BONE Stock 2000 Z28+Nitrous
Just picked up a BONE stock 2000 Z28. A4 car. I like the quiet while driving on the highway so I will probably only do the whisper lid, k&n filter, pullies, free ram air, and the other basic odds and ends.
Car has 193k on it now and looks and drives like its 60k. Guy I got it from was a regional manager of a resturant chain and put about 4-500 miles a week on it. He kept up with the maintnence, so I am not to worried about it blowing up on the spray. If it does a lq4 will take its place.
All that being said, what type of kit would be best to put on it and how big of a shot? Nozzle, wet, dry, plate kit? What all safety checks and balances to the system?
I want to be able to take advantage of riding and driving stock then running quick on the spray, turning it off and enjoying a nice peaceful ride home. The car will not get headers, cam, exhaust, heads, or anything else that takes away from the stock drivability.
What kind of results can I expect.
Thanks

A wet single nozzle will work perfect in this application. Simple to install, simple to tune.
I would go with this system:

Put in a set of br6ef plugs, 100 shot jetting, and then enjoy the ride.
On a small shot I would like to see a bottle heater:

and a window switch. This is a very easy to use system as well. I do offer a forum discount so please PM if you are interested or have any more questions.
Thanks,

I would go with a a plate kit 100 shot or a single nozzle. no big deal. Either NX or NitrousOutlet. Then go with a kit and a progressive controler or a window switch. run Br7 plugs for spray just to be safe.
Here is what you need to do. FIRST.with that many miles if its buring oil do not spray it. I would suggest you do a compression leak down test just to be sure the rings are still good.
2ND I would replace the fuel pump before you do anything upgrade the fuel pump. Then I would go through the car I would check the injectors out and get a good tune it. A car with that many miles is a ticking time bomb but if you have a motor to replace it have fun.

I would like to know also the gains.
100-150 shot. Stock motor besides Lid, and exhaust.
What would be expected? Good to go with a wet or dry shot? From what Ive heard, the back two cylinders seem to be starved of fuel because it doesnt reach back there if your running just a nozzle and not direct port.
1/4 Mile times on a stock LS1 A4 on the bottle?
