NX kit by the way. just looking for a ball park figure so i can use the smallest size cell.

duh

I would go with NX's recommendation on pill size. Then you can tune from there if you have a wideband

sorry you might have misunderstood the question. i am looking for the amount of fuel that would be spent during a 1/4 mile run on that 300 shot. i am going to be using a stand alone fuel system but am very tight on space and want to use a qt size cell if possible.

duh

Ahhhh.....look into a 3 gall. cell. You won't burn that much but you can fill it with C16 and not worry about having to spend too much. Should be pretty easy to mount a 3 gal. They don't take up that much space. As for a 1 Qt. container, that should be more than enough to do 1 pass, but that'll get to be a P.I.T.A. filling it after every pass...that's just my opinion though.....

There's a formula to figure that out, but yeah i wouldn't chance it and go with the 3 gallon taht sits behind the passengers side headlight.

I'd have to look in my FAST XFI program to see how much fuel i'm adding for a 350hp shot.... Mine includes the engine consumption however so i'd just subtract that amount and give you a number....

If you really need to know I can call my tuner. I'd just err on the side of caution however and run a bigger cell than you need.. If you run the quart dry on a pass bye bye motor...

if its not to much trouble i would love to know. thanks

WOW... My tuner is a ******* rain man and ****..... Just got off the phone with him.... stay with me now cause here's what he said....

1. Fuel weighs 6.2 lbs per gallon

2. A 300 shot of nitrous oxide running FAT will burn roughly 150 lbs/hr (Brake specific fuel consumption is 0.5) Most cars will not run this fat but then you'll have more quantity than needed in your cell which is good.

2.1 It requires 1/2 lb of fuel to make 1 HP. So to make 300 hp you need 150lb/hr fuel (roughly)

3. 150 lbs/hr of fuel divided by 60 to get minutes comes out to 2.5 lbs/minute of fuel consumption

4. 2.5 lbs of fuel is roughly .4 of a gallon (just shy of a half gallon)

5. If you take .4 gallons and you divide it by 60 (to figure out how much you are burning per second) you will come up with .007 gallons per second of fuel consumed.

6. If you car runs 10.0 seconds in the 1/4 mile and you're spraying the whole run then you are going to burn (.007 x 10) = .07 gallons of fuel in one single pass..... So you are going to burn less than a tenth of a gallon during one single pass.

With all that said (whew that hurt my brain) he said that at a minimum cause of fuel sloshing and not wanting to cavitate your pump at all you should run a minimum of a 1 gallon cell and you could probably run it till the bottle was empty and you'd be fine.....

I had a migraine just listening to it......

My tuner did all that math in his head which was even funnier....
