Some food for thought and just my opinion...don't try to go too much faster w/ a heavy car. It gets way more expensive and less fun. It has it's fun times, like when everything goes good at the track, but I think I had more fun w/ the car running mid to low 10s. It was all motor then too, which was a lot less work and aggravation. No plans to push it too much further. Would like to do a 9.99 once, but the stars would have to align. it will absolutely not get cut up or lightened up any further! Just a little more nitrous........

n2omstr, I only recently started playing with nitrous and I'm taking baby steps with it.
I wanted to do it right and studied up on it thoroughly prior to pulling the trigger. I just recently installed a bottle heater and have the pressure switch adjusted to keep it exactly where I want it.

Not trying to hijack this thread but hearing about bottle pressures on NOS system a lot, how important is that?
Doesn't it need a certain amount of pressure to keep it in liquid form? Doesn't it turn into gas without that pressure?

I am not a nitrous expert by any means but more pressure obviously equals more nitrous. You want to be consistent because that is a variable in your tune up. I once broke the spring perches, driveshaft, and sprag because I tried to make a run with a hot bottle knowing it would make my junk faster because it was a little rich lol. I don't play with nitrous anymore haha.

I just recently installed a bottle heater and have the pressure switch adjusted to keep it exactly where I want it. Let it rip ..... lol Don’t know what heads you have . Just be careful with timing . Most BBM heads are now t nitrous friendly . And your cam probably not tailored for opening exh early to get the heat out . But what your using is not a lot . You doing Great , baby steps ..... just hurry up and get it in the 9’s . And I bet that won’t be enough for you .... lmao We all say X but always want more ! Happy ET hunting !

I'm using a Nitrous Express Mainline kit and the next step up, 250hp, is pretty much the limit of the tiny solenoids. As I recall the nitrous jet for that is like a 137, so no jet at all, just straight through. LOL! We built a custom china rail hold down for the solenoids and make it semi hidden and look a little cleaner.

Whatever you can do to feed the jet you will pick up . Even at the same jet . Also I noticed you have grounds separate , I would have both solenoid grounds together

I’d get rid of that plastic oil line for the pressure gauge. Yes, that was supposed to be temporary but here we are a few years later...
