Nitrous (To Do Or Not To Do?)

that is the question.

its all preferences, i would say get a wet nitrous kit, but the dry is fine too, window switch, and a purge kit. If you already have one do not go over a 75 without a tune, and thats about it. The install if easy and there no tricks to it.

do, its a kick in the pants

DO IT! It's the best bang for the buck by far.

I am as soon as the bolt ons are all finished up...no sense in spending thousands and still get beat on the track.

Works wonders for me on a stock mach with a mid pipe. 100rwhp shot should drop about a second off your 1/4 times. Get a pressure heater to help keep pressure in the kill zone.

how long will a a car with my mods, and stock internals stand up to a 75 shot of nitrous?

Doc8224 · December 19th, 2007, 01:09 AM

with the right plugs and maybe drop a degree of timming I don't beileve you will see a longevity problem. It will last as long with our without it as long as you don't spray too early or too late. and always run 91 or above.

workinprogress · December 19th, 2007, 01:10 AM

I always run 93, its tuned for it, and what can prevent iltimed sprays

workinprogress · December 19th, 2007, 01:11 AM

and what kind of 1/4 mile et drop can i expect?

Doc8224 · December 19th, 2007, 01:16 AM

Window switch will prevent spraying in any rpm but the ones you pick. I recommend the MSD Digital RPM Window switch. It is easy to setup and change on the fly and you don't have to buy those annoying pills and keep a zipper bag full of them just so you can dial in your N20 rpm.

If you find out what jets give you a 100rwhp shot, you should drop around a second give or take. It is VERY important that you understand your programmer and your tune before you use the nitrous. If you have a good 91 octane N/A tune in your car you are running way too much timming for spray. You need to be at about 1-2 degrees retarded off the factory setpoint. I can't stress that part enough. NOT 1-2 off your current tune, 1-2 off factory.

ok thanks, its a future mod but it will be done

Doc8224 · December 19th, 2007, 01:21 AM

Did you get a hadheld unit with your dyno tune? Like sct or diablo? If so just go back to the same place and have them make you a nitrous tune and keep it saved in the handheld for when you need it.

workinprogress · December 19th, 2007, 01:35 AM

will do

SWEET2KSTANG · December 19th, 2007, 06:43 AM

these cars can take a 100 w/o a tune, but is highly recommended to have one. 75 is nothing to worry about at all. i have ran literally hundreds of pounds of nitrous thru my car without problems. i spray 125, as long as all supporting mods are done you have nothing to worry about. and a side note, anything over 100 a better fuel pump will be needed.
