Nitrous Setup Question My nitrous system will be in as soon as i get the computer tuning issues resolved.
I am considering 3 setups.
1) 100 dry shot.
2) 100 wet shot on stock fuel system
3) 100 wet shot with fuel system upgrades.
For # 3, I am considering either an inline pump or a upgraded intank pump. Im not sure how the inline pump would work considering it would be sucking through the stock pump.
This is on a '98 with stock injectors and fuel pump. The car has a hotcam, are stage2 heads, Mac headers and orp and, it is running 116 mph in the 1/4 on the motor right now.

Re: Nitrous Setup Question With your current setup and HP levels I would most definately go for #3. That would be the safest route by far and also give room for future increase of HP levels.

Re: Nitrous Setup Question Thanks for the replies....
Looks like I have some work ahead of me!
Does anyone know the stock specs for the '98 pumps? I figure I will go up to a 255lph, but I am curious how much of an improvement that is.

Re: Nitrous Setup Question Just make sure you research the aftermarket pumps also. The Walbro 340lph pump is enough pump for a decent shot of go-juice, but it has been reported to affect the N/A performance. The Racetronix looks to be a nice easy simple upgrade. The twin Walbro 255lph pumps modified by ARE seems to be a good pump set up too.

Re: Nitrous Setup Question FYI ...the twin pump setup is a Racetronix product as well <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
At the HP levels you are contemplating you will require an external regulator system up front.
A single GSS340 with PnP harness might get you by.
You can always add the voltage enhancer to the setup to boost the single pump by as much as 30%.
