    Pwede but you might have to upgrade your clutch, assuming you have a Lancer EX M/T. If you have a CVT, you will need to limit the maximum power to around +40hp only.

    Sabi ni Mang Bok ng Speedlab that the stock clutch will start to slide at 170hp or 180hp level.

    I assume you would want to go for +60 to +70hp with nitrous.

    Also, he mentioned that the stock flywheel is not good (for whatever reason). He also suggests to upgrade the flywheel at the same time with the clutch.

    You'll need to upgrade the clutch because the stock clutch was designed only to handle so much power. If you add more engine power, the clutch will start to slip and eventually masisira.

    It's not NAWS. It's nitrous oxide.

    You will definitely have to upgrade the clutch. The flywheel issue might be because the naturally aspirated motor has a lighter flywheel (probably two-piece?) than the turbo motor.

    Personally, I'd rather go for a full intake-exhaust-chip install. Yeah, it's more expensive than a nitrous kit, and doesn't give as much power... but if you use the nitrous every day, you're eventually going to spend that much, anyway...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Also agree. Rather than go for a +70HP boost that last a few seconds, go get an intake-chip-header combo nalang for everyday power.

    Some people just have that need to feel the speed. Yo!

    Some prefer balance of power & handling.

    Others would want speed above all else.
