Yeah exactly! Your car is going to haul at the track. Probably crazy on the street with the torque too.

I was looking at direct port kits before for my street car. They are pricey but pretty cool setups. Just seems like the right way to do it if you're going big.

I am extremely happy with the numbers the car put down!! With how good the driveability is, I almost wish the cam had been bigger lol. Hopefully here soon I will have some track numbers with it!

Manuals are a lot of fun to drive

No I didn't

I ended up coming across an amazing deal on a used piece of equipment I am after and flew out to look at it.

I took the car out last weekend and ran into a PCV issue with it, and ended up tracing it back to the catch can. Somehow, with the catch can coming off and on a few times, I connected it backwards at one point ended up with a blown out valve cover gasket due to crankcase pressure.

I pulled the intake manifold off to clean everything up, replace the oil pressure sensor, and put a new valve cover gasket on it. Since I wasn't going to Houston for the weekend, I decided to leave the intake off.

I am ordering up pieces to plumb it for a direct port myself and sell off my NX 102 plate kit

Well that kinda sucks. I know you were looking forward to TX2K. Any other races coming up?

That's awesome for the direct port kit. What kit are you buying. I'm thinking I should just do the same thing for my street build. I talked to somebody at Nitrous Outlet and got a part number but it's at home. Looks like a nice setup. He said it isn't any harder than plumbing brake lines so I'd definitely attempt it myself. Let me know how it goes. I'll probably wait until you're done and see how it goes

Yes it did, but it's one of those decisions that made sense in the long run to go take care of business. I am going to hit some grudge nights around DFW, and am planning to go to LS Fest this year and run the car.

Right now I am working with NX to piece a kit together similar to this one. I know everything I will need, except which kind of nozzle to go with, and the jetting. My current solenoids should be able to handle that set-up, I hope.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/nitrous-o...port-pics.html

After speaking with Pat G about the long runner distribution issue of the FAST 102, and doing some research, a direct port is the way to go. I wouldn't take my plate kit past a 200 for fear of cylinders 1&2 not getting an even amount of spray/fuel. And if you already have a kit on the car, you can piece a direct port together yourself for just a tad bit more than a plate upgrade. I hear it takes a lot of patience to bend the lines though

I can't tell from the pic and didn't see it while skimming through here, but did you run a LS7 MAF? If so, what are you using for the coupler to TB? I grabbed one of those rubber ones from HD for now, but would like to get a nicer one at the right angle.

I just ordered a 4” hose with a 22* bend from Intake Hoses. I’m hoping this will work on mine.

Yes I did. I am using the same as bbond, a coupler from intake hoses and I trimmed it to fit.
