Charles...just think about what you are saying! Do you really want to invest your time into learning all there is to know about NOS when you yourself commented that you'd likely probably never even use it? Why bother then? Seriously....???? The bottom line with NOS is it's totally ridiculous for a street car that you want to last. If you tear down a motor every year and rebuild, well - maybe not so much of a big deal. So common man...be honest with yourself - aren't there so many other areas to put your energy?

Wow, guess you would have never survived the industrial age of invention if a clue fell out of the sky, sat on your face and started to wiggle

To quote School House Rock, "Knowledge is Power". Holy crap, I learned something in the 70's

The Civic is commuter car too... and there is a butt load of people using nitrous, turbos and superchargers for them. What is your point? to each his own, if that's what makes him happy

save NOS for the racecars....that's who should use it. There is a LOT to learn about NOS and how to use it and it's not just about NOS itself...it's the system as a whole and there are so many scientific variables. NOS is affected by IAT, humidity etc., it's affect on air density, flow rates, reversion etc. There are so many variables and even then there is no guarantee that the thing will go off right. Yes, to each his own but that doesn't mean that I can't have an opinion on it, does it? Or wait....apparently it does.

Kcalb,
That's the problem...you think that "Knowledge is power." Well....that is correct to an extent but when people believe everything they read on the internet and consider that knowledge....well, look who the clueless one is. Experience is power.

He has received good information by experienced people in the field. Charles is one of the younger poeple on this forum that actually do their homework when it comes to exploring ideas, politics, careers and the list goes on. He asked for information and he received many good answers.

Chupacabra · 12-31-2008, 03:19 PM

many good answers? That's your opinion, correct? Some good answers...none that tell him a thing in regards to the actual set up and usage of NOS. At this stage, I am willing to stop trying to talk some sense into the guy. As was said before...to each his own and as long as he truly does his homework.....there is no way he'll hook up NOS. Not if he is as reasonable as you state...

not very productive to go into his pro-nitrous thread and tell him he's stupid for using nitrous on a commuter car. pretty sure the point of the thread is to inform people about how to hook up nitrous and set it up properly, etc. you slaggin him for thinking about it just sh!tting on his thread so you can look cool in front of all the other yarisworld.com people. if youre THAT concerned about people using nitrous on a DD, maybe make your own thread informing them of the downsides, rather than starting an argument in an otherwise beneficial thread.

just my 2c.

Trying to look cool in front of yarisworld people? Common man....that's not even remotely close to my intentions. This is a cyberworld.....looking cool??? I have been cool my whole life in "real life." It would be useless to make a thread stating all the downsides....the list is absolutely and completely endless on a daily driven street car like the Yaris. How about you start a thread stating the "positives" involved in setting up and using Nitrous? I would love to see that. No hard feelings though....I mean, the guy can do whatever he wants but based on the info he provided and his intentions (coupled with prior experience), there have to be a shitload of people who can see my point and just have ignored the thread. Perhaps that's what I should have done seeing that the thread would be heavily moderated and that fine b/c I don't pay the bills. I mean.....what a boring forum if you can't have discussion and opinions shared, even if you consider it me shitting on his thread. So...I could go back and forth forever but will chose to leave this thread alone along with the NOS thread.

Chupa, we all saw your point 18 posts ago. The horse is dead man. Stop beating it. You look like an idiot.

hatchbackkid82 · 12-31-2008, 05:36 PM

Seriously, can we lock this damn thread and move on? I don't think it's benefiting anyone anymore ...
