I know I am about to Catch H*** about this but here we go! Most of my friends have nitruos, I have sold it, filled bottles and did just about everything else with the systems, But I have the first kit ever on my car, I have a 6.0l iron block with forged internals, except the crank, i have a builder who has put the motor together and is putting on the kit as we type. I am going up to learn my system, i do have a heater, purge, remote gauge and a spare bottle. The car is set up with a WOT switch and all the saftey cut-offs. Due to the scattering of 3 rear ends on the motor, and not having the cash to put a real one in, i am going to do two things.

One run on Radials, and two only run form 55 or up rolls. (this is where i get crap) What do I need to do/learn and do you guys have any tips or experiances you can share with your first NOS systems. Ps i bought a NX kit for RWHP

Better save for a new rear diff & driveshaft LoL Read the How to read Plugs, Read it Again!!! Then Triple check it Start with a small Shot till you learn the reading plugs Dont jump on a 200 shot out of the gate!! TO Keep from sounding like a Ricer CALL IT NITROUS NOT NOS!!! LoL Thatll getcha flamed For an LS car get the Lingenfelter Timing controller to pull timing Dont run around on a nitrous tune! Use a Non-Projected tip copper NGK spark plug, not TR6s !!!! Guys that are more LS savvy than me will chime in Im sure NX or Nitrous Outlet you cant go wrong with on a Nitrous kit I will say Nitrous Outlet HAS the Best Customer Service hands down!!!!!

first question is what are your goal with the car?
What kind of power and mods are you making now?
What does your fuel system consist of?

It sounds like you have the motor to be able to have a lot of fun.

Thanks warriorcustoms,

The goal is to have about 600 to the tires and (sorry LS Fans but Roll race)
I don't have the cash to get the rear end as I am a student and getting married next year.

30 over, Cam 282/288, stock 6.0l heads but rubbed to flow (made 20 to the tires changing from the ls1 heads) intake, LT's and cat back, makes 406 on a mustang dyno, The dyno is famous for low numbers (Heartbreaker) This is a Top end car for sure.

I have the builder doing the tuning and fuel system, and he builds some real quick cars in my area of TN. I want a pogressive controller but can't get one yet so what ever I go out on im on, unless i change the pills.

Here the car is on motor easy shifting
