Well, I was going to say nitrous, but I wouldnt want to throw too much hp into the ATX all of the sudden. Having it die sucks.

My gas mileage is killed only if I floor it all the time. (42# injectors will do that!)

Hey Hector, what kind of power are you getting out of the Zetec these days?  Any problems with maintenance on the S/C?

An ATX can use nitrous, just need to get a progresive sontroller that rolls the nitrous on, this will prevent the sudden shock.
A stand alone universal controller is about $300.
