Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Forced Induction couple of nitrous questions

I have a 96 Duratec ATX with 103K, would I be able to safely run a 50 or 75 shot of nitrous? If so, what company would you recommend and would the tranny pose a problem? Also, I only have your basic intake, exhaust mods. Should I work on other stuff like TB, injectors and mass air flow before I even think about nitrous? finally, can either the turbo kit or supercharger work on the ATX? Thanks alot

depends on how your vehicle maintained, and your tranny. Personally with 100k on the clock on the motor and tranny. I think tranny would go boom first, and then, down the road, the motor might not like you anymore.

you should be fine with your stock injectors (assuming they're clean and in good working order) unless you break a 100 shot. TB is overrated imho, a pro-m and chip definately couldnt hurt though The vortech SC will not work with the ATX, the turbo kit will, chris' car will be the first to get 'teh turbo' iirc and hes running an ATX
