Well when a turbo is to large to be spooled in a timely maner then n2o becomes helpfull, you would need to be running a gt42 or larger though at above 20psi which will require a full detailed build anyways.

Exactly... I see no point what so ever in running 6 or 7 psi with a 55 shot. The risk to reward ratio is leaning heavily towards the "risk" side.

2.0ltr DOHC 16valve ZETEC from a 2000 Merc Cougar, same engine in the Focus, similar to the Escort too. 130hp @ 5,750rpm and 130tq @ 4,250rpm redline @ 6,950rpm stock specs.

As it sits right now it's closer to 185hp and 185tq @ 6,000rpm and redlines at 7,150rpm

The turbo I am looking at is for the Focus, but some Escort guys are using it too.

turbo + nitrous + poor engine management = windowing engine block.

Well ****, why are you posting this on a Honda forum!?[&:]

Why is it all the Ford guys *have* to have nitrous.

I am posting on a Honda Forum because I want to.

I did not come in here and start bashing Hondas.

I just like to see what the Honda Boys are doing.

I do not have to have nitrous, I want nitrous. I've done everything else except a bottom end build, so next step is turbo and nitous.
