OH...LOL....I have never heard of such a thing
 
Is it either good or bad for the car? WHY would you want to do that????
 
Just curious.....and bored..LOL
It's the same stuff your dentist uses to make you crawl on the ceiling while he works inside your mouth. It increases the amount of fuel that your engine is capable of burning. This results in more power being produced.
I would do this because.........well, just because. lol. It will make my 5500lb truck into a land missile.

it is good if you want to go faster.
Youve never seen Fast and Furious have you?
With 75hp jets, this should land me in the 450-475hp range.

2010 Tundra 5.7 w/6speed auto and 4.30:1 rear axle. A guy I know from the interwebs has the TRD supercharger and just added a 30 shot. He should be nearing the 600hp mark with his. He is running in the 12s (before the nitrous) with a near 5,000 lb truck. I'd like to add the S/C to mine, but at $5000 it's just too much money. The superchargers are covered under the 60,000 Toyota powertrain warranty, too. If one of our properties would sell, I could afford it....want some vacant land near Kansas City?
 
Here's the truck...

very nice.....
here in ny, if you're smart about it, you can weasel the dmv into giving you a discount if you add a turbo or supercharger to your car because turbos and s/c are ''better on gas/more fuel efficien'' of course, if they saw what else went along with the turbo, they might change their tune, lol

Many of the guys with S/Cs have posted a full 2mpg increase during everyday driving. I'd LOVE to have one.
Auburn just recently released a Pro Series LSD for our trucks. Hopefully, I'll be able to pick one up before Christmas.
What type of car do you guys run?

NOS is overrated Yes it is INSTANT HP. However it is way to hard on Pistons and Rings. Your setup is not right your looking at 5K Overhaul for an engine to accept it. Now with a Turbo it is Free Power or Supercharger you can put in a Popoff Valve and never get above say 10PSI and not have a problem. Sorry talking to someone that setup motors for NOS.
