Default ON DEMAND - Two Stage Nitrous

I want to do an “on demand” two stage nitrous.

I’m getting the heads and cam done now, and will probably be looking to spray it after a couple of months. I want to hook up one nozzle jetted for 100 shot and another jetted for a 50 shot. I can run the the 50 shot solenoids off a different arming switch and only use it when absolutely necessary. :D

Has anyone tried this? Will this work? Will the distribution be ok? Am I better off with a TNT system (correctly jetted) that already uses two nozzles.

Thanks
Jim

You could use something like the NX Nitrous Maximizer and leave the 150 jets in there all the time. Then just setup different programs on the maximizer for 50, 75, 100....., 150 shots.

Scorp,
I didn't know the maximizer had different programs, I thought there was only one. I'm going to add that to my list of possibilities. How much does it cost?

I think it does. I have a printout of the instruction manual here somewhere, I could be wrong. It costs something high like $595 I think from most suppliers.

You will either have to use two nozzles and two sets of solenoids, or one two stage NX nozzle and two sets of solenoids. A two stage setup is not uncommon, but in essence you are running two nitrous kits.

I say forget the two stage. Too much to wire up and too many things could go wrong. Just install the maximizer it could do all that and more. If you want only 100 shot all the time you can leave in the jets for 150 shot and set the maximizer to only allow 100 shot. The maximizer is very versatile, you should definitely look into that.
