Whats the AN size of most average nitrous lines? I need a longer nitrous line and i'm not sure if its 4AN or 6AN, i was thinking its 4AN but i'm not 100% sure.

 

Most are -4AN, I opted for a -6AN line on mine, but it was an upgrade.

 

What are some advantage's to upgrading to a -6AN? more flow i take it? Would it be beneficial for me to upgrade to that or just stick with the -4AN? I'm only running a 150 shot but will be spraying 200 in the near future.

 

i had -4an for my 150 shot, i would ask someone like HSW or Nitrous outlet and see what they say, most of the fitting will need to be swapped for -6an line which can get pricey as well.

 

Most standard systems are 4 an. Systems like directports usualy come with 6 an.

Here is a fast way to tell.

If you use a 9/16 wrench on the B-nut to disconnect from the bottle its 4 an. If you use an 11/16 its 6 an.

Thanks for the help guys, it was a noob question but i wanted to be a 100% sure because i need to order a line and some 90 degree fittings.

 

Everyone using nitrous has asked that same question at some point.. Thats how you learn.

 

I'm no where near experienced enough with N2O to answer that question properly. I'd ask Nitro Dave if it's needed to run a -6AN on the 200's, my guess is it isn't needed but perhaps would be suggested?

 

All of our brute force systems that are rated that high come with a -6 feed line. Is it 100% necessary? No. Is it suggested? Yes, highly.

Ok that being said, could my HSW wet plate kit handle a 175 or 200 shot if I decide to upgrade from the 150?

Don't wanna hijack but since it's related!

 

my guess is yes you should be good to 250 i believe, after thats its direct port.

 

Depends on which system it is. Shoot me a PM with your name and I'll look you up in the system.

When should you go from a 4an to 6an. More n20?

 

yes..

 

What if a guy is running a nano bottle on a Edlebrock Performer RPM plate kit. Would it change anything going from a -4 to a -6 main line? Is it going to change the output from the nano at all?

 

So i just got my 90 degree fittings in the mail. I went to put them on and they're to big! I don't know what size my line is if these are supposed to be -4AN and my line is supposed to be -4AN. I'm confused...i'll get some pics in a minute and hopefully some of you guys can help me...since i just spent $60 on fittings from summit...

 

here are some pics, i hope they help.





what size is the fitting coming off the nitrous plate? Because my lines screw onto that just fine...I needed the 90 fittings because my lines are a little to short and i didn't want a hard bend in the line to screw into the plate and a 90 would fix that.

 

Jet holder fittings are 3AN in size.

Nick

 

So then i need 3AN fittings? I need 2 90 degree fittings to come off the n20/fuel solenoids and 2 to come off the nitrous plate. Where i can i get 90 degree 3AN fittings with male and female ends?

 

Well first verify that those fittings are too big for the solenoid outputs before you return them...you might only need 2 3AN 90's.


Take your pick...
