Instead of a nozzle that is stuck in the intake tract, or direct port, it is a plate that is bolted between the tb and intake manifold that more evenly distributes nitrous than a nozzle.

Nitrous is deffintly the biggest bang for the buck when done properly. Yes TNT is out of buisness. You can find used systems for sale from time to time posted on the boards if you are mind set on there product line.

I would like to suggest looking at our Vehicle spicific plate systems. There is not another system on the market than can match the performance, flow comparison or the cleaness of the install.

Our plate system mounts a 3/4 thich plate between the throttle body and intake manifold. The system comes with custom solenoid mounts and is consist of pre fabricated hardlines. Since everything is designed specifically for your application you get a custom fitting system with out the extra cost of adding special fittings and hoses.

Good thing is our system comes with jets from 50 to 200 hp and in the event you want more power in the future our system can flow enough nitrous to support a 400 horse power gain. Not that you would ever use it for 400..

Ofcourse you will need some accessories to go with the system. I would be happy to spec you out a system designed to fit your needs and budget if you are interested in help.
Please shoot me a pm with your complete set up andf what your future goals are with the car.
Dave

A progressive controller pulses the solenoids over a certain period of time to ramp in the nitrous. Helps to keep traction when trying to launch the car out of the hole on the spray. It is hard on the solenoids though. You end up having to rebuild them every so often.

A lil trackbite mixed with denatured alcohol and a 10 second burnout has always helped me hook on a 175 shot on the street.

I'm an n2o noob myself so I wanted to be the safest possible. Plate kit and a stand alone, I know it's only a 150, but I wouldn't want to spray off the rail unless you have a fuel system for it.

Ive been around nitrous my whole life. My dad had it on his bike and now on the Camaro. My uncle runs it on his Mustang. Nitrous is the easiest to tune of all the power adders and also the quickest to **** some **** up.

A simple 50 shot can go horribly wrong. A 400 shot can be perfect with the headers lit all the way down the track. It all depends on how safe or how aggressive you play it. My old man just had to tear his motor down because his distributor lost signal and the timing changed. #6 was bouncing off the bottom of the head just missing the valves. $2500 later he was out of the machine shop and back rollin.

Cliff Notes: Only run nitrous if you are safe with the risks and trust your tuner 100%. If youre tuning it yourself, baby steps but I would NOT recommend it.
