What you Spraying?
I don't see a graph. Can you upload it to a [different] online host (i.e., imageshack, photobucket, etc)?
How did you foul your spark plugs, btw? What happened?

I put the colder plugs in when I installed the nitrous, then ran them all year long on regular gas.
I should have put the OE Iridiums back in for the winter.
The additives they put in the gas for the winter here in Oregon can foul plugs, especially the colder ones.
I'm doing some more mods, then I'm getting the UTEC re tuned for the bigger shots and mods.

I don't try to spray on the street (but I have a couple times), just the strip.

btw -- don't use teflon guys...use lock-tite.
NX here...all I've ever used for 12 years.
back when I was only spraying nitrous...made 366/440 on 150 shot. same dyno all motor with i/h/e/tp/utec/spacer...I made 225/230. dyno reads low.
What irony is it that you see? Please, enlighten me. People here think NX is the ****, just because most vendors carry that brand. And since when was Dynotune a name-brand? They're still pretty small and relatively unknown, unlike NX, ZEX, and NOS.
As far as "when you install the solenoids from Dynotune" goes, I was saying that their specific solenoids leak, when others don't. I wasn't recommending Dynotune at all, in fact, I'd do the exact opposite. I guess your reading comprehension isn't too great, huh? "lol"
I tried loc-tite, but I was afraid I might seal up the solenoid or be too tight later when I uninstall. So, I scratched that - I know Brian did and didn't have trouble with it. Teflon tape does the job and if you're smart about it, it shouldn't get into the solenoids.

I never clowned you for using teflon...I was just mentioning what I use and I have seen teflon clog solenoids...so I'm just passing off my knowledge....been spraying for a long time, so I thought my point was valid.
if you can't find the irony in these two quotes, I don know what to tell you except to be a little more polite when someone is pointing something out and in no way cutting you down. I just thought the sh*t was funny. I did not insult your intelligence or call you stupid. I would expect more from a moderator.
"but that doesn't mean others suck" --- "make sure you apply copious amount of teflon tape or they'll leak."
Thanks for the enlightenment. And reading comprehension is still the same.
And no, your adviCe is always welcome.
As far as teflon thing goes, I see what you're talking about and we're both entitled to our opinions. I've heard teflon tape's adverse effects if it gets loose, but people, as long as they think before using it, shouldn't have trouble with it. Liquid teflon doesn't do anything and loc-tite scares me.
And just because Dynotune's solenoids suck (which both of the nitrous solenoids they sent leaked without "copious amount of teflon tape"), it doesn't mean the "others" (not limited to just Dynotune, which also isn't just limited to its solenoids, but rather variety of products) are of poorer quality.
And please, spare me the lecture on how the moderator should be ____ and shouldn't be ____. Mods are people as are regular members - feelings, opinions, etc exist within. We're here to make sure the site is properly maintained, not post fluffy and nice things only (so we can say some "unexpected" things from time to time). Sorry for the surprise attack.
Friends?

I sprayed a couple times on the street when I was testing the system.
A 75-shot will be noticeable, and you don't have to adjust timing for it.
Only thing you'll need to do is go with the 1-step colder plugs.

no hard feelings. you just read too much into my post...no hidden meaning...used NOS for a while, but liked NX stuff alot more when they first hit the market. Had a purge solenoid fail (NX) once and NX sent me a new one free....purge solenoid was 7 years old. lol. Plus I knew the guy who designed NX's stuff (mr. nitrous). He lived here in houston until he passed away a few years ago (RIP john). talk about a bada$$....that along with the outragous price he gave me on NX stuff, I was sold. Dunno anyone else besides myself that was buying NX EFI kits for $120
he always recommended loc-tite and I have used it ever since...straight from the engineer's mouf. lol.
happy spraying guys....
$120? Nice.BTW, what kind of loc-tite and how much did you apply? I'm guessing you applied away from the tip closer to the braided lines.

didn't know there were several different types of loc-tite? Looks just like teflon. I applied it over every thread and mashed it down real good toward the first few threads. worked like charm...never had a leak....ever.
