Nitrous on Mazdaspeed

Wasn't sure about posting in engine and performance or forced induction. The 03.5 mazdaspeed currently has 3" downpipe & exhaust, hiboost front mount, injen intake, jet ecu and obd port reflashed. I am curious if throwing a 30-50 shot of nitrous at this would hurt anything. I know these cars are known for running pig rich at WOT so i can't see it being a problem, i am curious however if anyone is doing it while boosting 9-10 psi. Any comments or suggestions would be great.

BOOM ,if you add N2O that what you will get
 
Wait! what is a Jet OBD reflash?
Is that like a Jet-chip for mostly domestics? Didn't know it works on the protege.....
please elaborate...
 
9-10psi is pushing it... adding N20 is just going to make things blow up faster..
Let's not make this another zoom-zoom-boom thread.

(got any pics of your gt spec stuff?)

I think he has an ebay resistor "chip"
 
A NOS would just add instantaneous stress on an already stressed engine, it might be too much, build the engine first.... make those pogo-sticks inside the FS-DE a little stronger.

Please elaborate on your ECU setup, I am also interested in this 'Jet' that you mention. Sounds like your modding is going in the right direction, you have all the good bolt-ons.... the next mod you should be looking into would be forged internals.... if you don't really want to go that route, then don't do too much more to the engine, and def. don't boost any more than you are.
Post pics of your car in the Photo/Video section, I am always looking for the new member's rides.

Oh, and welcome

Nitrous is a bad idea on the stock motor, even NA Proteges are blowing up on spray because of the stress it adds, not the power increase.
 
Before I built my engine over I was spraying 125 on stock internals but I left parts on the track at moroso but it actualy lasted 6 months before it happened would not recomend this .

Thats a hell of a sentence.
 
The Jet chip invovled sending the ecu to them and having them program it for the specific mods being done to the vehicle, it was mazdaspeed specific and a half hour phone conversation was had with a tech before they set it up, seems to work great. As far as the n20 goes thats kinda what i figured, have seen plenty of people pop their motors around 12 lbs but handt heard anything about people using juice, better safe than sorry, just throwin it out there.
 
^^^also interested in this. i've been wondering why no one has ever said anything about "re-chipping" their ecu as many honda kids do. and yes i'm aware this wasn't a "re-chip"...keep your flames to yourself
 
N2O on a stock motor is insane. I would love to see what a 50 shot on top of a GT28rs running 15psi (cools the charge and adds power) with a properly tune on the MPI and a MAM shortblock would do:)
