If it's a more even race NA vs. NA, then run them NA. Unless you think your car is a turd. But the point is just be a decent human being and tell the truth. Don't be a scumbag low-life slimeball. Pretty simple. Be a human being.

+1 when you spray and get raped by a large turbo vette you wouldn't call it cheating....

yea, I have about a grand or so in my nitrous system right now and its just a wet kit with a few bells and whistles. I plan on getting a direct port kit this summer after the 408's broken in some. It adds up well beyond any cheap honda turbo kit those guys probably have lol. Some people just cant stand to lose.

yeah i agree with noyzee on this one, my standalone system cost me close to 550, thats the price of a whole kit, and im not about to tell yall how much the d/p was. and after all the money i spent i changed my mine and went with a different intake and a 2 stage plate kit. i have raced my car on the street and sprayed many people that said "motor for motor". well last time i checked that is on motor, my nitrous is spraying straight into my motor and my motor is turning the wheels. i like to race my car on motor and i have not problem doing it, if im racing a friend. if jo schmo comes out with the big head and thinks he can kick whoever in the nuts i have a surprise to him. one race i might be even with a 12 sec car, and he races me in his low 11 sec car and wonders how i put 3 on him. nitrous is fun as long as you arent afraid of it.

What bout if ya just dont tell em tha extension of ur mods? For ex. if ya gotta 383 wit cam, just tell em ya gotta 350 wit a cam. Its still a 350 block, just bored and stroked. lol
