Performance DIY by DIY Guru

Nitrous Oxide I have to admit, I love Nitrous Oxide for use in dual purpose street cars. The reasons are simple:nitrous kits are cheap,it is easy to hide,and it is easy to tune and maintain. These reasons coupled with understanding how Nitrous works,and how to use it CORRECTLY make it a good performance booster. Nitrous adds power by adding extra oxygen in a compact form into an engine. Of course,to combust this extra oxygen you need a corresponding amount of extra fuel to accomplish this. Nitrous also cools down the intake charge,making it denser,thereby allowing more molecules per cylinder-making more power. There is no limit in how much liquid Nitrous Oxide you can get into a motor,but the motor itself can only take so much stress before it breaks something. Because nitrous increases cylinder pressure-a product of stuffing more oxygen into a cylinder,rods usually bend before anything else breaks. Running a Nitrous engine lean will cause "hot spots" on...

This is diy can be applied on other cars as well following the same steps and using the correct chipset ! I want to start by saying the reason I chipped my ECU was to use my P28 to run my D15B setup more efficiently. For those of you who consider chipping your ECU to run your forced induction or after-market internal setups consider the price of a professional dyno tuning session. Base Maps are ONLY good for driving your car to a tuning shop and delicately at that. Chipping your ECU for performance gains from a lightly modified setup(such as intake, or exhaust systems) would only be achieved from a good tune, and then the gains would be out-weighed by the cost. The best idea is to figure out all the components you want in your setup, get it all together, install it, and then get it tuned, as any major change to a setup will require you to pay for another tuning session.
