How practical would a survival vehicle like the V8 Interceptor be? Aside from looking cool, would it actually perform well in SHTF or realistically would it be a bad choice?

In SHTF you can count on main roads being blocked/jammed. In most places you're gonna need a well-equipped 4x4.

You've got to keep in mind that the interceptor was perfect in the maf max shtf
>motorcycle gangs raid slow vehicles
>middle of Australia, road travel is necessary
>max already has a supercharged cop car
I would think that in most other shtf situations, fuel economy and the ability to get over a downed power line or tree would be important. Unless you are Lord humungus, being on the road will a last resort and you'll want to stay moving.
I think that a Subaru outback with a winch, good tires, steel plates in the doors and as much guzzoline as you can carry is your best bet

>subaru outback

Until, you know, you need ground clearance
Or your tires wear out
Or your symmetrical all wheel drive shits out
Or any other of the myriad of maintenance pain the asses happens

>>30039324
No you dont. Nitrous cools and increases the volumetric density of air. You can run it in your shit box if you want. The problem is your regular ecu doesnt know what to do with the extra air and cant put the necessary fuel through stock injectors to balance it out. You end up leaning the air fuel mix and blowing up your engine.

>>30039363
Ultra-dumbass question: Could one use nitrous AND a supercharger? Because I keep on hearing the forced-induction guys talk about the need to cool the air down as much as possible.

>>30039373
Yes. You still need injectors or a carburetor that can handle the necessary amount of fuel for the proper air to fuel ratio.

>>30039373
Compressing air heats it up and then it isnt as dense so there isnt a lot of gain. Turbos and some superchargers have intercoolers to cool the air back down so it gets dense again. Nitrous does the same thing without the need for an intercooler.

>>30039419
>Compressing air heats it up and then it isnt as dense so there isnt a lot of gain

Except there is as shown by the very widespread use of turbos, noob

Yeah, an air-to-air intercooler is certainly an upgrade, but saying there's little advantage to using a turbo without one is ignorant as fuck

>>30039373
Absolutely.

Nitrous is really niche and kind of a stupid thing to do to most engines, though. You're effectively doing the same thing as massively increasing the compression of your motor, and that can lead to a giant grenade under the hood if it's not built for it. I'd stick to traditional FI and just up boost (pulley swap if S/C) if you want to live dangerously. Nitrous is best left to competition drag cars.

>Nitrous is best left to competition drag cars.
The benefit of nitrous is that most cars can safely run a 100 shot (the numbers are horsepower boost) totally stock and it's super super easy to install, whereas a turbo system is total fucking aids to do without a decent budget.
Supercharging is somewhere in the middle but you still have to fuck with fuelling and such.

Whereas with nitrous you run your nos line, your fuel line, and get the right jets and you're good to go.

sprays are commonly much more popular in US tuned car scene(more specifically the big block crowd with big tire)..And the best example of this the Street Outlaw show on Discovery Channel...
