Hey,

My friend took this kit off his car and pretty much just gave it to me woud this be a safe kit to run on my C6 and was going to have it professionally installed. Although i know all nitrous kits can be unsafe if used improperly.

 

The fact that you are asking is the first step to a safe nitrous system.

Nitrous can be varied as far as power level so thats adjustable. Your engine can routinely handle 600rwhp and 550rwtq. Your engine doesnt care how power is made so nitrous doesnt automatically mean a bad thing.

The good things:
Its not very expensive up front for install.
It lowers intake air temps so heat isnt an issue.
Its quickly reversible to return to stock.
HP for HP nitrous is faster from way more TQ.

Nitrous can be deadly for the ones that dont respect some important facts:
It has to be installed and FULLY TUNED. You cant just install it with pills labeled 150hp fuel and nitrous, and expect it to have the right fueling and spark advance. When its professionally installed, the system is tuned with successive power levels checking the tune as you go.

To be safe you need:
Timing retard box-each 50HP is 1 degree less than N/A
Window switch-hit it under 3500...boom....hit the rev limiter, fuel cuts out, boom
Bottle heater for a/f stability because as pressure falls, it gets richer
Filter

Wet shots can have puddling which can cause a nitrous back fire. Find a tuner who can tune a dry shot. Wet is ok for small shot sizes.

Be mature about shot size. Too big a shot is just going to break tires loose for a spectacular burnout. Start at 50 which is 90rwtq.

Search in the FI section for the DRY vs WET thread by me or for the METHheadMonster thread. Tune for safety.

For later, nitrous is a chemical intercooler which blows away meth for this area of performance. When used with s/c or turbo's you make 300% more than its jetted for. A 75 shot can make 300rwtq! Nitrous used with S/C or turbos owns most FI drag class records. Most of these are dry shots.

Dry ramps up more predictably and doesnt require a fuel tap/solenoid. No fuel puddling so no backfires.

 

Thanks for the advice i have been doing alot more research and i didnt plan on pushing it past a 75 shot until i fully understand all the ramification's.
