Nitrous on C5
Hello All,
I wanted to ask you what are your receommendations or expiriences with nitrous on a 2002 Corvette (6 Speed with 88,000 miles).
I daily drive it and have full bolt-on (headers, exhaust, hi flows, cai, tuned etc)
I just want to feel an extra kick on the car.
Theres a motorsport that states I should do a 100 shot.
I am not looking to spend a lot (e.g. supercharger, turbo, etc)
Thank you!

I am in your same boat and posted here recently. The general consensus was to:
A)Buy a kit for no more than $500.00
B)The shot should be no more than half your HP, I would go about 50 less than that though to be safe.
Good luck!

I had a A4 2000 daily driver with 150 shot and sprayed for 5 years no prob. All stock internals except springs. It was okay at times prob more fun the fact i was only 21-22 when first hooked it up.
If your looking to play around here and there i dont see anything wrong with a 125 shot.
But dont get it wrong something def can and will go wrong. Do all your homework.
