$3000 nitrous . What all do you have? I think you should buy my CAT Cams for this killer engine .

well i include the MSD in there because i wouldnt have it if i wasnt using nitrous.

kit 650$
heater 150$
purge 150$
another bottle 150$
press. guages (2) 100$
MSD 450$
single to dual stage conversion (not ordered yet) 300$
shower head distribution blocks (direct port) 120$
4 extra shark nozzles 225$
MSD digital rpm window switch 80$

maybe not quite 3000 /shrug


somewhere around 2500 said and done. right now im waiting on the distribution blocks, conversion, window switch, and extra nozzles. im probably not going dual stage and just pay the 300 for a progressive rate controller and run a 150 shot on it, but i need to get the race lines so they will flow enough. we'll see what happens. it'll probably be a 75 that progresses to 150 starting at 3500 and ending at 7400

Sounds like a killer set up . I look forward to seeing this setup in person.

It's all a waste without a progressive controller

if i dont convert to dual stage i'm going to run a progressive 150 shot. right now that is making more sense to me. and its alot less nozzles than a dual stage direct port setup!

whoopity friggin doo! NX is simply labeling larger jets with smaller numbers in order to make this happen. a shot of nitrous netting 100rwhp will basically be the same volume amongst all brands. you're simply a victim of NX's marketing.

Simple - NX doesn't give as much of a saftey barrier for the A/F ratio to be a bit rich. You can lean out a NOS kit and get more power out of it without burning anything, but you increase the chances of running into a problem. NOS deliberately runs the fueling a little rich to prevent detonation. NX runs LEANER, closer to the edge of detonation. More power? YES. Feel safer? NO. (At least I don't) I've sprayed just about everything I own(about 14 cars depending on the month ) The simplest and IMO Safest are the ZEX and the VENOM kits - they shut off if the fuel pressure drops out - NX and NOS base kits do not come with any sort of fuel drop off protection. You can destroy ANY motor by not using nitrous CORRECTLY. Most casualties of spray I have seen are from people running too long on the bottle, running garbage for fuel or using it on a engine that was not mechanically healthy.
Just one thing Tricker - how is your setup gonna add 200 pounds? A full 10 pound bottle averages at 24-25 pounds EACH - FULL. A stack of solenoids,bottle brackets and hoses still can't weigh in more than 30 pounds.I count 80 pounds. Even with your ignition boxes - Maybe 90 pounds.

Totally not true.
NX does run a bit richer, about the same as NOS I'd imagine, just to protect the engine.

That is exactly what i was going to say. After i got my wideband i put it on the car, and went for a ride with the 100 shot. The second the nitrous hit in the AFR went down to 10:1 ish. And the higher the rpm's got the richer it got. Up above 6,000rpm's the AFR was 8.5:1 with the NX 100 shot jets in. Is 8.5:1 rich enough for ya evocontour? lol

I mean seriously...8.5:1...now wonder my motor has lasted so long with me spraying the guts outa it!
