If and this is a big if. If some one hits the lottery and has $300 to waste I'd like to see a Nitrous hit on a phantom.
Phantom 85 Nitrous.

I seriously doubt it would survive considering that the P-85 is already operating and pushing the extreme's of its design limits.
The extra heat output all by itself would destroy it almost immediately.

I think it would survive 1 pull if you put on an oversized carb and ran it extremely rich.
Nitro methane would be more fun.

Methonal would run cooler..
And eat the crank seals in .001 seconds

The biggest problem with high performance modifications to all these Chinese engines is the soft metal cranks.
The crank pin and wrist pin cannot stand the test of time.
I have eaten up a few on 47mm 70cc engines.
I’ve seen an engine with untrue crank snap the magnet right off from high rpm’s.
High torque..high rpm’s..high compression will take a Chinese crank out IF the engine is pushed hard continuously.

I think this is a "YOLO" Full send kind of question. OP didn't seem concerned about longevity lol

I tell you what, I win the lottery, everyone is getting a phantom! Except for Damien because he's already got two and only has one bike. Three would be silly!
