Whats The Fastest Youve Gone


Recommended Posts

172 in a Mustang.

In regards to adding Nitrous to increase top speed, that is a recipie for disaster. If you try and use nitrous in high gear, it will almost certainly break pistons. Under high load/low excelleration situations (like a long pull in high gear) the nitrous mixture in the cylinder will begin to pre-detonate, which is what casues engine damage while using nitrous.

Nitrous is much less damaging when used in lower gears to when the rate of excelleration is higher, such as in a drag race scenario. Every time I have lost a headgasket or a piston on nitrous, it has been in 3rd gear or higher. Look into turbo charging for highway-flying, the introduction of boost is a lot easier on parts, and easier to control pre-detonation.
