Opportunity

c3 ? we need hp. not speakers...

In life we feel we need lots of things but in most cases there are alot more wants then needs.

HP products would be great and if I had the expertise to do such things I would but my specialty is in music. I like high torque vehicles like the next speed junkie but what we have here is a perfect platform of opportunity. So lets take this opportunity and direct our energies into making a more powerful fuel efficient vehicle. I will help it sound a lil better along the way. Thank you for the opportunity to discuss this topic.

never mind SPICYAVEO the Aveo is a better mpg saver then a race car. i'm all for better sounds and looks as long as i don't gain weight and lose what little pep i got. besides someone blew up an Aveo trying to make it a race car. someone got water sucked into there motor having a true CAI too. Don't need to name any names you both know who you are.

I hate to be rude and say it but it's totally the drivers fault. To suck up enough water to kill the motor the filter has to be submerged. My CAI air filter is 5mm from my tire without a fender linear and pretty close to the ground. I've drive through several inches of water many times a year and my filter is less than a foot off the ground. Being right next to the tire it gets completly drenched every time it rains.

And the other one trying to make it a race car was using a 75 shot of wet nitrous I believe..? a 75 shot is a lot for a tiny engine and a crappy transmission.

was the 75 shot his first try or did he start off small? like i would do a 10 shot then a 15 but i think i would stop at 25 shot unless you go and replace internals

[mikedudley17]

im willin to bet a 35 shot would suit just fine but its all a guessing game right now and u always run the risk of messin up ur car when u use nos.

correction, u run the risk of messin up ur car when u modify anything on ur car.

i would do a 25 shot just to see what it would do for times but it would have to be easy to install and Medical grade NO2 i want to ge high if i mess my car up!!!!!!!!!!

Nitrous is very easy to install... Can be done in under 2 hours...

There is actually a very nice write-up about it in this month's issue of Project Car Magazine... I suggest you all go out and grab a copy if you are interested in installing Nitrous to your car...
