Dual power adders or not?

I currently have nitrous on the car(stock bottom end 150shot) and was debating buying a p600b from a friend.

If i did this however, id have to buy or make a intercooler for it. As well as rebuild the bottom end.

I really didnt have plans to rebuild the bottom end yet, and i suppose i could postpone the install till spring.

But that brings me to the next question, how hard is it to run 2 poweradders at once. I know a few guys do it, but what kind of tuning complications do you run into. I know its not just as easy as 1..2..3..

And with 2 poweradders im sure the 10bolt wont hold very long

So what would you do in my shoes, go with the S/C and nitrous set-up or just keep it the way it is?

A centrifugal and N2O are an awesome combo. Just bring plenty $$$ to the party.

Re: Dual power adders or not?

Yeah its definently gonna be a pricey project to get off the ground. But i think if i build the bottom end correctly and tune it correctly i shouldnt have a problem after that.

Dunno yet, the combo is new...the motor has about 500 miles on it, and it's getting dyno-tuned by Jeff from CAM out here in CA on the 28th! The kit is the NX 50-150hp, but I'll probably have him tune it with a 100 shot. I'll post numbers next week.

I'll second that! But it sure is fun

I run a 6 psi Vortech on a forged 355 and add a 100 wet shot for a total of 592 rwhp (462 without the n20). Yup, n2o can have a 'compounding' benefit. A gain of 130 rwhp on a 100 shot jetting. And this was with a mail order tune. Mine is getting a dyno tune by Jeff from CAM next week as well so, we'll see if I can sneak over the 600 mark!
