oh yeh and the guys at the tuning shop dynoed it 3 times as i had the 75 shot in. They changed it to the 35 and tuned that and im gettin hell more out of it now.

Apparently on the standard engine managment system ya can only really run about 30-50Hp gain because the knock sensors can only retard about 2-3 degrees anymore and they read it as a error code and wont retard it.

So yeah if i wanna run ALOT more (which i do) i gotta get something like that in the future. But god dam i gotta get used to this first, its unbelievable

On the dyno results i have gained 50 RWHP (so far) with the low shot of NOS, The way i had it set up (75 shot) i gained 34. that is prolly the reason for the low 1/4 time's..

thats pretty good.


the setup that i did on my mates ef gained 77rwhp, with the 110hp shot, if you calculate that roughly with 30-34% drivetrain loss, then you end up with 100-105hp gain.... i think thats is pretty damn close

This is the most important post on this subject.

An RPM Window Switch allows you to set a minimum RPM point to complete the circuit and activate the fun factor. At the pre-programmed "Close Window" RPM point, it turns the fun factor off.

A Bottle Warmer will maintain the bottle's temperature and therefore the pressure of the contents.

The Low Fuel Pressure Switch will turn the circuit off when fuel pressure drops below a predetermined point. This prevents your engine being attacked internally with an oxy torch.

Thats fantastic, sounds like a heap of fun.
I know this guy who is running NOS in his ba xr6 NA and the power gains are unbelievable. Off nos it pulls 177rwkw but when you hit it it jumps to 240 rwkw. Amazing, its what you need if some angry xr6t lines you up............on the track that is :lol:

G'day Sim,

If you gas it too early in the rpm range, eventually you WILL run over your own crankshaft.

Too many people rely on the full throttle switch alone as a means of activation. Step on the throttle from idle and there's a very bloody good chance that you'll be injecting nitrous from as low as 1500 rpm.

To quote from Nitrous Oxide Systems (NOS), "Nitrous can be safely applied above 2,500rpm under full throttle conditions."

A decent window switch is available from MSD for under $200. Set the low side at 2,500 and the high side at 5800, for example. Gas on; gas off. This is especially useful in the event of a driveline failure or a missed shift. Either event resulting in massive over-rev...

Thanks for the info on that. I stall mine up at about 1300rpm or somewhere around there n wen the light goes green just dump the foot, i wait a little incase of wheel spin then i nos it.. next time i do this ill check what rpm i gas it

A window switch will also help with your consistency if you're bracket racing.

if you go with an aftermarket ECU %90 of them have nitrous control or a spare out put that can be used for it.

something to keep in mind if you plan to go that way,
some may even be able to be setup to use a second out put/in put to act as the low fuel pessure switch aswell
no need to double up
