107989, Nitrous set up
Posted by bhofva, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
I just have one ? I'm thinking about buy a used Zex 100 shot nitrous kit. I was wondering how could I install a button underneath my cd player so I just press the button a the nitrous shoots thru my engine system without me have to hold the button down???

you do more than a 75 shot on a stock bottom end, and you can kiss it goodbye

You'd be foolish to do a push-button spray.

At the very least you'd want a window switch, this will ensure that you're only spraying in a preset RPM range. Personally I recommend this controller:

It's what I run on my SRT. It has one cubic buttfuck of features; (for lack of a better term.) And you simply can't beat the price.

You want to be at WOT when you spray or your motor will most likely bang from lack of proper fuel/air mixture. Wire a tap toggle on the throttle body at WoT and use your radio button to turn the system on. When you want to spray, hit your radio button and mash the peddle to WoT.

Once again Mikey is full of shit with icing on top.

140BHP + 100shot = 240bhp. Yet we argue 275bhp with turbo is fine....yeah ok, Mikey shut up.

The only way to do what your asking is to find a nitrous controller that has that function. Expect to pay 300+ though.

FWIW the nitrous jet sizes are only recommendations. I would start with the 50 or 75hp shot with the recommended jets and tune it to a wideband. Obviously if you rich or lean you will have to adjust the fuel pill. Very common practice on nitrous fogger systems. More than likely the recommended will be ok but I would actually tune it to make sure.

So your saying you actuate the Nitrous then go WOT.....amazing, you are the only person who actually recommends or does that.

The correct answer here is to have the engine at WOT and accellerating then engage the nitrous above 2000-2500 RPM.

Well if your going to try to flame someone or just be a douche i suggest you make sure you read what the person had wrote or know what your talking about. And if you think im wrong ive ran this set up for years, at any rpm your motor can handle, yea slammin it with the gas on and a 1500 whole shot BNM torque convert makes a nasty launch. WoT = Wide Open Throttle. On basic set ups like he has im sure, You have a button that turns on your nitrous solenoid's and a throttle trigger to active the solenoids (his radio button)so the gas comes at WOT, not what you assume is wot. You need to be at wot so you have the proper air/fuel ratio and the motor can breath when you spray. As for your second post, the kits have jets that go hand in hand, so why would someone use the NO2 jets for a say a 100 shot then use the gas jet for a 50 shot ? Hence your motor needs to be tuned before you even think about spraying, or when your spraying it just wont run rite. You just wont happen to burn rich running the extra gas threw the nitrous plates unless your ignition is not up to par when you spray or you have the wrong jets in which only a blind man would do. Having a MSD adjustable timing control unit is nice for retarding your timing about 5 degrees depending on what size shot your running and having a purge to bleed the line is nice too. Stock motors shouldnt go past 100 shot unless you like to replace motors or have built the motor to handle it. Hope this helps you out !

(I'm getting the popcorn ready) If you spray a motor too early it causes a LOT of stress on it and you will break it, if you spray nitrous when free revving it its bad for it as well, and you generally want to disable nitrous right before redline(fuel cut) because if you spray nitrous and have a fuel cut you become VERY lean and you will yet again break your car. You may be lucky a few times but it will catch up. Most general pill settings are on the rich side but every motor responds different so like Terry said, its best to get a wideband and tune your fuel pill.
