Default Nitrous is a GO!

WOW! <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0"> What a RUSH that is. It took me 3 days to install everything and about a week and a half of planning it all before hand.
I had GOBS of help from many forum members and vendors and without them none of this would have gone to plan. First off, I'd like to thank the LS1Tech forum member (nitropickup) who sold me his used kit with some goodies for an EXCELLENT price. Thanks to Chris at MTI for getting it to me and offering some advice on the install. A million thanks to C5Cemo for all of his help and advice and jetskifast for his suggestions and tech support on a lot of the wiring issues/concerns. You guys rock!
Everyone's help is VERY appreciated and if you ever need anything from me let me know and I'll do my best to share some insight! Also thanks to Colonel for his great web write up on plug gapping and suggestions, Austrian Vette, intel55, whip383,Godspeed, and rwj383 your comments were a great help! Also, thanks to Chris@SpeedDemon for the NX switch and his advice and to RG for the BPP WOT switch!

Now, on to matters of business... NITROUS is DA BOMB DIGGITY! It's is AWESOME. I arm it in second gear and what a RUSH it is. The coolest thing is that it's so smooth and graceful power. You can definately feel it kick in. My plugs are gapped at .040 w/TR-6's. On the spray my WOT is .88 and off spray is .92 w/ZERO KR in either scenario. I love it. Now, where are those Vipers . I'm gonna race one this upcoming week. It's a 97 bone stock GTS, think I can romp it?

Glad to hear you like it. What size shot are you running? 100 or anything over that and you'll walk all over a stock Viper.

Good to hear it went well for you. I'll be wrapping up the install next sat. Theres a guy on this board that is helping me along too. Don't you just love the community here. Totally awesome.
I'll be ripping a 75 wet shot on my 2000 SS. See where that puts me and then up it to 100 when I get ATAP.
