wiring

If you are serious and purchase NEW there is a kit out there that comes with the Window switch, bottle warmer, remote bottle opener. I purchased the basic kit and THEN purchase everything else later on because you need it. Get a bottle warmer, without it you will not get peek performance out of your bottle.

Now, My nozzle is after the maf and before the IAt sensor. Stock vs. N20 number were almost 2 SECONDS difference. Go dry and get a window switch, its the safest way to go, and you also might want to get a fuel pressure gauge so you can watch it during nitrous passes just to be safer.

There's my 2 cents
So how's it going There's my 2 cents, everything ok? Do you miss us yet?

Nothing wrong with the Halo system, except the fact that it only runs one noid instead of two for safety. don't let em tell you that redundant noids are because of a quality issue, non-sense, it's for safety. The only real thing that can go wrong is a noid sticking open and with two this will not happen. Other than that issue, I see the Halo as the main competitor to the NOS 5177 (one of the most pop kits out and proven). If you like it go for it, you can allways add a second noid.

The 5115 uses redundant noids also.

If you buy a 5177 kit, or any other NOS kit, you can add the Halo bar from them for under 100 bucks, if you want to go that way. I've seen 5177 kits go used for 250 bucks or less, add the Halo on there, and bam, sweet setup

Oh, and a Harlan window switch is cheap safety, and no pills. Much cheaper then MSD and you are supporting a LS1 junkies habit

alright then, i saw a black one with different rear wheels, and it looked like drag radials running around down there when I was out and about today. around the sterling yacht area, i thought it might have been you. i guess it's actually closer to freemont.

Do any of you remember Gertrude from JP Patches? He lives over in that area and drives a yellow ZO6. He's a really nice guy too. I used to work right next to his house-boat over on Nickerson by SPU between the Freemont and Ballard bridges.

Gertrude, what a fine looking woman, erh uh, I mean man woman. I used to see Tony Ventralia around that area, and mostly on Queen Hill (that's where I lived). Had Ted Turner and Jane Fonda show up at Foss to take a trip on Company yacht to see Huskies. Met other famous people at my current job.

Ray/Tru-ice, you need some spray for next race season. I hope to get a bottle before the beginning of next season. Got to square away my cars issues first and may have to put the juice off till summer, but I'm gonna spray!! If you spray too, we'll be in the 11's for sure. With cages, we could run 10's...........

I see alot of interest here. Maybe this winter we can do a GP type thing with one of the vendor here on the board. I just bought all my stuff From Nitruos Direct. Great guy to work with. We may not get a huge discount on the price but having them all shipped to a central point at once could save hundreds in shipping cost

JP comes to the Stanwood/Camaro Community Fair every year. Still draws a huge crowd to see him perform. He does a Q/A w/ parents that is just hilarious!

You gonna give a discount on nitrous system installs too? Either way, I'd be in for a kit this off season if I have to buy new... I will definitely have me a kit before next race season.
