Default stick with the NX nozzle or get a Nitro Dave's plate

that is my question.

i am going for a dyno tune in a couple of weeks and want to get it tuned for 200+ shot. it is a 370 with H-beam rods, diamond pistons, diamond rings filed for a LOT of n2o, stock 03' 6.0L crank fully balanced, patriot stg. III heads, FMS 243/250 cam, th400 w/n2o converter so it will handle it.

do yall think i should sell the nozzle and get a plate from dave or just keep the single nozzle? i talked to dave but i am just having a hard time deciding. mostly i will just be spraying a 100-250, depending on who i am running.

I voted plate system. Much tricker looking. However, if your current kit can do 150/200+ then it's just up to you for looks sake, remember jetted for 200rwhp is 200rwhp. Maybe keep the nozzle kit and a plate kit and go dual stage?

Plate.



The benchflow vid of Daves Plate shows a wall of Nitrous when it flows, I am convinced its way better than a nozzle in a bellows or air duct.

Real men dont need a dual stage for a small 200 shot. We hit it out of the box.

Im partial to our plate but either will do just fine.

what he said, i was debating on getting a controller when it gets the 250+ shot though. i'm not sure how much the stock 10bolt will handle or the 26x11.5x15 et skreets will hook

I've been running a single fogger nozzle and decided to go with the plate after seeing some threads of head to head testing against the nozzle. (The plate won!!! ) It certainly looks tricker than a couple of lines "hanging out there".

yea, i talked to dave today...again and i think i'm just gonna keep the nozzle setup. i was wanting a p. controller but the car hooks pretty decent so i'm gonna keep the current n2o setup and spend that money in other places for now

Not trying to start anything, but we had a few threads on this type of thing. If your happy that's all that counts. Remember, on something like this, just up jet one kit to match the other, dosen't really matter what jet size in comparing kits, if you want 125rwhp out of any kit jet it for 125rwhp. I still vote the plate, though.

dude i might be wrong but i dont think you can spray a 200shot through a regular single nozzle you would have to do some SHO hoses or a dual nozzle. i personally love the plate kit from dave i have one on my car and i will be posting pics up of it soon. it looks really good

The plate will not only produce more power but atomize and mix better than the nozzle. All you have to do is watch Beers video....

That's debatable. Not only Dave's plate but the NOS, Nitrous Direct and BM?, plate kits have not shown to be a HP leader or atomization leader. Read the stickie on the Nozzle shoot out. It was proven that most all kits are about the same. Jet it for the HP you want on a dyno and bingo, two kits produce the same HP. On the nozzles, I like the dual nozzles for better distribution, and maybe atomization (over a single), though both points have not been proven. With that said, I still think the plate kits, and the MAF kits are going to be top sellers for the forseable future.

I can remember the old days when I harrased you and harrased you to use that bottle on that lil blue mustang you had waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back when and you never would, thats when I was just starting out as a nitrous junkie, then you get into bottle refills, and now look at ya, king of LS1 nitrous you see guys, Dave learned his earliest nitrous tech from watching me make all the mistakes sit back and watch crazy guy, and learn...Yep yep, I even blew my hood and intake apart right in front of Daves house doing about 100 mph I even was dumb enogh back then to tell him ahead of time what I was gonna do, and I stood by my word. Ahhhh the good ole days. Dave, you need to buy another stang, fun fun fun.
