Nitrous Setup.. I'm kinda worried.

**first01SS** · 12-02-2008, 08:30 AM

Thats what i' getting.. any suggestions on mounting in the rear tire well? or did the kit come with it

**first01SS** · 12-02-2008, 10:53 AM

how much hp are you spraying? do you have a retard of any kind, or any other safety equipment?

**Danger731** · 12-02-2008, 11:16 AM

I don't retard timing , I only use a 100 shot tho...

Does anyone have the HSW EFI dry plate kit?
I'm interested in this one, but I have a granatelli air lid, so would I have get a smooth bellow, or would the piece I have work?

Not according to some of the other threads where people are actually having trouble finding F-Bodys on sale at all, let alone modded.

I ended up going with the LS1 F-Body, 78mm EFI Wet Nitrous Plate Kit from HSW, the MSD timing twister, and a progressive nitrous controller from Daytona Sensors. What i was most impressed about with this nitrous controller was its price/features. I also got a purge kit, and a bottle heater from HSW. Do i need a fuel pressure safety switch? (or any other safety devices? I also plan on getting a wideband controller with narrowband emulation from PLX.. any other suggestions?

how much did all of that end up costing you? if you don't mind me asking..

Nope, the a/f shut down switch can be used in place of the fpss. Use the wideband on the PLX to control the a/f features. Thanks again for the order, we certainly appreciate it.

I've looked at their site, I have a HWS wet kit on my ls1 but I do not see the plate kit on theur site.
Got a link??? I must be blind

COST:
Wet Nitrous kit, Purge and ashtray switch plate was 631.56. Daytona Sensors Progressive 2 stage nitrous controller was 229.95, through an online purchase direct from the vendor. The timing twister is 271.00 from summit. so far i'm 1131.95 in the hole. Later, i plan on lid, heads and cam; transmission, rear end, and ECU change

Also; I don't know where to have my car dyno'ed and tuned here in the Dallas, TX area.... i'm kinda concerned about who to take it to, and where to get refills on the N20... How much does a typical tune cost?

I have been using RPM up in Lewisville for my speed shop needs. I know they also do bottle refills as well. Their tune cost are 400 for the first dyno tune, and 60 for each retune that needs to go on the dyno (free for anything else).

**first01SS** · 12-08-2008, 08:58 AM

Is it worth it to have it tuned with a 125-150 shot??

**Nick@HSW** · 12-08-2008, 09:53 AM

At the very least I would get it on a dyno to verify a/f. Since you're using the timing twister from MSD you really don't require a tune. Thanks.

Are you looking for just the conversion kit? To go from a nozzle to a plate would require one of these kits depending on platform and tb. Thanks!

Good group of guys. Has yours been in the shop for a while now ? or recently ? Keep seeing a NBM SS there.

btw Nick eventually once I get the new motor done then I will get to start looking at systems. Been thinking of having a somewhat redundant safety system that will check for lean conditions, and fuel pressure. Is this just stupid overkill ?

**first01SS** · 12-09-2008, 07:54 AM

See.. thats me. I need to make sure i have all my bases covered from a safety standpoint before i spray. Since i don't have a wideband O2 yet, I'm kinda concerned about that whole instant lean condition....

**first01SS** · 12-09-2008, 08:02 AM

I'm also trying to find a wideband that will let me monitor both banks (Right + Left), while emulating a narrowband signal for daily driving to the ECU.. any thoughts??
