Cool What's up, i'm new here


Hey, i'm getting ready to put a NOS sniper kit on my saturn ion redline w/ a supercharged 2.0. I know it's nothing too big, but I just want a little extra boost w/ a 50 shot. Here are a couple pics of my ride.

Thank you chris, i'll be needing some help from you when I get some time to install the kit. Although it looks pretty easy, i'm sure there are tips to make everything a little simpler & work better. I don't want to even start until I get everything like the switch panel, bottle heater, automatic bottle opener. I would actually like somebody w/ a little experience install it, but I don't know of anybody in the SF bay area or hell even northern cali that specializes in nitrous installs. Right now i'm trying to figure out were to find a switch panel to fit somewhere in my car w/ easy access That looks profesional. There's nothing spacific for a saturn ion & not a ton of options on where it might fit in my car. I've been just sitting in my car spacing out, trying to figure out where they would fit. Dyno tune nitrous has a cool looking switch panel for a corvette ashtray w/ a little square nitrous pressure gauge in it, but it doesn't have the bottle opener switch. I like the little square pressure gauge because I really don't have room for anymore round gauges, I want to keep my interior somewhat clean. Maybe you have some ideas. I'm definately getting your bottle bracket w/ the built in heater.

I like the car man. We looked into getting one awhile back. What kindof gas mileage can you get with that? Thats why we looked into them for gas mileage, and it had a supercharger so I thought it was cool!!!!

Thank you, if you don't have a heavy foot, 27 or 28 mpg is normal. Never worse than 24 or 25 mpg. It's pretty good for about a 260hp 4 banger. I'll be over 300hp w/ the juice. That's good enough for me. I wanna keep it reliable.

Yeah, i've did alot to it. K&n cai, cobra h/e, clear image header/ downpipe w/ high flow cat & magnaflow exhaust, 60# injectors, custom hp tune, ttr solid motor mount & poly urethane tranni bushings, a tower strut brace & a rear stabilizer bar, I have a down payment on a TVS supercharger, which is a bigger supercharger that's on the car now. & soon i'll be running a NOS sniper kit w/ a 50 shot. Last year I installed a new LSD tranni w/ an exedy racing clutch, but the exedy wore out really fast for some reason, maybe due to the light flywheel, but I just got done installing a spec 2+ clutch. Everything is good so far.
