I HAVE a 2000 ls1... rite now it has a catback, cutout,and mti lid with CAI.... basically stock in other words... before the nitrous. i plany on installing my CNC HEADS,TR224/224/ 112 LSA CAM,LS6 PORT AND POLISHED OIL PUMP,LS6 OR LSX INTAKE,LSX 78MM TB, HOOKER LT's,MSD COIL PACKS,AND EXCHANGE MY MAGNAFLOW CATBACK FOR A BORLA ONE...now my question is.. what would i need to do to run a 100 wet shot... as safely as possible....

 

First trash the stock fuel pump and get a 255lph at least. I just installed the Racetronix and love it, fuel pressure went from 50 psi to 65 psi on the stock regulator.
Dont forget the usual safety stuff like FPSS and a Window switch, I also have these and wouldnt dream of spraying without them although some do.

 

will do...what about colder plugs and retarding the timing? if i retard the timing would that affect my daily driving because the car is a DD...

 

Yeah, NGK TR6's are my personal choice and if you wanna run that cam (same exact one I have) you will need to retard the timing, it's suggested that you retard 2 deg. for every 50 hp. It's also recomended to close the plug gap by .004 for ever 50 hp. Here's a very good and informative read, I read all of it a few times before I spent any money. Hope this helps!

BTW About retarding the timing, talk to Matt @ HSW he has a couple of very good devices that work very good and only retard the timing when the nitous is armed.

 

thanks for the link... it has alot of usefull info.. dam there so many things that need to be done to run nitous safely...from what i read there.. it seems like a dry kit is much more safer... i thought it was the other way around...

 

Welcome.
I run a wet kit and agree that a dry kit is safer but, if I were to go dry I would run bigger injectors for sure. The injector factor is the only reason a wet kit appeled over a dry kit to me. Also a lot of people agree that a wet kit hits a lot harder than a dry making a little more torque. Another con of the dry kit is that you are limited to how much you can spray too. Neither is really better than the other just have different pro's and cons,

 

hmmm i c... well i dont plan on running higher than a 150 shot until im ready to build a 408ci... thats my future plans.. waaaaaaaaaay future plans... basically i want my stock bottom end to last as long as possible...

*edit* i was going to run bigger injectors anyway... my boy bought some ford ones... im not sure what size tho...
