Techncally, nitrous is forced induction. It is forcing more oxygen into the system.

 

im not worried about the nitrous setup, i had nitrous in my maxima...what what are the 4.44's and what do they do? thanks

 

Thanks, you should have seen her in person!!

 

I got to, HIN in Philly she was layed out across a croth rocket! And she was BY FAR the best model there, so you have excellent taste!!

The 4.44's are a ring and pinion gear that goes in your differential. I believe it gives the engine a mechanical advantage over the diff, or something like that. Anyway, it helps your car accelerate quicker, but your top speed will be lower. It like gears on a bike, if you switch to a higher gear, it makes it easier to pedal.

 

whats the best site to get these gears at?

 

4.44 means te driveshaft rotates 4.44 times for every 1 time the wheel turns this gives better off the line exel. but wont kill your top speed think of old muscle cars they usually run 4.56 or 5.13
gears and with all that power lift the front wheels of the ground


i'm not saying with these gears your going to pull the wheels off
but that would be pretty cool

 

buy them from http://www.ricks2k.com/ rick is a sponser to this site and has been here from the begining.
tell him jim sent you

 

of course its forced induction, same with turbo and supercharger. who are you trying to school?

 

I'd disagree. Turbos and superchargers increase the intake manifold pressure. They 'force' more air into the engine. Nitrous sneaks more oxygen in (in the form of N20). FI heats the charge (hence the use of intercoolers) but Nitrous actually cools the charge. FI is continuous, Nitrous finite (you only have a finite number of shots in a bottle).

I can see the cross over but I think if you are talking to someone who knows what they are talking about and ask for examples of FI Nitrous won't be one of them.
