100 shot of Nitrous!!! how long have you run it?

I have look but didn't find much. This is mostly for the z4m guys, but I don't mind hearing from others. I would like to run a 100 shot on my M. TIA

I don't recall anyone trying it here. E46 M3 crowd might have however, and there are many many more of those S54 powered cars out there.

I wouldn't recommend this unless you have a spare $8-10K lying around for an engine repair. If you want to go fast, get a C5 Z06 or something. You'll thank me later.

The Z4M is my favorite car of all time and I've had a ton of cool, very fast cars. I like modifying the way my Z4M looks, handles, etc., but the motor to me is a no man's land. If I wanted to go fast in a straight line, I'd get something else.

I have a 400 rwhp '92 MR2 turbo and I want it to be just as fast, so I can sell the MR2. That is why I'm trying to make it a little faster. I really love the Z4M.

I'm assuming you mean a wet shot, because the stock injectors probably won't support another 100 rwhp. You'll need a separate fuel pump and tank. There was a guy on here a few years ago running a 75 shot. You can look him up, but I think he's gone now.

Nice man, I've owned several MR2 Turbos going back in years. My 91 had a 20g on it, fully built up motor running 20psi. Man was that thing a rocket ship, the only thing that sucked was changing the distributor cap about every 1k miles. I had a box full of them I needed to change them so much! It was a very dangerous car though due to the speed and twitchy mid engine handling. The guy I sold it to actually totaled it out on the HW doing close to 100mph. He broke both legs and arms, suffered a head injury, and was in a coma for 4 days. He was lucky to live.

I loved the MR2, but I can't see myself getting another. If I wanted to relive my JDM days, the only cars I'd really consider are a Supra MKIV (owned one already) or an imported Skyline GTR so I could go all Jackie Chan Thunderball.

You've done well getting a Z4M. I can't explain why it's my favorite car of all time, it just is.
