Default sprayed a 100 shot today..addiction getting worse

hey whats up everybody..well i just thought i would tell you guys that i put in the 100 jets today and sprayed it..and damn i'm more addicted now than ever..the 100 shot hits wayyy harder than the 75 shot..i wasnt expecting to feel that much of difference but damn! i know to most of you guys a 100 shot is nothing at all, but to a nitrous newbie like myself it was pretty fun..i keep telling myself that the 100 is as much as i want to go, but i can already feel the itch to hit it with the 150 shot and call it day. My air fuel would start in the high 11's and then creep up to roughly 12.3ish..do you guys think i should put a bigger fuel jet in it? i only sprayed it like 2 times for about 7 or 8 seconds and it was hard to watch my wideband and the road at the same time..so let me know what you guys think! thanks guys

Wait until you put the 150 shot in...its a vicious cycle and you're always going to want more.

What is your fuel system comprised of? Do you know if the pressure holds true throughout the run?

Hey man thanks for the response...im running a racetronix kit with the hotwire harness..i just changed the fuel filter about 500 miles ago..still running stock fuel lines, rails, and injectors...i dont know if the pressure holds steady thru out the run cuz i dont have a fuel pressure gauge..the 75 shot would stay in the low to mid 11's thru out the entire run everytime..this is a single nozzle kit as well if that makes any difference. thanks again

I know its going to sound stupid, but hook a gauge up to the rails next time you spray...I am wondering if the regulator is bleeding pressure off.

I started off with a 100 shot also and said I would never go higher. Now I have 2 kits with 300 total.

yeah dude.. you will keep going up..
I also started with 75shot.... then we drove it back to my house and stuck the 100 shot in it right off bat..... I am now spraying the 150 with a 175 not too far behind.

I am about to start setting up a 2nd stage so I can get a nice 250ish..... not for sure on what I am going to do, but I know the 2nd stage will be in....

but have fun and be careful

Congrats on bumping up to the 100 shot! Nitrous truly become an obsession -- once you're hooked, you'll always want more! It's so tough to keep stay disciplined when you can always get away with 25 more HP! HAHA!

Tons of people around here are spraying high milaged LS1's. As long as the car has been maintained well you shouldnt have a problem

I started on 100 just to "test" the system I said...
As soon as I found a car that could keep up on the 100 I put the 150 jets in LOL

I just bought a kit that ranges from a 75 to 125 but haven't even gotten it installed yet. Of course I plan on starting out at 75 to see how she'll do, but if I know me then I know I will be trying to spray more and more!

I am in the same boat at this very moment...just finished hooking up the wires to the relay and switches....bottled is filled.....75 jets are in....only thing keeping me from spraying tonight is my plugs. I have not changed to the 6's yet but tomorrow its ON! I am going to shoot a 75 for a little while to see how the motor handles it, then 100 it is until I can get a timing controller. Then I guess its that 150 jump. The HECK with 125! Heck I am already addicted....I can already see this is going to be a little TOO much fun

Ah yes the days of the 100 shot! It was soooo fun. As soon as the bottom end is together I start my ascend all over again! Nitrous is like CRACK! LMAO!
