The kit's only 674 from Summit. I suppose you hope you get the right jets in the first time.

Hey B4,
both of those are useless!!! They have already released studys of the poor injector flow on the NOS Injectors and as for the plate system, they found out that it does not reach the first 2 cylinders as much as the back 6, so that why a Nozzle is the best~!

Jets also have the purpose of "fogging" the stream into the intake. If you want an example of why this won't work, take a garden hose sprayer and spray it down a tube... notice everything just drips out the other end.

It's not *that* hard to pull the intake off. I can pull mine in about 45 minutes, but I'll admit it'd be inconvenient.

Nobody would race my beat to hell VW for cash, titles, etc... I don't even bother asking with the Iroc.

Personally, I see installing a nitrous system like installing a car stereo. You can do a clean out in the open system, or you can do a clean hidden system. Either way, the stereo still bumps and the nitrous still burns rice.

I'm going hidden. I won't run more than a 100 shot on a ZZ4 shortblock anyway, so jet changing will be minimal. And it's not like it's that hard to pull the intake and put it back on in a couple hours. I'm all about the sleeper idea.

sure its easy to make money on the front range because all of the vette and 4th gen owners as well as the stangs have a hard time believing they will be beat by any kind of streetable third gen, they just cant see it coming

You can also use a fogger type setup under the intake.

Argh. Its "nitrous oxide", not nos, nahss, etc... Nitrous Oxide Systems is one of many manufacturers. Just a pet peeve from "Fast and the Furious".

a friend of mine is doing something that im thinking wont work on a tpi/hsr, but i figured i could through the idea out there... he just put a 347 stroker 94 cobra motor in his 67 stang, and if anyones paid attention on the 5.0 intakes (his is a gt-40 but i think all 5.0 intakes are the same) there is a freeze plug right before the runners, he's taking that out and running a nitrous bar through it and mounting solenoids under the intake, so it would be completely hidden with the exception of the nos line running to that freeze plug hole, which he was gonna buy just some blue plastic wire loom, to match the rest of his engine compartment... i was thinking that this wouldn't work in a tpi/hsr manifold because it would be distributed unevenly to the cylinders kind of like said above with the plate system, cept id imagin the effects would be worse, the ford intake would inject it a little further ahead of the runners, giving it time to mix a little and even out among the cylinders, but maybe someone is interested in trying it out

I saw a system somewhere that had the jets out at the solenoids. Don't remember the brand though, but it's out there.

So Jet it for a 200shot. and get a progressive timing controller and limit it to say 50-75% activation.

Prob not great on the solinoids over a long period of time but It would work.

It's jetted for a 300 shot. The car's been a best of the time in my sig, and w/ some tweeking she'll go 11.50's on motor. So I'm hoping for very low 10's on the kit. If it's close to 10.0 then I might put 400 through it just to get a single digit pass.
