c_long20 Posted November 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 With the wet system I can control the amount of fuel going in via a metering jet, like a carburetor jet. The jets vary with bottle pressure, fuel pressure, ambient temperature, and however much power you want. I like this system b/c I dont have to get a "special ecm tune" for it to work. Yeah there is a lot more research and time to put into getting working right but im not relying on some other jackass' fuel map. Just my thoughts, you guys do what you want. The wet EFI systems only need about 40 psi fuel pressure to operate correctly, mine is staying b/w 55-60 psi while spraying. I think the fuel pump is keeping up well with my setup.

Account_Deleted_T5M Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Regap your plugs at .023 to .025 stock gap is .028, pretty close to a t5 with basic mods, i trapped 8.9 @81mph in the 1/8th last year with a t5m with exhaust/tune/LSD Awesome idea, i've always wanted to run a 50 shot on the t5, but i'm leaning more towards putting it on my 850 na Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well one of the benefits of running nitrous I would imagine is timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorqueSteer Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Well one of the benefits of running nitrous I would imagine is timing. Unless you are using very small shots for the cooling effect, ignition timing needs to retarded when running nitrous, just like any other forced induction. I only had to dial back a few degrees though with the 75 shot I ran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorqueSteer Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Nitrous is forced induction? Yup You are forcing more oxygen into the engine than it can "naturally" take in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
550 Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Hmm... I never knew that. Interesting info. But it is the colder of them in terms of heat and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

550 Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 That, right now, is the most interesting thing I have heard in a long time. Is that dry or wet though. I wonder if that has any change on it even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that has any change on it even. Not 100% sure but it should be the same. Wet or dry, there still should be the same amount of extra fuel to be paired with the nitrous. Wet just delivers the fuel from an external source (fuel solenoid run to the nitrous/fuel nozzle), whereas dry shots needs to have to fuel delivered by ecu tuning or a bump in fuel pressure when the nitrous sprays.

Dpartsman Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 I just got finished installing a NOS Pro Shot fogger system to the wagon. Haven't had a chance to make any runs with it to see if my times changed. I am waiting on the correct jets from NOS, but I just had to post this. It came off a 454 2 stage 500hp setup. I am glad for ya. Hope it goes well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorqueSteer Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Kaboom! Kapluee! Kapow! See Ya! Wouldn't want to be ya! And all the other Kaput words you can think of. Man, I feel for ya. Whens the wake? Was it peaceful? WOW! I'm sorry, that was just my mind thinking. What are you nuts? Ive run nitrous for years on my Volvo with no problems, if you know what you are doing, its a perfectly safe power adder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
