Hmmm, trying to come up with the sequence of (mechanical) events.

The neuological events to decide to add and use the nitrous = no brainer.

I'd like a little more background. Where did you find that?

That looks more like compressor housing from burned-out car. Nitro might damage turbo mechanically but won't melt everything like on pic.

With other words, I suspect pic is bogus, probably just a piece taken off burned-out car.

I was thinking the same, but I wanted to hear the story first.
