Taking the plunge into the dark side...(N2O)
After a lot of consideration, weighing my options, and putting off other important things, I am going to pick up a wet nitrous system from Nitrous Outlet. The LT1 Plate System seems to fit my needs and wants perfect. I was on the fence with upgrading my 10 bolt to a 9" but I am going to wait until the winter (If the 10 bolt last) to take that leap. I plan on spraying a 150 shot, the goal is to hit low 11's and if things go right maybe a high 10. Realistic I don't know yet, but we'll see. I ordered a set of M/T ET street 275/55/15 to get some of the power to the ground. I'll keep this thread updated with my progress.

Gear lockout is a solid solution. We can also just soften it with a progressive. The gear lockout is a safer, but a slower bet. I can go over both a little more detailed when your ready.

I locked out first gear when I first start spraying, but you will lose a lot of ET doing that. I ended up delaying the spray by about 0.5 seconds, just to get the car rolling to lessen the stress on the rear end. Ended up dropping about 6 tenths in the 1/4 delaying it less of the line.

nothing as of now graham....the kit isn't even on the car yet. Was waiting on the LPE controller to come in to set everything up and start testing at the track. Now question is, say I don't spray on the launch, but in 2nd as soon as the car shifts, by manual activation. Is this ok to do or would you recommend doing it with a controller. Money is kinda tight but I would like to get the car down the track, but it can wait till I get the money to do it 100% right the first time.

had a question bout your system, sorry for hijacking the thread but I am new to this as well and its my first time taking the N20 plunge. Since your system helps with bottle pressure, a heater is not needed correct?

No heater needed. Check out our site. You can shoot me a pm with details on your setup and i can get you an estimate on what you would need.

Thanks Graham you are always helpful with this stuff. I have the WOT switch, just waiting on that LPE to come out and we will be set. I know I had the window switch on order but you guys were out of stock, going to need one of those as well as some plugs. You have a plug recommendation for a 150 shot on 93 octane off the rail? All I have fuel wise is racetronix255lph pump and hotwire kit. Stock injectors.
