nice

what kind of pressure switch are you using, ratings on/off

speedshop.org one? i know the nx is set too low, and too broad of a range, on/off.

Very nice setup, as usual

Slow,

The pressure switch is from speed shop.org. It has a nice adjustment feature from approx. 600psi to 1500psi. It is quite sensitive and works very well. There is virtually no window. It cycles within about 10psi of the set pressure.

Nice setup! Where did you get the solenoid for the nitrogen from and if you don't mind sharing, how much did it set you back?

Thanks!

The noid in the picture is not the one installed right now. That one didnt work..it would overheat. I eneded up getting that Biondi C02 3000 psi noid thats in Summit for $129. The nitrogen bottle was free from my work. I have a few. All the lines were free from my work The pressure switch from Speedshop.org was like $49 and works GREAT!

Wow !! Thats a sweet air intake set-up. You should consider marketing that ! I bet the aliminum 3.5 manderal bend pipe was pricey.

Is it true that the nitrogen push setups are illegal at NHRA Tracks?

Big Mike. I have never looked in NHRA or IHRA...But I knowm NMRA sais not allowed. I think NHRA is the same.
I made this for convienence on the street mostly. I once raced an 800 rwhp Supra three times in 10 minutes from a roll. If I would have had a bottle heater I would have been done after the first race.

IF you had to race in an NHRA event...you could just arm the system...let the pressure stabilize and then remove the N2 bottle. I used to do this from time to time. It works well as far as getting the exact bottle pressure before a run...but of course doesnt maintain it through the run.

Yeah...fairly pricey..yes. Brandon has said he would make this on request. But It would have to be worth his time.

$650 to dupe this setup. Thats with 2 K&N filters, the polished stainless radiator support, connectors and clamps, and the 3.5 inch tubing all fabbed up.

Maybe $575 if you want a single filter setup.
Keep in mind you can have NO bumper support for this setup and the crossmember on the intake brace needs to be notched about an inch. You also need to drill twp holes for the intake support mounts.
