I am just wondering how much nitrous these cars can handle. I will be picking up the usual mods( pulley, intake, exhaust), and was hoping to put a 70 shot on top of it for those special occasions. It wouldnt be used alot. so how much can i do without extreme fear of blowing out my bottom end? thanks guys
Our kits starts off with a 60 up nozzle and goes up to approx a 100hp size . We have run the 100 hp with no issues but we recommend going to 400 cc injectors. This is with responsible use and our Venom / M7 controller your results may vary
what should i be dynoing at roughly with the 60 shot and the supporting mods(pulley, etc..) . also, what times are people turning on the 1/4 with that setup? just curious
slow-s you must be coming from a detroit muscle car because I think I miss the straight away grunt also...and yes for all the haters that jump on and say the Cooper wasn't designed for the straights I know this I just miss straight away blasts every now and again.
u are correct!!haha. I currently own a 2000 z28 with a nitrous driven 438whp LS1, and my car before was a 1986 buick grand national with a stage 3 kenne bell turbo and fmic. I am looking for something that is actually fun to drive in the twisties instead of a hazard though. I just want a little spray for when I get the itch to go fast in a straight line from time to time. Trust me, I dont think that the main function of these cars is the1320 though

Can we see pictures of said vehicles? I also come from a Detroit driven household and still hold a place in my heart for the gutteral roar of a big block at 6K.

sure, no prob. let me try to dig up the pics of my GN, and tomorrow i will take some pics of the camaro
I used to think Nitrous was cheating...now I understand the uses of it much more and am for it in many of its applications This will be the last stage I add...
now im torn though! i was looking at an 04 audi A4 1.8t quattro. with the gt28rs they have alot of power and the handling is quite good. I dont know which car to go with now!!

I love the older B5 A4 1.8T quattro's; they look good (when properly equipped), are relatively cheap to buy, easy to mod, light weight, and can make some serious power with a larger turbo.
If it was your choice, I would look for a used MCS that's already been heavily modded and go from there. Much more fun than any A4 :-)

Don't...you'll have SO much more fun with the MINI. I'm a huge Audi fan...and I had a B6 A4. Loved it, but the mini is sooo much better. My brother-in-law used to own a B5 A4 1.8t with a GT-28rs kit on it. It really was not that fast, and I found it to be pretty laggy. It was cool for sure, but your MCS will be way faster, spending much less money. Just my 2cents!
wow!!! that is really impressive. what other mods? slicks, quaife, suspension? when u say stock, do u just mean stock internals with all of the basic boltons?
It was on MT 24.5 x 8 - 15 slicks with a quaife and a Helix 4 paddle clutch on 205-50 -15 BFG drag radials it went 12.6s with a nitrous controller and 12.88 without.
When I say stock I mean stock everything.
Its gone 12.06 @ 119 on drag radials now and 11.77 at 115 on slicks with a smaller jet
