Default Nitrous guys! Fuel question

I am currently running 150 shot on my car. Want to turn it up to a 200. My tuner said 150 is "safe" for pulling fuel from the rail. Guys running 175-200 shots. What are you doing for fuel delivery?

I was making 500 on motor and then added a 200 shot. I had to get a stand alone fuel system for it.

Can you give us some info on your combination? How much power are you making NA? Are you running the factory fuel system?

The kit is actually all from you guys for the most part. Ordered it from Houston. Nitrous outlet wet kit with a edelbrock progressive controller. Car is making 430ish (with timing pulled) on the motor and 591 on the bottle. I have fast 36lb injectors and a C6z fuel pump module.

I went with nitrous outlet. They make a kit that fits in front of the radiator and does not require relocating the battery. Its a little more expensive but by the time you figure in the cost of the battery relocation kit, it was about the same. Also since it goes up front, it was less work involved.

I will look into that! Thanks!

This is our C5 Dedicated fuel system. It will leave you plenty of room to grow later if you want to go over 200 plus the peace of mind knowing that you have rock solid fuel pressure to feed the nitrous system. Whether you run the dedicated or keep pulling from the rail, I would suggest a fuel pressure safety switch. That way if you have a fuel delivery problem, it will keep the system from firing. We have new switches that have proven themselves to be reliable as that was largely the issue with the fpss's(not just ours) before. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

You know it make sure you get the correct inlet fitting for your fuel solenoid. The dedicated fuels system comes with a 6an hose. Your plate kit likely has a 4an inlet fitting. Let me know if you have any other questions!

No problem. Their kit just seemed easier overall and money was similar between the different options is why I went with it.

I will be in touch! I think with the new diff/trans, different tire, and stepping up to a 200 shot I may have a chance to break into single digits... I will call you guys to get it all squared away!

yea price difference may be like 100 bucks ish.. Nitrous outlet is always my first go to cause they have taken great care of me with everything. So looks like I will most likely go that direction.

Thanks again!
