    NOs

    NOS is an extream explosion in the combustion chamber due to the O2 in the NOS. It requires a very rich fuel mix to reduce the conbustion. Yes, the extra fuel acts as a anti combustable and coolent to keep the O2 in the NOS from melting the alum pistons and other parts. If you get the mix wrong, a new motor is in your future My point about the clutch is, NOS kicks like a mule, tubo builds and then has lag, then rebuilds after shifting, then lag, and so on. All of this should show that if James 200hp bike with Nos and kicking like a mule worked fine with an OEM clutch and better springs, a tubro 200hp bike should do even better with the same clutch set up

      yup, correct! You got me there

        Welcome, but 8 to 9 lbs boost will take you to 130 hp tops So I am guessing you are just having fun with dreaming / thinking what bike you would like to have someday. That is cool, hope you do it sometime

        OK, if your really palnning or even thinking about a turbo for your bike, sorry about that last post, just seamed like we were being played I hope it works great and would really love to see some pic's on how you do it and how well it works, good luck with your bike
        Are you ok? Mood swings?
        The bike will get boosted. I'm very busy but it will happen, although I could honestly care less what you think. I'm just looking for help here. I don't need someone telling me I won't do something. I'm great at working with metal and know how to mig and tig mild steel and aluminum.

        You'd be surprised how lean you can run a nitrous setup. It's excessive timing that kills nitrous motors. Contrary to popular belief, rich tunes also damage nitrous motors.

          Ok Boys settle the jets a bit. I just posted "as asked" if anyone had other opinions and I knew a racer who had run the setup.
          Ninety...Oem was probably just concerned that you were MIA for a while after your last post. To some who frequent the forum more than others we get a bit antsy when someone does not respond to the postings.
          OEM, discussion is one thing but you may have to temper your remarks a bit as posting crap like "we are being played" is not acceptable at least to me. I do know you apologized for that but hey it is a card layed is a card played.
          Sorry James but I will defer to people I personally know over yourself...that said I know neither of you personally so I trust what my buddy told me. That is what I passed on. Your experiences may have led to a different conclusion. So be it.
          The discussion is will the stock clutch and springs hold the HP. I personally do not know. I willl never need to know as these bikes have all the giddy-yup-go I need already.
