Nitrous System ?????s

[Nitro Dave]

We are suppose to have our RS SS in Late May early June. As soon as our car hits the ware house we will be riping it down to build a custom switch panel, dedicated fuel system and Complete Nitrous System using our highly proven plate design.

Keep your eyes open for the 2010 Nitrous Oulet System.

I'm not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV.

I am a farm boy that uses 318 Chrysler engines for irrigation well(as in pump water out of the ground) power units. I run 'em off propane. Propane is bad enough. Why you young people want to totally destroy an engine with nitrous is beyond me. Knock yourself out.

you only totally destroy it if you dont know what you are doing. you've probably heard too may horror stories, or seen too many times where the system was installed without proper fail-safe items, or the motor wasnt built to handle it.


one thing I will say as far as building any FI motor (be it mechanically FI or chemically FI), build the motor strong enough to make the power you want NA and it will hold up to that power FI.

I hear ya, Spike. It is what it is. That's fine with me. I'm just trying to be all about the long deep stroke.................and durability.

Y'all do me a favor, don't kill one another on the road. Get on the track. Shit, look at what happened in Charlotte, we don't need anymore of that crap.

Keep it strokin' brother

TBM,
Nitrous is no different than using a turbo or supercharger. When done correctly you can have years of safe fun. Done wrong and tuned wrong it can kill an engine right away. The only reason why nitrous use to have a bad rap is that you can but a basic kit with out al the needed accessories really cheap. This attracts the less educated people that do not have the money to do it correctly. So they buy a bottom of the line cheaply made system throw it on the car with none of the needed accessories with out cheaking the tune up and hope for the best. Then they act suprised when they blow it up and claim nitrous blew up there motor. You will not here them say that they did not educate them selfs before doing it nor did they buy a quality product with all the needed accessories. These are the guys that give aftermarket performance a bad name..
Just my 2cents

Dave,
Many thanks.

This is a blatent plug but is well deserved.
For anyone wondering, I put in a call and got the good fortune to talk to Dave himself. He has a lot of experience and knowledge and is extremely easy to talk to and is openly honest. Oddly enough, I was willing to spend some money with him BUT HE talked me out of it. He has plans in the works that are dependent upon delivery of a 2010 (like everone else here). He claims his kits are truely meant to fit the vehicle, wiring and all. I got so used to having to adapt everything over to fit my Fords, I never expected to hear this kind of information.

Anyone interested can check out his products at

Nitro Dave's has a new customer in me and I continue to wait and wait.....................I just hope everything for now is AFM compliant......at least for the mean time.

I will check tha link out...also looked at Zex.

Can a mechanic install these kits or performance center place here in California? Does anyone know if it is legal here? Shoot, pot is legal, but not the headers....crazy place!

Thanks,
Pure

It would be good to add some HP for my V6, but this sounds a bit more complicated than I can decide...risking the new motor is fools play? Or, it can be done safely?

it can be done safely. just do your homework!!!!!

[Gunsmoke]

i don't know why people always knock nitrous? who gives a rats a$$ as long as it MAKES POWER???

[jgflores35]

any one heard of the zex safe shot system, gives off like a 30 shot

[Nitrob69]

I added a ZEX nitrous system to my 2010 Camaro 2SS L99. I've only used the 75 shot. And have only used it for 3 passes. I'm going to go to the 100 shot next and get it tuned better. I ran the car Bone Stock and the best time I could get was a 13.8. After the Cold Air Intake, Hypertech tune, muffler delete and 75 shot I ran a 12.7 @ 110mph very consistant. I was wheel hopping very bad but when I learn to control that a little bit I think the same set up I should be in 12.4 area. Check it out on www.youtube.com (2010 camaro vs Cobra racenight) It was farily easy to set up. Here's the system I got.

Nitrous outlet is what I'd pick. If done right it will last you a good bit. Just get all the safety features and a good tune

[WeeZee]

NX - Nitrous Express plate kit for 5th gen LS3 CamaroSS and C6 LS3 vettes is top notch.
Id say a safe level is 100 horsepower, but plenty of people are 150+ without problems.
