Default Very stupid thing happened...

Well I got my HSW kit installed. I thought we had put the 50 shot jet in, but had a friend helping me and this is what I get for not doing it myself. So after we got it in we went and tested it out. I was VERY satisfied with the 50 shot and couldn't wait to get the 100 in but wanted to wait to change my plugs to the tr6's.

Well I got the plugs in and went to change the jet to the 100 shot jet, and come to find out, THERE WAS NO JET AT ALL IN. So now with the 100 shot it feels slow lol. Anyone know or have a guess as to what shot a straight nozzle would be?

Oh boy... no jet in it at all... does the car still run good? I'd be afraid you made the car go way lean with that much nitrous. I don't even know how much of a "shot" that would be lol.

i think it may be more then a 300... the fogger can spray much more then 250-300 bye itself...



really reallly stupid...... if someone is helping you especially if its with nitrous stuff always double check everything they do.

Total nitrous flow would depend on the type/size of the solenoid also. A small solenoid would only flow around 150-175 based on the orifice size through the solenoid.

Very lucky no serious damage was done.

No jet installed would net you around a 175 rwhp shot if you are running the SI kit.

Thanks,

I thought the SI kit was rated to a 200 shot? Does the dual nozzle make a difference?
