Default C5 FRC on 100 shot...
Got my new nitrous setup all installed and working. Here's some pics and a short vid of a 30-120 run on the juice.

Enjoy!

Not anything worth posting. The only time I've been to the track in this car, my tires we're bald and I ran 13.1 with a 2.4 60', spinning through first and second. The only 1/4 mile track around here is Ennis (Texas Motorplex) and they're only open when they feel like it, so I haven't been able to get back out. The tires on now are brand new BFG KDW's and you can here it spinning in the vid when the spray kicks in at about 50 MPH.

Can't wait to get to the track again, though!

No progressive. From my research, they're hard on the solenoids and not necessary at this small of a shot. If I was going to spray up to 200 HP, I would just go with a two-stage setup, especially since I have the two-stage switch from Nitrous Outlet.

Thanks.

I myself just received a plate kit from Nitro Dave's. I bought a progressive controller. However I'am starting out with about a 100 or so but I know I can use this as a conventional window switch. I was just curious, I however I'am just planing for the future.


How do you like the kit so far?

I actually had the plate kit even with the Zex unit, but it's been great! Pulls about the same with the new setup, but it's a lot cleaner install and I'd feel more comfortable about upping the spray to 125 or 150 with the lightning solenoids.
