S/C...what about NOS?

I thought I saw (but I just can't seems to remeber where), or may I heard that there was a member on here that was S/C and running NOS. Anyways, question is....is there anyone out there that is both S/C and actully running NOS (not just for "show")? If you are hit me up. If your not but you got some info please let me know. Thanks in advance. Clinton

I can only think of two people. El Cid Acura but he had a CL-P so the engine had lower compression so its kinda different. The other is Essarak, but I don't know if he ever used the spray. It was mostly for show.

MtBikR was but he has since moved on to a Allmotor_2000 turbo setup.

Thanks you two. Allout - it was MtBikR's car that I remembered, but his was turbo not S/C with NOS. Mclarenf3387 - Essarak's car was just show and was never used so that's out the window. I will try to find some info on El Cid and see what comes up. Thanks again you two.

Any one else got any leads or info?

I can't imagine dropping the money on a custom turbo and only gettin' 308HP at the wheels. Sure it's a decent gain but I guess I'm use to doubling the HP with that kinda thing. Nice looking setup he has.

Just to clearify for the above post - I am not running a turbo set up. My car is Supper Charged with an Air to Water Intercooler. Two different set ups. The 308whp was on 6lbs of boost. When I got the right belt on I was pushing 9lbs of boost with 340 whp. I know these are not quite the 379 whp that a turbo makes. I was just try to get some input on possible ways to increase the horse power safely.

how about that ZEX system, cant remeber I think there was someone running it on there CLS. That is an easy system, piggy back system, WOT engage, safe or safer then most.
