RX8 & RX7 owner
Arrrrrrrrr!!!The best way I can describe my experience when in "boost" is a harder VTEC transition. The sound the engine makes at that point is vicious and the pull is hard through to redline! Maybe not what I was ultimately expecting but will definitely make more cars familiar with the rear end of an RX8.

yeah def not in that range i dont think with an auto
MAYBE high 14's with some other mods, hard to say really
longer pulls mean your out of power for a longer time, take a look at our HP curves

Sure.. but not worth it.. I can always refill this one and it's not like I'm going to be going through 1 tank every 3 days like my first one. Now that I know what it feels like I'm going to get it refilled and let it just be there for those "comparison" runs.
Mmmmmhmm!

It's a Cavalier
Ow. $4.79... The cheapest they charge is $3.50 a pound down here at a local speedshop. They chill your bottle, so I drop it off at lunch, and pick it up after work. But this guy says he doesn't really make any money off it... just does it to bring in business.
You have a nice setup. You should be having fun with it. We all factored in the price of nitrous before going this route. Pay-as-you-go power!

Soo... somthing happened and my intake box went boom!
Not so bad really.
The air filter is a bit screwed..
The two screens that straighten airflow were blown out..
My MAF blew out of it's socket..
The two clips on the front of the airbox are gone..
I was at 6k rpm in second.. put my foot down.. 2 seconds later I hear a pop.
The car drives fine.. the idle is great for the most part but there is a little stutter.. it wants it's screens back!
