When any RX8 goes to the drag racing track, they put out cones and do a slalom.
Sooo, quarter mile time is 43.8 seconds... with nitrous.

So just for the fun of it, I used the 'search' function on this forum.
Searching titles only, I tried 'nitrous' as the search word.
Guess what I came up with? A TON of information about your question

https://www.rx8club.com/search.php?searchid=4613744

Now for the info that the search function can not help you with
Easy E1, BHR, and Charles Hill are kinda the gurus. So read their threads first.

welcome to the club...start by telling us what kind of rx8 you have and what country/state you are from...don't mind the comments it sort of traditional and be prepared to shake leghumpers off...
