    Small nitrous bottle in engine bay?

    Yes. Most of us that run nitrous actually use a bottle warmer to raise the bottle pressure...and it doesn't take too much heat to raise the bottle pressure. If you put the bottle in the engine the pressure will rise at an uncontrollable rate...at least until the safety valve release all your...

    pi heads swap vs S/C

    Some people say that the increase compression with PI heads is not good for Forced Induction. But if you know you want to S/C later, just change out to different pistons while doing the swap to reduce the compression.

    pi heads swap vs S/C

    I am glad I did the head swap and some bottom-end work. I like getting the most out of my car naturally aspirated. The only thing I will suggest it to get after market cams while you are at it...if finances permits. And for those very rare days that I actually go to the track, the 100 NX wet...

    97 GT PI HEAD SWAP NEW DYNO SHEET OF NEW TUNE INSIDE

    I posted this dyno sheet last week about my tune after the PI Heads. With a result of 258.2 RWHP and 301 FT. LB. I felt that the tuner was rushing the job because he has another car waiting. Anyways, I decided to get a new tune and a flip switch while I'm at it. The tuner removed the...

    97 GT PI HEAD SWAP DYNO SHEET INSIDE

    The beast is completely street legeal and always pass smog test. The h-pipe has cats and I went with shorty headers instead of long tubes for the same reason. Everything looks stock, you can't even tell that I have new heads and intake unless I tell you. :) BTW, I didn't change out the cam...

    FINALLY DOING THE SWAP.....

    Also I have to agree, like you said, mine did run like stock after the swap. So, who knows the tunner may be wrong...didn't really get a good impression anyways.

    FINALLY DOING THE SWAP.....

    Yes. But it will be lean as heck! (15:1 to be exact) and will eventually blow up if driven really hard.

    motor mounts

    You can get some from the dealership. Also, change the tranny mount also while you are at it. Mine were so bad that the engine will bounce if I hit a hard bumb in the road and twist around when I rev the engine. You can see them on the floor in this picture...you can also see the new ones...
