First and foremost, do you have a fuel pump in your car? A hotwire kit for the pump?

Your cam will work fine for the 100 shot. I have sprayed 150 hits on 135,000 mile bottom halfs with no issues and they never did die. You won't have a problem with the 100 shot on engine longevity as long as you have good fuel and pull the correct timing.

You want to pull 4 degrees on the 100 shot not 2 (rule of thumb:2 degress for every 50 shot.)

The install is easy and straight forward. It will come with directions.

Get with Nitro Outlet, HSW or NX they are all our sponsors here at ls1tech. They will get you set up with a good plate kit.

I know vette fuel systems are a little different for the f-body platform so I would contact Nasty Performance about a pump and hotwire kit. They are also a sponsor. Most of our other vendors should be able to help for the fuel system. TSP, Speed inc, Vengeance Racing are to just name a few.

c5z, A wet plate would be my suggestion. We have used dozens of the Nitrous Outlet Plate kits with EXCELLENT results.

Give us a call. We would be more than happy to put together a complete kit together that suits your specific needs.

If you are putting a pump in the tank and are only going to shoot around 100-150 you won't need a standalone. Just pull it off the rail for the fuel side.

Just curious?!?!..... whats your desire for a plate specifically?

Just curious because if you later on decided to go with a FAST or other aftermarket intake then it may be useless... Just a heads up to look into the future!!

We can get you set up on a system regardless!!

As mentioned above, for 100 shot of nitrous I would pull fuel from the rail and not bother with a stand alone fuel system. A Racetronix Fuel Pump with voltage boosting harness would be my first choice for your application.

Give us a call when you are ready.

dammit i did wanna upgrade to a fast 102mm intake manifold but not now ... so if i cant use it with the fast intake then whats my option with a fast intake upgrade in the future a safe system....? and why does the plate system not work with the fast intake..?

NitrousExpress

well right now a plate for the FAST is in development, however we dont know any timeframe as of now...

If you really want a plate kit I would go with a single nozzle system for your car now, then when the plate comes out just add it on it!
That will get you spraying now and will be compatible for an upgrade.

If you need pricing or any other info let me know and Ill be happy to help you out!!

The FAST 102 intake is a very tight fit in the C5.

Here is a Nitrous Outlet 102 Plate...waiting on hardlines...





As for upgrading the intake later, a plate system (3 Bolt LS1/6 style) is a different Throttle Body bolt pattern than the 90, 92, 102 FAST (4 bolt LS2 style).

c5z16z

ok well the pic below shows a claimed FAST 102 and a plate from nitrous outlet
...... and if one does not exist is there a big science to making a plate (machining one) as i am a CNC programer for a machine shop.... so i can probly custom make my own... i have several desighn softwares at work and tooling to make it if not i can order ....?

c5z16z

and also the desire for the plate kit and such a small shot is that i want a really safe system and thats what was recomended by several people.....

You can easily purchase a plate system for what intake you have now. And them sell the plate and purchase the new size plate to match your intake upgrade later. Great thing about our products is that you will not have an issue reselling anything.

Our vehicle specific Plate systems are hard to beat. They can deliver up to 400hp and they provide a sex appeal un matched by any other system on the market.

As soon as I get caught up Ill post you some pictures.

Ok dave sounds good and right now I have the stock ls6 ntake and tb and thts wht I plan to use the system with ... but like u say later I can only upgrade the plate for the fast 102 intake right if thts the case thts perfect ...I would not wnt to tear down my whole set up for a intake manifold....

Just use an NX Shark nozzle until until you get your intake down the road. Then upgrade to a plate. I can guarantee you the Shark nozzle with proper placement will hit just as hard as the plate for the level you want to shoot.

We offer two styles of plate systems.

Universal. Includes plate with universal solenoid brackets and braided hoses.

Vehicle specific- Custom solenoid brackets, pre hardlined, specialty fittings.

With the vehicle specific is it taylored around the car and intake. So if you went to a fast intake later the solenoid brackets, hardlines and plates would change.

With the universal the only thing that would change would be the plate.

In the event you did want to start off with a single nozzle system our single nozzle system would be the way to go. Since it uses the same solenoids in our vehicle specific plate system all you would need is the parts to upgrade when you get the different intake.
