Default Dyno Tunes Nitrous Kits

I was just noticeing a few of the guys on here use some of their products. How is the quality of their stuff I just noticed that they have a TPS switch for nitrous activation. I have never used any of the products, mostly because I noticed how low the price always was and didnt know about the quality. But if I can get an endorsement from some of the guys here who use the stuff I will try some of it. I really like their wideband kit and that TPS switch. I would even try a kit on my car I dont have a purge yet. LOL


Well any info on their stuff would be great.


THANX

I went this route http://shop.smmenterprises.com/index...&ProdID=271403

Its produced by one of the original NOS owners new company Nitrous Supply. Before I bought it, the only place I could find info on this kit was in a Corvette forum. They seemed to like kit so I said what the hell.

Its a universal kit and worked fine for me. I'd add a TPS/RPM Window switch or utec to help make it safer. I believe the quality of solenoids is what gives you the price difference between kit because the rest of the parts of the systems are basic IMO.

You shouldn't have problems with any solenoid if you A) Inspect solenoid seals and plungers for damage every so often B) Make sure nitrous bottle pressure isn't too high C) Check wire connections and contaminates in lines every so often.

If you don't do this any solenoid can fail!

I ran a 12.5 with 125 shot on 875 bottle pressure so it was more like a 100 shot. A/F was a bit rich, which isn't bad but probably robs some HP. The jets they send you are for 43psi fuel pressure so you just call NS and tell them you want fuel jets for the different shots for around 50PSI fuel pressure

Plus, the bottle kicks ***!

That seems like a pretty reasonable kit. Not a bad start at all.

I had their TPS/Window switch, purge kit, and remote bottle opener...all of that worked great. customer service was also excellent! Never tried any of their nitrous/fuel solenoids though.

I tried searching this site for any mentioning of this product but couldn't find anything. It's supposed to be new technology and their solenoids will never wear and they provide lifetime warranty. It's alot more expensive too. Anyone here heard of them or tried their product(s)?

Interesting looking kit. It does come with a lot of billet parts which are nice but not really needed. It is a different looking kit with the braided lines and I havent seen solenoids look like that before. I say give it a try tell us what actually happens.

It looks like it has some nice things. The bracket for the bottle is definitely really nice, but with a price tag of $750, I wouldnt bother. A NX kit is tried and true, and probably the most used kit on this site by Nitrous Z's I would guess. If it were cheaper then a new NX kit, then I would say go for it. But in this case it just doesnt seem to make a lot of sense.

True...it's pricey, especially if you want the accessories like the heater, controller, etc... I just wanted to see if anyone here has used their kit.
