First Time Sprayer, Help me Prepare
First Time Sprayer, Help me Prepare Guys I have a 97 Z28 with 90K miles, many of which are highway miles as I drive 100 miles a day. Its an M6 with Full exhaust and intake mods.
The car used to be powerdyne supercharged and has been overheated twice, but Im pretty positive the car has good headgaskets as the oil and coolant always look good.
I got a really good deal on a Nitrous Express Nitrous kit. It came off of a 97 Trans Am and Im getting it for 275 bucks. I think he said it was a wet kit but I could be imagining that.
What would I need to do to run 150 shot safely.
I just got a new fuel filter so I figured get a new pump to Walboro 255 maybe.
Then Make sure the injectors are in good shape which im positive they are.
Then I would replace my ported and descreened MAF sensor with a stock one as Ive heard having a ported or descreened one can really mess with the MAF, but I dont know if that matters on a wet kit.
Then I will have a mail order tune done from MadZ28 and Ill tell him i plan on runnin a 150 shot.
I will also have a compression test done and a leakdown test to make sure the motor is strong.
And of course I will run proper heat range and gapped plugs.
You think itll be safe, anything im missing.

Im in the same boat as you,just ordered my wet kit from hsw Friday,this is what all I ordered,Nitrous filter,Fuel pressure safety switch,Bottle heater,Window switch, blow down tubes and NGk TR6s (gap.035-.038).I was told that is good start for safety.Also getting my car tuned after I put the kit on.
I have a related question...if someone wanted to test a window and/or TPS switch on a wet kit when they first wired it up. Would be be a bad idea to make sure it only kicks on in correct rpm window and at WOT by trying it with the nitrous bottle disconnected? I know it'll run super rich, just injecting fuel, but at least you'll know everything is working and hooked up correctly before you actually hit the nitrous.
You want a RPM window switch, Fuel pressure safety switch, NGK TR6 plugs gapped around .035-.038, and a walbro fuel pump. Thats enough to safely spray a 150 wet shot.
If you need a stock MAF let me know I have one for sale 40 shipped.
