hi there

for those who can remember i have the green corsa with the NOS init.
recently ran it at a drag event here in south africa and did well, best time was a 15.31
recently i added a cold air intake to the front bumper (see pic below)
next step is to box off the filter




any comments welcome.
for more pictures and videos of my car at the drag event see the gallery section at www.teamkrazy.com

How big are the nitrous jets?

I am currently running a 1.6 16v with Dbilas throttle bodies, cams etc.. and manage to do a 15.249 1/4 mile. I have got a good nitrous oxide system with progressive controller and everything sitting at home with 50bhp jets. Just wondering how much time I could knock off my 1/4 mile time if I fitted my nitrous!

Well if 60bhp of NOS can push a standard 1.6 8v running 17's that looks quite heavy, think I might have to put my 50bhp nitrous kit on and get some mid 14's!

hi there KitCorsa you will have to fly your car to auto extreme in smith street durban :-) or you can just get a funnel shapped aero thing and get it moulded into your bumper
