b20a5 on nitrous

preludejim · 08-23-2009, 03:55 PM

has any of you guys ever ran a nitrous 50 shot on a b20a5 in a 3rd gen ? if so did it work well .[big change or not worth it?]

gc8dc95 · 08-26-2009, 05:46 AM

I havent ran nitrous on my 3g, but I have on other cars. It will make a big difference. 50hp is 50hp, no matter what car you have.

I'm just gettin ready to set up with a nos 50 shot (dry) on my b20a jap motor, I'll let you know how it goes,,until then,check the youtube vids for the power display,I ran a 250 wet shot on my 69 chevelle 20 years ago,it was HEAT.

*edit*wet is gas and nitrous,dry is nitrous only w/a kit that tells the injectors MORE GAS!!!!!!

i hope this engine is built. or you'll be looking for a longblock soon.

Thats not true. I ran a 75 shot on a stock block and it held up just fine. Depends on ur engines health. And if ur a retard.

well if hes asking if it made a difference... i mean duh its nitrous.

and stock blocks can handle it if they've been built or overhauled.. i would not try it with any original unmolested engine.. 200xxx miles plus nitrous ?? lol

My stock b20a5 with 200,000 miles did fine with 18psi of boost. I dont see why it couldnt hold a 75 shot. These are not weak motors.

thats like 350whp, are you serious?

gc8dc95 · 09-22-2009, 08:55 AM

Very much so. I am not claiming you would want to make it a daily driver, but it held up for a good amount of time. It did eventually pop a headgasket and then I rebuilt it.

Mebrantley · 10-14-2009, 01:29 PM

I have a B20A5 also. Where can you buy nitrous at?

holy crap how much horsepower it go up to?

russman4ws · 10-26-2009, 12:39 AM

I ran a 75 dry shot on my 88.... wasnt the smartest thing ever but i ended up twisting the #3 piston sideways in the cylinder and pushed a connectiong rod through the block.... fun times... i was 18..

NO JUICE NO JUICE imo

preludejim · 10-27-2009, 04:45 PM

i dont think that im going to go with the nitrous ,instead im with the slow big boom . its going to be about how loud the stereo is and not how fast it is .with a half wall with 4 12 inch subs the car weights to much to be fast but its gonna be loud.

thanks for all the feed back though.

You can use nitrous on a 4cyl? OMG I have been missing out......
Could I beat a Corvette with it?

SOHCinWA · 10-31-2009, 08:47 PM

Nitrous has always recommended that you run 50% of the manufacturers HP rating is on stock application... So if the advertised HP is 100hp it would be 50hp max addition for NOS to be safe from any kind of engine failure. Also , a wet system would be better for your engine because it is easier to tune.

SovietSuperSoldier · 08-04-2010, 04:14 AM

Any update on nitrous users with the B20a5?
Any track times?
Who's still spraying?
