Default Just squeezed 150shot on my C5 Coupe!!!!!

hey guys i just had the chance to hit the 150 shot after a day at the local dyno. WOW its an amazing feeling. and thats just with a single fogger. i might want to upgrade to a direct port. well thats after i buy a new clutch! ha ha

I just want to thank all guys on here. everyone helped me, when i needed answers to dumb questions.


Here are the numbers.

351 hp with 361 lbs tq no nitrous
462 hp with 502 lbs tq 150 nitrous

That's awesome dude. I haven't had mine on the dyno yet. I'm 323/327 N/A and running a 125 shot with an A4. Best time pre-nitrous run was 13.1. On the spray I hit a best of 12.5 at 116mph.

Real kick in the seat.

Not bad
What kit do you have? Some are rated at the flywheel and some at the wheels (supposedly)
I had a NX kit with single nozzle that I got around 130+ at the wheels with the 150 jets, then installed my plate and got 149

Make sure you're running all the saftey pieces and just don't get too greedy and you'll have a blast

I ran the plate and liked it, because it atomizes the fuel better.
The direct port is best/safest, (at the same power level) because it ASSURES you get equal distribution to each cylinder. The problem is, it is really easy to get carried away with the direct port, because you somtimes CAN run a little more hp. I ran one on my C3 with a forged big block, and went to 250 hp with no issues.
From a cost standpoint, the direct port is usually pretty expensive, making N2O a little less of a bargain, since you are still limited to the amount you can run because of the stock bottom end.
A good kit with a plate (I have one for sale by the way ) that has been tuned to max AFR/power on a dyno is probably the best way to go until you go forged.

Not bad numbers for a 150 kit. And your damn right, it is a kick in the ***, love the feeling when the spray kicks in.
Just running a ZEX 125 wet kit and got about the same numbers as others, 12.4 in the quarter. Did drill out the 75 jets and ran them once at a 200 shot, made it to just above 12.00. But on a stock bottom end its just asking for trouble doing it over and over again so I backed down to the 125.
Yes, run all the saftey stuff, bottle heater, window switch, Full throttle only spray! Only run my spray between 3000 and 6000 rpm.
-- Blow Torch is right, do not get to greedy! It will cost ya.

Go fast.
Chris

I'm a stock block (with cam only) and all the bolt-ons. To date with a NOS plate kit and 150 jets we have run 10.49 at 132+mph.
Planning (when cash allows) to swap the current system to the new NANO system and expect 9's with no problem.

I would retune it just to be safe, a good tune is cheaper than the best build, as far as insurance goes.
I bet you could easly do 200 all day with no worries. But that is for the experts, im just running stock bottom end thus far.
