When any RX8 goes to the drag racing track, they put out cones and do a slalom.
Sooo, quarter mile time is 43.8 seconds... with nitrous.

So just for the fun of it, I used the 'search' function on this forum.
Searching titles only, I tried 'nitrous' as the search word.
Guess what I came up with? A TON of information about your question

https://www.rx8club.com/search.php?searchid=4613744

Now for the info that the search function can not help you with
Easy E1, BHR, and Charles Hill are kinda the gurus. So read their threads first.
