Been running a 200 shot for over two years now. Nitrous Outlet Plate kit with NANO and dedicated fuel cell with C16.

Right on can't wait to see that. 5 degrees should be just about safer than safe right?

Update...Will have no solenoids coming in soon. With the bigger ones and better capabilities might be upping the shot to a 200, I just can't seem to get enough.

Of course the retune will be the deciding factor but with timing pulled and the C16 I'm already using I see no reason it won't happen.

C16 is only in the dedicated fuel cell used for the nitrous. You can see it between the ECM and radiator in the video. It is made by Nitrous Outlet.

We are far enough along to finally post a couple of pictures... This is our home made fuel cell, and the controllers as well as the twins bottles. It still in the final stages and isn't bolted down yet... we are waiting on a couple of fittings that should be in hand today...If not I'm off on a hunting party in San Antonio

This car is primarily built for going fast over a mile.... The standing mile... Therefore the fuel cell is big, at almost 2 gallons... and the twin 15 lb nitrous tanks... The car will probably also be run in some unlimited open road races....

Stand alone fuel pump in the cell, regulator outside the cell, C-16 in the cell, progressive controller.... etc...

Thanks... and it works like a dream... Here is a video shot of Brandi's first shot of giggle gas... Her 427 cubes and the twins all are in love with this stuff...

This is with a small shot.... car is still on a pretty conservative tune, and we haven't utilized the boost controller yet... We just don't have enough time to bring in so many new systems before the Fest, and with the heat, we feel it would be better to wait until Oct/Nov for better weather...

This is hitting her with a 50 shot at 2700 and ramping to a 100 shot at 3500 RPM's. It was very hot in the dyno bay, and yes we spun the tires on the dyno... Note the motor movement, this is with Prothane motor mounts, which are practically solid, with a little bit of urethane on them...

Robert,

Thanks for the video.

Two words...................Torque Strap.

.............and as would be expected as I have found with my endevour....no one makes one specifically for these cars. It is a cheap and simple solution from the "Old School" that will keep the left side of the motor in its place.

I'm looking at all the different power adders... Nitrous seems to be the least evasive, but I sure do like turbos. I've read some cool home grown turbo setups that produce huge power numbers, for less than 2000 dollars.....(used turbos).
