I jetted the nitrous at the solenoid instead of at the fogger. WHich is a modified fire extinguisher nozzle. SPrays directly down onto air temp sensor. Works great. Took it to the 1/8mile track last friday night. TImers were not working. But i was going across the finish line on the rev limiter 7100rpm in 4th gear. Without the nitrous i am half way through 4th on a good run.

Is there any timing retard control??? Most of the time when a nitrous motor goes it is from too much timing (assuming it is not too lean)...it will break pistons and kick out rods.

Hope this setup is equipped with retard control...and I hope it don't go lean.

In any case best of luck. BTW...I buy my nitrous in the convenient 125# size.

I have the timing pulled back with Ecmspy, way back. i have added an RPM switch set to cut off the nitrous at 6800rpm, i also get my nitrous in the big mother bottles. local gas company brings it to me. Is $130 per bottle. My volvo 850 turbo is on the bottle also. Used more as a liquid intercooler on that. Dry shot directly into the inlet of the turbo. RUns 8.30's in the 1/8mile.

Cool...timing control and a window switch...carry on.

We started buying in bulk a long time ago...got tired of the "nitrous guy" at the track charging 6 bux a pound...

We use 3 pound cylinders on the bikes...to fill them we use a scale, a bucket, some ice, and a hose...no pump required.
