Can a supercharged KLZE handle a small shot of nitrus?

Post by Sean Mandell »

I was planning on supercharging the klze for sure but was thinking that if 10 seconds would be out of the question with nitrus? Of corse I will be using stand Alone and upgraded fuel system but I was more worried about the internals. can stock internals handle 7psi with say a 75 shot of juice? ;)<p>[ October 03, 2002: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]

The reason some use it with a turbo is to minimize lag. With 7 psi you should experience minimal if any lag. If you did put a 75 shot on the SC/KLZE you would blow your engine instantly. Although if you upgraded internals (custom pistons, rods, shot peined crank) your engine could handle upwards of 500+BHP. I believe Dave Lazier was running 11.1 sec. with his TT BPT with ~480WHP. (aprox. 565BHP @ 15% drivetrain loss)<p>[ October 03, 2002: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]

nitrous works for ANY engine,and will work better in FI situations due to the intercooling effect. <P>Nobody can be sure, but id say it could hold it if its tuned very well, and you have the fuel. I wouldnt trust the axles though.

o re: Being original and running SC + N2O..<P>see a couple of years ago having a klze in your mx-3 was the newest performance mod. now there are tons of people out there tuning the klze. the mx-3 is evolving and thanks to everyone that tries and spend $$$$ to the R&D of the ultimate mx-3. We have conquered the klze swap now we could either be satisfied or want more. If we limit ourselves then there would be no excuse for living. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

I also know a very well known tuner for japanese engines and he has been tuning j-spec cars for 20 years. He can get 230 whp from a b16 naturally aspired. I think that u might be biased cause u might have had problems tuning ur car and tuning that might be hard for u is easy for someone with more knowledge. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]
