Wow, sounds like a good price, the wet kit runs about $500 not encluding the tps. I had been thinking about running Nos on my Z, I have half the kit, but still need some other parts. Were in Redlands is there shop? I live up in Yucaipa.

damm that does sound a little high, I can buy that kit out here off the shelf for $350. So it sounds like they are trying to charge $850 for the install!!! LOL I wish i could charge $200 per hour!!

James,
It is right off the 10 freeway @ alabama, right behind the denny's next to the freeway.. hey since you are in the "Redlands area, do you know of any Z clubs around the IE?
Oh and the guy who I spoke to @ bottle fed racings' name is Eric, he is the owner, he told me if I was not sure about NOS to come in anytime and he would show me around the world of NOS, he also said he has been doing NOS for over 18 years!! so I would assume he knows what he is doing.

Hi, banshee350, Cool ill have to stop by one of these days. I dont know of any Z clubs around the IE, but that would be great to find one. I know Paul350Z is in riverside area and i think there are couple other too. I have part of a NX stuff, from there NX intertcooler spay system. Im just missing wet/fuel valves. I have the tank, most lines for the nos.
Its nice to know someone thats been doing Nos for that long. They have good advice.

Sorry for being such a newb at NOS discussions but what exactly is the WOT switch for. Is that like a safety switch to have NOS engaged and disengaged when racing?

it is for safety and its not as complicated as it sounds. WOT stands for wide open throttle. all it is, is a trigger switch that you install right behind your gas pedal. you set it up in a way where its activated only when your gas pedal is floored and just barely activates the switch. this way the nitrous system will only activate when your at full throttle which keeps your engine happy. its a cheap $5 part, but its a must.

Wow! sounds sweet. I think I'm leaning toward a NOS system soon. One question though. Is retarding the timing going to adversaly affect normal driving without the NOS activated? And if so, how badly?

you dont need to retard timing unless you'll be spraying more then a 125 shot. some have gone as high as a 150 shot without any ecu work, but i dont recommend it.

aite guys.... im lazy and didnt feel like making my own thread, if anyone knows jetting sizes for the NOS kits plz post them up. im pretty sure the guy is gonna need them anyways. right now im running 52 n and 32 f. im guessing im putting down around 320-330 and running alittle on the rich side. if anyone has a small chart or something it be nice. im thinking of bumping my shot up to around 57n and 34f. just 2 get a little more power down.

52 and 28 is 100 shot (80 to the wheels)

57 and 30 is 125 shot

62 and 32 is 150 shot

all of these landed me 12.1 to 1 AFR all the way across the board in my car


i put 340 whp with the 52 and 28 with 417 ft pds tq @3500

your car is probably running very rich with your jets....
