Small Nos system

Post by asam »

I want a small nos system nothing over a 50hp shot and i want to keep the cost below $300.

Any suggestions??

Here is one of my ideas: http://store.summitracing.com/default.a ... p&N=400047

The one I recommend is the ZEX wet kit...the universal one. Pretty much all the installs of NOS we do uses this particular system.

The install is super easy, runs on a 3-wire hookup (unlike 10+ wires other systems), and comes with 55, 65, 75 nozzles.

PM me if you want one :)

I don't see how this one is a wet system CCA-82021

I don't see any parts to mix with fuel...

Tom, would the ZEX wet kit be safe on a 1.4 8V Lanos? :? Not too sure...

I don't think that a nos system is safe for a car! Everybody risks when they use the system. It's imposible to be safe! For example: if you run with nos more than 20 sec(i'm not very sure about this) your engine will blow up! Another example: if you run with nos in a lower gear ( 1,2) or you hit the button when you have less than 3000rpm you will blow your engine again. So it's not safe. If you know how to use the nos system very smart you will have more changes not to damage your engine. :wink:

Well... i did use it a lot, almost became an addict to it...

I had a wet system and used 2 bottles in less than 2 weeks. :lmao:

The engine didnt complain. :roll:

I even did huge burnout (smoking the tires even on 3rd) when i test drove it in the first days i had it lol.

but on the 1/4 of mile i pushed the magic button only in 2nd and 3rd.

On highways is useless (at least the 50hp shot). In 3rd i tried to keep up with a couple of friends, a 240SX (SR20DET) and a '90 Prelude (with an H22A) when i did try it on 4th. it was almost the same with and without the nitrous.

But my engine had a low compresion. 8:8.1, so it was good for it, i was even going to try a 100 HP shot before it died (i didnt had the nitrous then)

That's your opinion! :wink:

I don't understand something: when you did that burnout you hit nitro in the first gear and the second?! How much hp did you tried when you did this burnout?!

An engine to resist to 100 HP of nitrous needs more modifications! I don't know the english terms to explain to you. :oops:

Mmh, nope, thats pretty much a fact.

For example:

The Lanos 1.6 (A16DMS) Liter engine, during manufacturing, was tested to 150 HP with no bad results for the reliablity, so why do you think a 35-55 HP shot would so easily blow an engine? If you were right, there wouldn't be a sane person on the face of the planet who would run nitrous at the risk of blowing his engine at every push of the button. You might be thinking of first timers who pay someone to install their kit with a 150HP shot on a stock Honda, but anyone who is remotely experienced with cars knows what to do (i.e. Efrain, who used nitrous).

Bottom line, nitrous is one of the best, most efficient ways to give your car a quick HP boost for passing or racing, and you would have to be pretty dumb to break your engine due to a low shot of NOS.

Yes, I hit it in 1st after the started spining, as usual my car pulls foward even with the tyires spining, so i powershifted into 2nd and 3rd with the button pressed :roll: but i let go the button after i shifted into 3rd.

I think wet uses every injector as opposed to dry...
