lol 70hp instantly..
Nitrousoxide allows for more fuel to be burned = more ponies
my pink geo metro had No2
weeeeeeeeeee

its kinda funny though...the game has everything BUT nos... i dont get it.. most pimped out cars around here have nos systems in it... it ads a good 70+ hp and totally eliminates turbo lag... but..whatever
I beg your pardon? First of all it's not called "turbo lag". The name is load pressure delay.
NOS doesn't have anything to do with the turbo so what you're saying is plain bs.
The only way to keep the load pressure constant is to keep the rpm up while gearing.

turbo lag? well theres only turbo lag if u cant shift... and have too big of a turbo
Correct.

i dont know much about superchargers and turbos, but i asked a mechanic what was that noise i hear when a wrx goes down the street when shifting gears and it was the blowoff valve that he said eliminates the lag from turbos when shifting gears
The common name is dump valve, and it doesn't eliminate the need to re-establish the load pressure between gear shifts. A dump valve releases overpressure.
"Turbo Lag" and "Blow-off valve" are commonly accepted terms, so you don't have to nitpick.
And nitrous decreses load pressure delay by incresing the amount of exhaust (more air from the nitrous burning the extra fuel = more exhaust), increaseing exhaust pressure to accelerate the impeller bringing it up to speed faster. While it's not "totally eliminating" turbo lag in the physics sense, it's possible to reduce it to the point of it not being an issue.
A dump valve can reduce compresser impeller loading from overpressure which can lower the impeller speed from the resistance. (no exhaust moving the exhaust impeller with a greater load on the intake impeller tends to slow the turbo down), Which means less effort to get impeller speed back up (since it didn't drop as much) causing less load pressure delay.
Since load pressure delay is a a result of lost load pressure while gearing you're telling me that using NOS while gearing would reduce the delay. Haha. Keep it up...
You don't have load pressure delay while driving the car with an engine that has rpm, so more exhaust as a result of NOS will not affect the non-existing load pressure delay.
It is when you release the throttle that the engine rpm decreases, resulting in less exhaust so the turbo pressure drops. You don't have to be a race car driver to understand that while keeping the engine rpm up while gearing you eliminate load pressure delay, simply because the load pressure doesn't fall.
Unless you use NOS while shifting gears, when the rpm drops instead of keeping the rpm up with the pedal, NOS will not have any on load pressure delay - yet I wonder how long your engine would last with NOS between each gear shift...
Does Loki's post look edited to you (?) it sure doesn't look edited to me.
Stop trolling the forum.
1, i never said that loki's post was edited
2, i give up trying to explain anything to you

NOS, turbos, and superchargers don't add HP. They add torque, but whatever.
This is by far, the absolute stupidest thing I have ever read in my whole life...
How about this: antifreeze doesn't cool off the engine, it prevents freezing.
Turbo lag is most common in first gear, because the turbo needs to spool(spin as fast as it can to reach the desired pressure) The bigger the turbo, the more lag there is.. Not much lag between shifting since it is fully spooled already.

nos doesn't add horsepower. but anyways, i prefer the realism over a screen where everything is blurry but your car. all that high speed stuff is getting old...
Are you retarded, put a car on a dyno, run it with no spray, next run with spray. It does add HP AND tourqe. Its an oxidzer so it helps fuels burn faster and hotter, how when it vaporizes when injection the nitrogen seperates from the oxygen which IS flamable, and the more O2 in the motor the more fuel you can run. Not to mention it cools the intake charge which makes the air more dense, more air means more power.

yeah, whatever :cool2:
ok, i idn't finish reading everyones post about the NOS...but, alo of the other posts are true besides the no horse power or torque....just like drag racing, they usually run NOS from ignition or throttle control...i've seen someone run NOS at a drifting comp b4 so it's not just drag...the whole point of it is that...hmmm....idk, i got ahead of myself, lol....so, yeah, umm...theres a migc button for the little ricers because if u run NOS straight with out puting new seats for the valve and valves, u'll fu the engine. Anywho, this topic was all fucked up to begin with!

Wow.
Sure, i was high that night so don't burn me to much on my post...yeah i knew about your post anyway!
AND...ur wrong about "turbo lag" theres always lag, you may just not notice it, and i'd like to see a car tht put out that much power without any "turbo lag"... even turbo powered drag cars have "turbo lag" and they admit to it!!!
I'd like N2O. I'd like to be able to tune my ECU. I'd like neons. I'd like more than one front bumper with adjustable down-force. If I asked if there was a mod in existance that added these, should I be flamed for attempting to decrease the realism of the game? No. I don't give a flying ^#$& about realism. If you want your game to be realistic, then don't use those mods. Just try and be polite if other people have different preferences.

Actually, antifreeze DOESN'T cool off the engine. It's the water that has all the heat absorption properties. Thats why you have to mix anti-freeze with water (some types come pre-mixed). The anti freeze lowers the freezing temperature of the water. Thats why when theres ice all over your car in the morning, your coolant system isn't all frozen up too... cause that would be bad... Anti freeze also has junk in it that helps slow down corrosion. I believe it may also increase the boiling point of water... but I'm not completely sure on that.
edit: and btw... to stay on topic... whens the last time you were watching a professional race on tv, and a driver who was neck and neck with an opponent on a straightaway hit the nitrous? I'm extremely glad they left nitrous out of forza, and I won't be very happy if it shows up in forza 2.

lol you sir, are wrong. put water alone in your car and see what happens. it will boil and you will overheat. antifreeze cools the engine as well as prevents it from freezing. antifreeze doesnt lower the freezing point of water, it combines with the water and forms a different substance.

lol, you come in here talking shit. Antifreeze does lower the freezing point of water as so do many other substances such as salt. Go back to chemistry... and don't bring old threads up.

ive never drained my bikes coolant over winter or used antifreeze i lucky i havent split block
and yeah i can see tiy bits of rust in the rad so your right and killman i cant remember his name
is spot on
nitrous splits into nitrogen and oxygen which whe added to extra fuel increases the power
(effectively making a bigger bang/engine)
even if it did just add torque if you at torque to any speed your adding power
300lb/ft of torque at 4000rpm is more powerful than 200lb/ft at 4k
this game (and F2) needs fully programmable ecu's (for low power pulling, or
high end hp numbers or a mix)
who's got the old viper and put the ratio's to maximum accel fd and 1st top speeds like 2mph
we need trucks on this thing lol
anyways this is my first post so forgive me, all in all this is the best game end of but it needs to
take ibts off other games
