port blower or nitrous
- Thread starter 03phil
- Start date
Go with both :burnout: . I yielded about 30hp across the board from 4800rpm to 6300rpm with the apten port. Torque was about the same (500). Definetly was worth the money IMO. Should yield you about 1 to 2 mph in the 1/4 and give you that extra umph to put it past any other bolt on Cobra.
I just got back from the dyno.
I have
BBK LT's
Short O/R H
Magnaflo Catback
Steeda CAI
2.80 pulley
Apten Second gen port
Car made 513hp and 500tq.
Even though peak tq wasn't raised it held almost 25-30 foot pounds more from 4800rpm to 6200rpm than opposed to the stock blower
I was certainly impressed. Tried to make a N20 pass at 3500rpm and the clutch didn't like it . So hit it at about 4800rpm (so it wouldn't slip as much) and it still made 626hp and 570tq :coolman: N20 is a NX wet kit 100 shot jets. My 2 cents is go with the blower you won't regret it.

Do both, but if you can only afford 1 right now I would do the ported blower first. Its always on and you dont have to fill it up
I have the same problem, ported blower or nos??? The blower cost more, but is always there.... decisions/decisions
apten before n20, lower pulley before n20.
both or do the KB upgrade
Go with both. Over 600rwhp!
Well, 1st you need to address your traction problems...lol. Then, nothing will give you a SOTP thrill like N20 will. Yeah, the ported blower is cool but it isn't gonna give you 5+ tenths and MPH like the juice will.

Ported blower or nitrous?? Both, duh!! :rockon:
By the way:
NOS = Nitrous Oxide Systems (a division of Holley Performance)
N2O = Nitrous Oxide
NOS is a company, not the gas itself. :thumbsup:
P.S. If I had to choose, it would be ported blower without a second thought. Hope this helps.

Do you remind people that Kleenex is actually facial tissue as well? :burn:
J/K, just don't know why people are so compelled to state the above. :bored:

ditto...
The juice will yield much bigger power gains depending on what shot you would use. It would be the least expensive route, too. However, a better long-term route to take if you're sticking with the Eaton (vs. a Whipple or KB) would be to port the Eaton and add a 4 lb. lower. Then add the juice. As mentioned above, juice is only good if your bottle is full. A ported blower makes power all the time. But remember if you're looking to make more power AND more torque you're going to have to add that lower crank pulley because you won't see much torque gain at all (some even lose torque) with the ported blower.
racers, are you running stock injectors with your nitrous ? i'm looking at a very similar set up and i was wondering if a boost a pump will be enough.

Stock injectors with the bap works good on my car :rockon:
what nitrous kits w/ part #'s are you all using???
