Nitrous'd 04 3.5RL Running Loose

I jetted the nitrous up a touch to 65hp on my car, so I decided to shoot a short video and share it.

Runs with and without Nitrous (Good comparison)

YouTube - 2004 3.5RL Nitrous Video

"Not fast in the grand scheme of things, heh, but for a big fat assed car, the shit is fast."

It shows if you give some folk a choice they make the wrong one, but the wrong choice is better than no choice at all.

Damn that thing moves with nitrous!

B+O is the shortened version of his old name, Band & Olufsen DK, lol. It doesn't have to do with body odor.

Well then BAF, you don't suck.

I think I'm giving up more acceleration than I wanted by cutting it off at 5600rpm. I didn't notice it until I was watching the videos. I think I'm going to push it back up to 5800. Initially I was just trying to stay off the rev limiter with the nitrous (5800) but with the lower setting (5600) I was trying to cut the nitrous off momentarily to ease the 1-2 shift.

What good are balls if they aren't to the wall anyway?

LOL @ Video...nice

That nitrous is setup and the run to 100 are lovely. Why would i ban you? looked like VIR to me

Yea Matt got it right, it's Bang&Olufsen DK. my old screen name. got tired of my fingers auto-piloting that entire name so i shortened it. Some of the older guys still refer to me as Bang I like that

You know we've got a guy that runs with us sometimes we call 'Bang Bang' but that's cause he's a little quick on the trigger if you know what I mean... He gets a lot out of the strip club...a lot.

Nice vid, the nitrous run is the way the car should've come from the factory. Big improvement. Looks like fun.
