NOS installed!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the way that looks!!!!
VW was nice enough to leave a space open in the fuel line loom so the NO2 line has a nice clean run up to the front of the car.

You actually can't see the solenoids unless you get your head under the air filter.


I couldnt find a red safety switch anywhere in town so I had to get the fake carbon fiber one, not really a fan of it but, it will work until I get a red one. and then the lovely white shift knob with GO button.

More NOS

Got the bottle filled and the go button shift knob ready. Can't wait for tomorrow MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

Adding NOS

After some time doing some routine maintenance on the stock motor I went ahead and ordered a NOS kit. It arrived today and I will be installing it tomorrow. I will be starting with a 75hp shot and then see how a 100hp shot feels. I will get some pics up after the install

The begining

Here is what we are starting with. 1992 VW Corrado VR6 SLC, 5 speed.  The project list is long and constantly being added and subtracted from BUT, here are the main things I will accomplish.

First, at 125k miles the motor isn't smoking or lacking power but, it isn't ready to handle future upgrades, neither is the transmission. So, I am going to build a stout motor with a forged bottom end with ARP pins. After previously running a 900hp Cummins diesel Dodge Ram it goes without saying that we will be applying retarded amounts of boost at some point. HP goal is to be around 400whp on fuel with NOS getting it 500whp.
