Dear Ca.com, my love for car audio is on the rocks

nitrous wont fry your engine if properly installed, a blower or turbo will put constant strain on a stock engine, destroying it quicker.

nah I know plenty of people out on the track that use nitrous responsibily and have had engines that exist just fine on it for a long long time. Im not talking about a 250 shot or anything //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I think it would be a fun addition, thanks for the reinforcement on this speedfreak.

its kinda hard to keep hobbies somtime. Time and money restricts alot of it. I use to skate all the time said how I was gonna skate the rest of my life. Would always drive miles far to go skate. With work and high gas prices. I feel like never skating anymore. Good thing u dont gotta do much to listen to bass lol. Just get in your car. And you can have the most fun just installing stuff right in your garage!

You can send me your amps in compensation for the one that I lack. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

how about a wet NOS package for an l98, got one of those lying around ? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

im only pulling 8.78's in the 1/8 mile at the moment, which I guess isnt too bad condiering the mostly stock nature of my engine. Ive only got headers and ANSA exhaust on it, and thats pretty much all the mods worth mentioning.

[snoopdan 5,000+ posts]

heh, its cool. ive been lurking over at the corvette forums trying to find a used setup.... but I might just break down and buy a full kit.

This was how it was before we repainted it

Was your car originally that rare something-berry color?

New paint looks good, definitely nice to see a non-red(stock red)/black/silver C4.

Especially in Kentucky, I would imagine, if you're around Bowling Green Corvettes must be all over. Nice to stand out.

Welcome to the club; don't think I've been into Car Audio since 2002. I just came here because of a breakin / my audio was stolen. Never left because of all you wonderful people.

Nitrous fries your engine //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
It's not worth it. Get a turbo, S/C, or even a blower.

B!tch's go "WEEEEEEEAAAA!" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/driving.gif.c4dead4599dda895032b63e51f52b126.gif

Depends what you are putting it on and who does it, lol! I did mine on my z24 cavalier with quite a bit of work to it. But 100 shot of NOS after many times using it warped my head, lawlers!

Timeslips?

 

[bigbangtheory 5,000+ posts]

Who me? IIRC it was in the high 12's, low 13's. I don't have TS anymore. This was back in 2001.

 

[snoopdan 5,000+ posts]

if you're asking me, I guess I could scan a timeslip in but its nothing super fast. 8.78 at the 1/8th mile track.
