Oh My Dear Lord!!!!!! OK well I put a nitrous kit on my car not to long ago and frankly wasn't very impressed. Yea, it added power but nothing like the hype people made it up to be. Well I noticed that in the higher RPM's it was cutting out. I only ran a 13.8 with shitty traction on a 100 shot. I was very disappointed. Well some people suggested that it might be my fuel pump and that my fuel pressure safety switch might be cutting off the system. Well I went ahead and replaced the stock pump with a 255 LPH High Pressure Walbro pump. HOLY ****!!!! Just running it without nitrous I noticed a huge difference. I punch it and at around 4500 it breaks the tires loose. Just for the hell of it I took it out over my lunch break at stuck the juice to it. It still has the 100 shot in it and it feels like a completely different car. I mean it pulls soooo hard. I can't wait until I switch out the jets tonight for the 150shot. LOL

Yup, without fuel nitrous does nothing but hurt parts, there are lots of people out there that dont understand that your power comes from fuel, Nitrous just gives you the ability to burn more of it, congrats on the car, have fun with it
Hehe. I am happy to hear you found the problem. I hope it ET's well for you tonight as well.

Oh yeah if you are only running a 100 wet shot right now, a 150 shot feels like it hits twice as hard as a 100 shot.
