Nitrous Injection

I confess to being confused how showing what has already been done, and setting reasonable expectation is 'hate'. I felt I was active in this thread until it jumped the shark. After that, not so much. I truly feel a 130 HP Prius engine should be attainable and sustainable. I have no hint how I could be helpful with a 234 HP Prius other than picking up the pieces that land in Mississippi and mailing them back to you. None the less, I wish you well in that endeavor, I just strongly doubt Toyota made the engine, transaxle, drive train, or braking system capable of surviving 2.5 times the stock power.

These threads will grow to enormous size if we cannot use acronyms after the first use of a term.

If I were forced to keep typing Motor/Generator each time, my posts would ramble on even more than they do. There may be other styles of Modding, but I would need to know how the car worked now, before I could hope to improve how it worked later.

 

I read all three parts of the super charger article. I think the important result was that even though getting the extra power to the wheels was not so successful, it worked very well in keeping the HV battery charged under extreme conditions like hill climbing.
