CHEAP JUNKYARD BOOST PLUS NITROUS-HOW TO ADD NITROUS TO YOUR (OTHER GUYS) SUPERCHARGED L67 3800 V6

CAN YOU ADD NITROUS TO A SUPERCHARGED L67 3800 V6? WILL NITROUS WORK AS AN INTERCOOLER? CAN NITROUS LOWER MY CHARGE TEMPERATURES? HOW MUCH POWER IS NITROUS WORTH? CAN YOU COMBINE BOOST WITH NITROUS? WILL THE 3800 TAKE BOTH BOOST AND NITROUS? CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO WHERE I ADDED A WET FOGGER NITROUS KIT FROM NITROUS XPRESS TO A MODIIFED L67 SUPERCHARGED 3800 V6. THE TEST MOTOR WAS FIRST MODIFIED WITH A SMALL COMP CAM, 3.0-INCH BLOWER PULLEY AND TUBE HEADERS. AFTER RUNNING THE MOTOR ON E85 WITH THE HIGHER BOOST, I ADDED THE NITROUS KIT WITH A 52/28 JET COMBO. HOW MUCH EXTRA POWER WAS THE NITROUS WORTH ON THE BLOWER MOTOR AND HOW MUCH DID THE NITROUS AND FUEL LOWER THE INLET AIR TEMPS?

[@GreaseMonkeyGarageTX]

These motors are so much better with an intercooler, so looking forward to that test. At some point cylinder pressure will exceed what the TTY bolts can handle, heads lift and the head gasket blows out.

[@james10739]

Ya but the bolts probably won't fail with that supercharger I mean I didn't at over 500 HP with the nitrous and I don't know how much more power the intercooler will make but in the real world it would just be a lot more reliable because he said on the Dyno it hear soaked fairly quickly and thats not in a hot engine bay

[@GreaseMonkeyGarageTX]

@@james10739 trust me, with a 3.0 pulley an intercooler and a 125 shot of nitrous, the heads will lift. The bolts may not fail, but they will stretch enough to blow out the head gasket and to produce a nice flame and then you sound like a choo choo train. Lol

Can't get enough of this , thanks for showing your tuning procedure as well , all such "save yer bacon" information , indisputable , in front of our eyes , thanks Richard......

[@joemomma12341]

Would love to see one of these non intercooled applocations where you compare "regular" non hydrous Ethanol, to a 5/10% water by volume Ethanol. I saw a ton of detonation protection and charge cooling on my test rig, but a dyno on a larger engine than my 30cc 2 stroke would be incredible! I would expect a good gain from the cooling on the non intercooled 3800

[@Erik-kp1ux]

Good job and thanks for the awesome vid! Finally someone taking interest in these engines who knows what they're talking about.

[@theoneoneguys]

Richard is the Man!! All the information for making more power and doing it safe!

[@Ilovegirlfights2]

I though for so many years that the gasoline and nitrous effected the rotors in the Eaton supercharger. I thought wrong awesome test Richard

[@CHINGY1993]

3800 stuff yehhhhhhh cant wait to see the w2a data. Keep up the great work richard

[@JBZ28LS7]

Love the charge air temp data. Can't wait for intercooler results and compare it to your water meth data.

[@NarxolepticCustoms]

me too!! It immediately made me go look up charge temp data for turbo applications as it would allow for more cooling effect i would think as you could put it further down the charge pipe.

[@seanbrosnan2074]

These motors are amazing. The 90 degree and 60 degree V6's are bulletproof. I wish there was more aftermarket for the 3100 and 3400 motors.

[@NarxolepticCustoms]

This is a great series!!

[@a2cryss]

I'm surprised (and glad) that fuel leak did not cause a fire. I love all of these non "LET'S TALK" videos.

[@dumbestoyster]

Holy Hell! How did that not catch fire?! I didn't actually thought it was just a water leak from the throttle body, then when I read it was a fuel leak, My ass instantly clenched...

[@rajcam80]

Good info! The great 3800 is a great platform!

[@Matp345]

Good God. That fuel leak could've ended very different. honestly would have thought the charge temperature would have dropped more.

[@TurboTPI]

I thought the same thing, figured the nitrous would have dramatically dropped IAT.

[@NarxolepticCustoms]

Me too!

[@Toys4Life]

Outstanding Video sir! Love it.

I have seen a box stock 454 sprayed to 850+HP, Nitrous can for sure add lots of power.

[@Grosflam]

I love my L67. Mine will have a TVS 1900, maybe nitrous.

[@ethanvink1710]

Is be interesting to see a comparison between this and a turbocharged setup with similar boost and AFR. It would show the parasitic losses of the supercharger, and would be very interesting.

[@richardholdener1727]

IT WON'T SHOW THE PARASITIC LOSES-MORE TO THE POWER DIFFERENCE THAN THAT

[@madmod]

Nitrous!!!💥

[@jonasbarnhart8697]

Would be interesting to see what the biggest cam you could get for this motor would do, how much would it lower boost and how much would power increase or is the supercharger itself a restriction

[@marcstlaurent3719]

Richard great info as always , on a turbo application say a BBC where you’re running out of turbos and turbines are smallish if you add an eighty shot does it raise exhaust pressure enough that it is pointless ?

[@richardholdener1727]

HAVE NOT TESTED A RESTRICTED APPLICATION LIKE THAT

[@Xav.]

You need to do a compound run with the eBay gt45 (intercooled) with the nitrous to get over 800hp

[@blown572hemi]

Can't seem to catch you live, so I'll post the idea here. The Chrysler 2.2 2.5 with a neon dohc head. 420a style ...I'm told will bolt on without much modification. Would love seeing the results of that

[@richardholdener1727]

STAYING 8V

[@dukeboreham2782]

Any chance we can get better mic quality, or the engine/exhaust volume turned up so we can actually hear the engine when you show the dyno runs ? Otherwise, if we can't hear the dyno runs, there's not much point showing them, unless something fails spectacularly.

Might be apples and oranges but I wanna do one of those carb mini blowers like a 144 or what ever and put it on a 4.2 ford I believe the carb on top the blower could cool it all the time

[@markmccarty9793]

Think I'll build a 393w. Got a 100 shot of gas, cause I got it! Maybe just stick a 357? Got all the parts?!! The turbo application?! It's going in the truck my father gave me. WTF, got everything for a 357w! Put the aluminum heads on it, 100 shot on it! It's likely to kill me Stock block hydraulic roller cam! 3.73 gears, push the button at the first gear shift?

[@gnls3827]

Would love to see what the difference would be on a simulated 1/4 mile pass. 12-13 degrees on a pull could end up being 60-70 degrees difference during a much longer (then dyno) track pass.

You should do this again but with meth. Theres a big debate whether or not meth will cool IATs when it's sprayed through the blower and possibly an intercooler underneath.

[@richardholdener1727]

E85 PLUS -129 DEGREES NITROUS-IT WON'T GET ANY COLDER THAN THAT-THERE IS NOT ENOUGH TO COOL THE CHARGE AIR

[@RandomTechWZ]

@@richardholdener1727 Oh I believe nitrous will cool the charge the best. I've just been curious as to if meth will make any difference (by itself). I had a Kenne Bell 2v Mustang on e85 that would heat soak like a bitch on hot summer days. I bought a meth kit to test out but never installed it.

[@No1414body]

How much boost before you knock the rods out of it because the stock oiling system sucks

[@NarxolepticCustoms]

this is an interesting question for sure! Plus, 565 is alot different running through a trans and rear axle so it'd be interesting to see these upgrades done on actual cars at the track or a closed course.

[@TurboTPI]

Ive ran one of these 3800's for years. Beat the living shit out of it with small blower pulleys, then swapped to turbo, never had a bottom end issue.

[@NarxolepticCustoms]

@@TurboTPI That's awesome!!! were yours in RWD configurations?? We are planning to build a jet boat car and using an SSEi as a engine/trans combo with the engine/trans in the rear. Is the trans beefy enough to handle abuse like that? We were thinking a turbo for appearance and a good torque converter to help with acceleration.

If a person has dynoed this many engines this many years beyond the age of enlightenment and this many years after me annoyingly pointing it out that TORQUE measurements are COMPLETELY irrelevant and they still insist on referring to the virtually irrelevant measurement they should really, seriously take a look deep inside their soul. Public debate MORE THAT WELCOME Richard. Virtually zero chance you'll accept.

[@richardholdener1727]

TORQUE IS IRRELEVANT?

[@zacharymorris9917]

@@richardholdener1727 absolutely. You can prove me wrong by posting the conversion formula from torque to any other metric of power. Hint: force is NOT power. The practical application of this distinction error is something I've seen you do in practically every single video. You'll say something like "gained 50 HP at 7000 but lost 50 ftlb at 3000" as if that is an equal trade. It simply is NOT. It is actually trading 50 HP at 7000 for 28 HP at 3000. The significance of this difference is even more pronounced on low RPM engines.
