Default What do I need?

Hey guys,

I'm new to the entire nitrous and/or forced induction concept. However, I'm tired of throwing on a couple bolt ons and getting minor performance. So I'm interested in putting in a 150 shot of nitrous. Now my question is, since I don't know much about it and I'm probably going to have Cartek do the install, what components will I need to run a nitrous set up? I don't want bare minimum, but I want something that will safely allow me to handle a couple sprays per week.

My supporting mods are the Vararam, Bullets Exhaust, Tune, and 160stat. I plan on getting my manifold ported and Kooks headers before I put in the spray though.

Thanks,

Dan

Wet Nitrous Outlet Plate Kit.

Best ET / MPH so far 125 shot: 11.1 / 125 at 2800 feet

This is by no means the least expensive kit but I like the 6 fuel and 6 N20 ports for there atomization or better distribution of fuel and N20 IMO.

129 Window / WOT via tps switch

I also run 100 unleaded every time I spray, I run the tank 20 miles past the low fuel warning and add 5+ gallons of 100 octane unleaded.

IMO one should get a N20 tune and verify AFR at the very least.
I use HP tuners and a Inovative WB to monitor my AFR and Knock Retard.

Plate installed just like a TB spacer (Black lines are HSW).

Dave, Chis and Ray from Nitrous Outlet have been great.

Lots of good N20 info at LS1-LS2-LS6-LS7 PERFORMANCE Nitrous Oxide section
