I suppose being new here you don't know. Charles R. Hill is the Nitrous God on this site. If you have any questions just ask him.

55 hp works fine for this car. 75 hp jets have been known to cause detonation on the standard tune. Several nitrous threads on here. Search for "nitrous."

I heard that a the renny can handle up to a 125 shot before tuning is necessary to adjust the re-entry orbit

explaining why anyone would cut the floor boards out of a car and replace them with diamond plate pattern plates that would fall out when the piston rings blow.
Priceless

And:

Spilner has blown the piston rings on his green Mitsubishi Eclipse, and the car is in bad enough shape that it is belching out smoke when he rolls up after the race, seemingly the last rolling that car will be doing for a while. However, suddenly, when the police show up, those blown piston rings are no longer a problem and the green Eclipse is loose and outrunning police interceptor patrol cars.

Toretto jumps into the Eclipse for a quick gettaway, but he doesn't seem to worry about his feet hanging out the bottom of the car. Remember, the floor fell out during the race.
