nitrous concern?

Badzki01 · February 5th, 2012, 08:19 PM

Im about to install nitrous next month. My concern is can i install nitrous even i have an exhaust leak? Im planning to inject 75 shot. Thanks..

kennyGT · February 5th, 2012, 08:36 PM

yes.What kinda leak you got? manifold ;x-pipe?

Badzki01 · February 5th, 2012, 08:42 PM

I think its between my x pipe and headers. I just dont know if i need a gasket between pipe and headers. So how is that a problem man?

If you have an exaust leak then your fuel is more then likely running rich or possible lean? who knows what your 02 sensors are doing, to make it simple fix your exaust leak before you add the juice to it.

Badzki01 · February 5th, 2012, 08:52 PM

Make sense to me. Really i thought its alright because i will only inject 75 shot and i dont need a dyno tune to correct the air and fuel? Thats the reason i thought its ok.

I have an exhaust leak at my midpipe to Long Tube and was spraying a 150 shot this past Sunday. You will be fine, and if its on your passenger side this is what you need

Its your engine, but there is no way in hell I would spray nitrous with my air fuel ratios out because of an exaust leak that is a recipe for disaster.

You are sent from above t.y.. I can honestly believe you bc you have a nitrous yourself. Thanks for that part man

BaznastyDave · February 5th, 2012, 09:05 PM

But the gasket is cheap enough to just fix it 1st and spray later. Bump it up to a 100 to 125 shot!

BaznastyDave · February 5th, 2012, 09:06 PM

I actually have a gasket id give ya but im going to sell it along with my MAC O/R H-Pipe.... Just need to put it in the FS section

No problem, I ran Nitrous on my Vert for over 2 years, and currently still running it on my 5.0.

I think i will stay 75 shot for now bc im a noob on nitrous. Once i get a little comfortable and i can dyno tune my car i will bump my shots. I hope its alot of fun

SSG Pate · February 5th, 2012, 09:13 PM

Nitrous is alot of fun when installed properly I ran 150 on my 00 vert, and now running 200 on my 5.0 going to bump it up soon and take it in for a tune for a 250 shot

A good plan, I started at an ~85ish shot, now I'm looking at 100+.
Its fun, but I don't use it too often. 1 bottle has lasted me about 3 months so far.
