OK, I'm boosting the old 89' thunderstang at 16 psi. The hood is modified to ram more air through the intercooler. The intake is ported and I have the large vam from a old 87 tbird w/ the brown top injectors. Now I have a Q for you more experienced 2.3 turbo guys. I was interested in the NX N-tercooler system but if I do that I may as well just inject it into the engine. The engine is new with very few miles. Would a 35-50 shot of the juice hurt the car at all? I heard a few people say different things. The pistons should be fine and I was thinking if it can handle boost from a turbo why not a small shot of the funny gas?

I started with a 50 shot and ended up well over a 100shot. 100 is where I've stayed with and its been nearly 30 bottles with minimal problems.
I would do something with the ignition and fuel systems

Ok. My Cobra had the entire msd ignition system including the BTM box, ign. coil and distributor. It cost about 600 bucks for that not incl. wires and plugs. The rotor and cap was replaced once a month due to the amount of corossion and wear of the points. Should I just get a good ignition coil or the whole setup again? As far as fuel, I'm sporting a 190LPH inline pump with the stock pump. The car don't start without the inline pump on.

The stock ignition is good to over 450hp from what ive been told, I would get a coil, and some colder plugs. It would be better to inject it into the tb, rather than just waste it on the stock ic. If you really want to get a spray bar and put on the ic, c02 would be the best way I think to do this, its ALOT cheaper than nos. The fuel pump in the tank should also be a 190lph, to keep the engine nice and happy. Im doing the nos thing this summer as well and it should very interesting as far as power goes.
