all the time with just a new engine or a new pipe or something of the like. I know what I would pick for $200 and it wouldnt be the 8 second version of power.

VERy very good point, but maybe the forced induction draws more air from the whatever effect that draws perfume up old school purfume bottles?

RE: NITROUS EXPRESS SYSTEM
 
125 traxxas have 3channel use the 3rd for the nitrous dee dee dee and does any one use 8sec. of nitrous lol
125cc for get about the price price always is super high on new things and yes imo it is way over priced and who says you cant run this with a full ported and polished motor just for kicks
and if this nitrous expresssystem cost 25.00 you and me would buy it in a heart beat

For bashing, top speed runs, and wheelies down the street, it could be cool.
Not to mention the 'bling factor', and bragging rights.
As far as it shaving seconds off your lap times, I don't see it happening.
Obviously sanction rules don't allow it(do they?), but even from a performance standpoint...The last thing most 2wd stadium trucks need at WOT, is more wheelspin.
Might serve more function on a MT, or truggy.

RE: NITROUS EXPRESS SYSTEM
 
hey is this thing real. I think is cool but alot 200$. But have small question will this work on jato 3.3

Also how it work press button or what.

That would be cool.

some people say it does not work well here is the proof it works it not perfect and needs more time to work out the bugs but last time i seen dynos dont lie

Complete waste of time and money IMO. No matter what the platform (ST, MT, buggy etc) you can purchase a mill that will completely overpower your vehicle. Whether it works or not, whether or not it lessens an engines lifetime, the fact remains that you can put in an engine that will make your vehicle uncontrollable. So why bother unless you just want to say you have one (nothing wrong with that)?

dude7422 03-04-2007 03:09 PM

RE: NITROUS EXPRESS SYSTEM
 
the draw back i see is the price,lol spray valve battery op. the 9 volt battery what it needs imo is a trigger from a paint ball gun and mount that to a 3rd servo ((small ball valve))
