is it not noby 2 drift with nos????
pop-n-freshis it not noby 2 drift with nos????
CoolGeekzi only use nos if i have a car that has to stay in a certain powerband to keep drifting...if the revs get too low i bump it back up to keep the drift going
examples:
Nissan Skyline M
Mazda Autozam AZ-1
sidewayzinCAkatsuhiro Ueo is the only driver in D1 who uses nitrous. he's got a corrolla so its ok. and he does use it mid-drift not just to gain speed. most of the cars in D1 can reach the speeds that they need to very easily.
What depends on how, when & where/etc...? S'plain Lucy.DARKEST_HOURDepends how where when/ect.
What's the basis for you thinking that? Nitrous is freakin' great (yes it is really that great). It's a self contained tubo/supercharger in a bottle, LITERALLY. N20, 2 parts nitrogen, 1 part oxygen. Naturally if you've got it plumbed into your intake track, it will force extra air into the combustion chamber, pretty simple everyone already knew that. When N20 reachs a certain temperature (I can't remember what temp exactly) the chemical reaction enduced by heat causes the nitrous molecules to seperate from the oxygen molecule. This reaction causes an instant cooling effect. That's why they offer bottle warmers for nitrous sytems, to reduce the amount of time it takes for that chemical reaction to take place. That is also why they recommend certain types of nitrous kits be installed a certain distance from your primary (first) intake runner to recieve air from the manifold. It promotes proper atomization (separation of nitrogen and oxygen molecules), the cooler your intake charge becomes the denser the air becomes and is more likely to remain that way. So why do they spray intrecoolers with nitrous? The same reason, when the hot air from a turbo goes through an intercooler, it relies on the heat transfer abilities of the material of an intercooler, and the design of the bars and fins in the rows. Nitrous will nearly double your intercoolers cooling effieciency and help retain air density which WILL drop from having to run through X amount of piping to reach the intake manifold. Will it make your car run hotter, no. Will it promote proper combustion under increased pressure, yes. People who hate nitrous just refuse to acknowledge the possibilities it can offer you if you know how, when and where you want to use it.DARKEST_HOURwouldn't nos make your engine run hotter?
It's come to the point where they almost HAVE to use nitrous. Example: D1GP drivers linking the S-Section of Tsukuba into the 2nd hairpin and stretching it out onto the right under the Dunlop bridge. Do they need the nitrous to pull off the link, no. Is it beneficial to their exit speed, VERY MUCH SO. Nitrous is pushing the level of tandems up way higher than it was afew years ago. Everyone makes it out to be they use it to break loose, I'm sure it helps with that, but from the point the turbo spool to WOT there is no spray. It's been clairified before it's to increase exit speeds to increase gaps during tandems, and to a certain extent...retain wheelspin where you'd fall out of boost. So if you want to explain why it'd be so taboo to use it, explain. Because I only see it making drifting even more competitive than it already is.rsmithdriftI think it's taboo to use it as no REAL LIFE drifter would have to resort to using it.
After a respected member explained a different view.DRIFTNYes it is, and a silly Technique.
DRIFTNI had no idea of the benefits from Nitrous.
