Default T-Rex + n2o

Hey guys just wondering how the trex cam reacts to nitrous. Im debating whether i should go for an all motor setup or a nitrous setup.

It's an NA cam so obviously it's not optimal, but if you aren't spraying huge amounts, you'll be fine.

AGREED. Unless it is a dedicated race car that only runs at the track, then the enjoyability factor is not worth the extra performance on the juice. I am not currently spraying my car (even though the kit is hooked up with a full bottle!) but when i do, i think i will only spray for money races or at the track. The cars already fast enough for my comfort level at WOT, only had it for about 1 week and not used to it yet.

You would think with a 6 degree split it would like the juice pretty good. Would the 110 LSA not be optimal for spray?

that's nice and all, but another cam would have liked the nitrous more.

any cam will work with nitrous unless your planning to spray a lot.
