I'm building my own using a ShurFlo pump, pressure switch and a nitrous nozzle and jet I have lying around in the garage. Does anyone know if 100 psi through a nitrous jet will work?

I'm running a Be Cool system from Aquastealth!

Not a bad setup for a basic system! I'm using my windshield washer tank to hold the alcohol!

I got one for my 97 talon but haven't installed it yet.Dual stage one before the intercooler and one after.
I am not sure they are quite as good as the ones like sts or forget that other one that thinks uses electronic adjustabilty.

I have heard that its not a great idea to run them before an intercooler. I hear that the water can condence and pool in the intercooler. But hey thats just what I read. I plan on running two nozzles after the intercooler.

Also I am going to mount the tank in the spare tire well. Much cleaner under the hood and you can run a larger tank.

Hey Ryan,

I picked up a used SMC from turbobuick forums for $175 shipped. Just make sure, if you go with the SMC kit, you get the one with the square bottle. The round one is not compatible with meth. I liked it a lot and was able to run 13 psi with the same tune, on pump with your TTi kit.

Later,
Dave

Do you have a pic of your bottle? I want to make sure mine is the right one. Thanks.
