Well after careful consideration and telling myself no I have finally done it!!

Had Nitrous kit fitted and must say I am well impressed.. At the moment only running 25 Break jets but what a difference!!

The best part is the intake temp what a difference can be seen its like running your car on a cold day all the time when gas comes in...

Only prob I am faced with now is I have no Gas left as all used and have to wait until Tuesday for a refill.

So all that is left now is to put it too the test!!

Any of you guys tell me how to post pics and I will add pics asap

 

Hi, you need to upload them to a web site then link to the picture. The one I use is This one. Fairly self expalnatory.

 

just make sure they're under 100k in size

 

cool,have been toying with the idea also,who did you use for the kit and did you fit it or them.
gene

 

Nitrous Express is the kit fitted and a local company fitted the kit....
It didnt go straight to plan like as they had to make some adjustments to the way the Maf Sensor works!!
Was initially causing some boosting probs!

 

so how much did it cost??

 

Total cost was £1300...

That was with Nitrous Gauge and a few hidden extras!!!

 

and a guess at the 1/4 mile improvement?

 

Well not sure

But if I was to say it takes half the time to rattle through the gear box what do you think this would mean in secs??

 

a sec?

 

Is it a wet or dry system and do the jet(s) go into the intake manifold, air box or the hose prior to the throttle body?

 

wet system moley,
jets combine fuel and N2o before throttle body or in Plenum chamber after

 

Yep its a wet system...

Fitted slightly different than normal... It is tapped into the Intercooler... Apparently works slightly better...

It goes fine so thats ok with me!!!

 

I have got a few pics to add but cant seem to get uploader to accept them?

Keeps coming up with error messages what am I doing wrong??!!

 

File too big ? 100k max on turbosport

 

How can I reduce pic size???

 

You can change the pic size with picture software like Adobe Photoshop or the prg that comes with your scanner or something. Open the pic, click edit and resize to 50% all round.

 

Cheers for that


I have tried resizeing but still getting error??

Can anyone help?

 

pics of bits may help. then you can explain how you did it diferent to me




Obviously none of this is in a scoob

you could mail me your pics and i'll post em up for you, have nowt else to do

Andy

 

Judging off pics it is exactly the same kind of setup just the shark nozzle is actually tapped into the intercooler instead of pipe work where it normally goes

Apparently works slightly better this way???

Which software are you using to post pics would love to know how to do it for future ref

just make sure the pics are less than 100k and try to reduce pics by 50% in size(height and width) so they fit in the BBs window.

The pug that that kit was on was naturally aspirated so no intercooler to fit to
I realised it was the same kit when you mentioned the makers name

EDIT : too many oo's in to

I think i found your problem, You have to post them in *.JPG format not *.BMP
looks like you had to compress them a hell of a lot to send them to me in BMP format but here goes, they may be tiny !!

 

I have also considered Nitrous, mainly as an anti lag system, as opposed to gaining more bhp.

Questions Please -

What size bottle do you use?
How is your Nitrous Switched? I.E, via a throttle pressure switch, dashboard switch or boost sensor?
How many miles roughly do you reckon you get on a tank of nitrous?
Do you have any figures for losses in temperature?

Thanks

 

.
I think you got the order mixed up there mate,
how many tanks to the mile
seriously tho,
The gas bottle is filled according to the weight of the gas
in WRXM and my case it's a 10lb fill costing 50squid.
activation is by two switches that both have to connect to make it work. One is on the dashboard somewhere which is the arming or priming switch and one micro switch is attached to the throttle pedal and only activates at WOT (wide open throttle).

Andy

 

Yeah thats about it mate


Arming switch to prime system is on dash and at the moment gas only comes in at wide open throttle..
Takes a bit of getting used to in order to know how to drive it like!!
Its a bit like second turbo kicking in...
Refill is £40 and 10ib bottle usually gives maybe 150 to 200 hits varies really...

I am looking to get bottle warmer to free the last bits of gas up and also help pressurize bottle...

Had a few probs with setting up... When gas was kicking in boost was rising and hitting boost limiter so had to install boost raiser kit.... Seems to work fine now... Will see if I can get some info together on temp drops

Kkk

 

Just don't be tempted to fit the 150 BHP jets.
muchos fun and big grins all round........for a week
til the pistons melted

Andy

 

Well mate


Have tried the 50 bhp in and it is a totally different ball game!!!
Gonna stick with 25bhp at the mine untill I get some strengthening work done at end of the year!!!

Thinking on boreing engine out aswell!!

However am embarking on latest project at the min.... Thinking of Nitrousing me motorbike!!!

Its addictive stuff!!
