Anyways so iv pretty much srapped my procharger plans unless I strike it rich. So I won a NOS TPI kit on ebay for $385 and I read some wheir that their/the kit(s) are calibrated to use the cars STOCK timing....no chips no funny stuff.....IS THIS TRUE?

-ill be using a 100 shot 125 tops.....
--L98

 

To be safe I would retard the timing 2 degrees per 50 horsepower added and get some colder plugs

 

damn....I was hoping not 2....ill givem a call and ask before I do that....just bought new plugs 2....

 

I installed the kit and the instructions ?(yes I read'em..) say to use with stock plugs, stock-stock timing no chips, and a min of 92 gas (im runnen 93) and that they also dont condome use of any of their products.....

-lol-

 

Retarding the timing 2 degrees per 50 HP is just making it safer / engine last longer...
Don't activate it below 2800 RPM...
A fuel pressure safety switch will also save you big $$$ (ie. your engine)...

i'd use a colder plug right from the start no sence in burning a piston top off or pinging it death

 

Quote:their/the kit(s) are calibrated to use the cars STOCK timing.

I use NOS universal kit ($385 about right). Multiple jets incl. Instructions are explicit in warning to use colder plugs and reduce timing. Also only allow it to activate over 3000 rpms. There is an accessory that disallows under 3000rpms. Mine is set for 3200 rpms on and over 25 mph on. Their jetting chart is on safe side I found out.

 

Yep. Most directions have you jet it a little rich. They figure the normal user isn't going to have a wideband or a dyno available to get it tuned exactly. Lots of members on here have ran 150 HP shot down a stock 350 without issues.

 

I have sprayed it (100 shot) 10 times since the 4th of july, motor runs just fine. I HATE THE STOCK CHICK THOUGH!!!

 

well keep spraying it for no reason and let us know how long she lasts

 

the hells that suppose to mean....

 

I mean if your racing it against somebody then spray it up, if your at the track spray it up. but just to use it because you have it is unneccesary and let us know how long it lasts. It'll be good to know what we can expect from nitrous.

 

Itll be monday before I can get my fix.... :- (

- I was spraying it to get used to it and see what needed tweaking and what else I WOULD need to run with the spray.

I adjusted the cooling system and some small stuff inc-ding bottle blanket and a bottle heater.

I also have a planned track date in 3 weeks (3 pay checks) to see what it will do. I still need to get the 150 shot jets, and a msd blaster coil because the stock ING is just plain weak.

---also have 5.3L swap plans in the mist

5.3L + 150 shot + ***** of steal = HAULEN ***!!!

 

I think he means he wasn't able to melt down his motor with it for no reason, so he sold the kit to me so I can attempt to melt mine down with no particular purpose in mind besides trying to break loose the rear tires.

 

ummmm.......w-A-t????
