Default I'm now an addict

I finally got my nitrous all hooked up and the courage to flick the switch. I am an addict now. I have a NX direct port with NXL nozzles jetted for 100, NX noids, a hood purge set up from nitrous outlet, n2o's switch panel, Trick P gauge, and a Dynotune bottle with blow down tube and heater. All the sponsors have been great. I can't wait to get it to the track.

Make sure you watch the AFR. I have the NXL kit jetted for 180. I found my stock fuel pump was way under powered for the fuel demand and my AFR went WAY UP WAY fast. I couldn't even complete a dyno run. I've purchased a replacement pump and now just have to find time to install it.

Like your install. You did a good job from what I can see.

Yeah i've got a walbro 255 pump and a racetronix hotwire kit to help the fuel side out i've got a solid 63-65psi all the way through. I had a little scare the first time at 5400 I had a lean spike to 17 afr, the p gauge pulled the nitrous in time and nothing bad happened. I checked over the scan and everything else looked good the fuel pressure, the injectors, and timing were all great. I looked all under the hood and didnt find any thing so I tried it again and all went well, and no problems since. I'll attach the scan if anyone wants to look at it and let me know what they think. By the way the wb is reading about .75 high I haven't got it quite calibrated right for the hptuner yet. Thanks for all the responses. Shawn just be glad I like my forth gear and dont want to rebuild my trans again or you may have seen 170+ not just 130. By the way the first pull is no juice the second is with it.

Congratulations and welcome to the wonderful world of N2O -- it's freaking awesome isn't it.

I also went with a baby 100 rwhp shot and it's absolutely an addiction!
