Nitrous Oxide System? Like Nawwwwzzzz.... Does NOS imply a wet system and Nitrous imply a dry system? Did I miss something? lol

Agreed, interested in what the 2.5 can do NA, no NOS.
Slicks, etc are ok, try to stick with bolt on mods though.
Thanks,

nos certainly does makes a kit that will work on contours.

This freaking NOS crap is getting very annoying... next time you say Kleenex or something along those lines I hope someone says... It's sanitary tissue or whatever and they punch you in the face.

Disagreement here!  <yep>
I can't for the life of me see how breaking in an engine can make THAT much of a difference. In longevity of the engine yes, but power production, NO.
That is solely a product of mass flow in, and power extracted, or the efficiency of it. Then of course there is weight, atmospheric properties the day it was tested...etc.
I totally agree. I've heard of SHOs pulling 14.5s with just a filter and I've heard of fox body mustangs pull 13s stock. Plus some people just drive like mad men at the track!
I have never seen a 5.0 run 13's stock. the best I have seen is 15.0
Ya even with slicks i am pretty sure a stock 5.0 would make it into the 13's. They got a good bit of torque...but the HP is just lacking in that motor without some work to go with it.
My brother's old 88 hatch had just about every bolt on possible, bored .030 over, 10:1 JE pistons, and a sh1tty ATX and it ran 13.0 flat. I'll try and dig up some slips to show ya.....
