Terminator X swap for NOS control So Ive read the vast amount of information about the Holley Terminator X and found a lot of good information about turbo setups, boost control and such. However, I have not found any impression of the system as a NOS controller. Whats the consensus on using this feature? Any hang ups or tuning issues being found for this.
Its the last piece of the puzzle in my head before I swap over on my 99 TA. I want to know if its a good system as a NOS controller so I can adjust my build list prior to purchase. All opinions, impressions, and knowledge dumps welcome.

What did you think of the progressive tables that you can find on YouTube, or did you use them? Most are from members from this site.
I have done a few holley setups with wet, just do dry 99% of the time. Havent seen any YouTube videos on it, so couldnt say one way or the other. I have seen some great video's on holley but also some that were not so great so just kinda take what you see with an open mind. We use progressive on 99% of the nitrous we do due to the amount we are spraying, your progressive setting will vary from each setup. With any type of tuning, doesnt matter if its holley or with hpt tuners the more time you spend with it and the more you study the data the better you will get. I am holley certified, been tuning it since it came out, tuned hundreds of setups and learn stuff every day. Just remember the plugs and data dont lie, so many people ignore it and hurt the motor for no reason.

Need to get cracking on this soon, tracks open up starting this Sunday around here.
Your right about the piston. This will be my first NOS motor so Im really not trying to blow a motor on my first attempt.

What size injectors are you running for the dry shots. Im setting up for a wet shot up to 300hp. My N/A injectors arent going to cut it for sure so Im adding a set to my build list. Thinking about jumping up to a 42 or 48 lbs/ hr injectors but this may be a bit much.

There are many online calculators that will let you figure out injector size based on estimated HP. Also remember, the terminator X only supports high impedance injectors.

Yea the math behind it is rather simple but it doesnt address the additional required fuel for a dry shot. I would think additional fuel would be required via the fuel injectors in that scenario.
Not very familiar with a dry shot so Im generally interested.

Just use the anticipated HP number when the nitrous is active. A dry shot is superior because the fuel is delivered at the intake port. LS in takes were not designed to distribute fuel, only air. You'll get a much better AFR distribution between cylinders with a dry shot.

If you tell me what nitrous jet and how your spraying the nitrous I can give you a ball park how much fuel to add.
