so I have been working on a nitrous set up for a while now (three weeks) and as of last night it is done! here are some picts let me know what you guys think

this is the shift knob that was machined to accept a switch that will be used to activate the nitrous. the short shifter was modified to have the switch wires run through the lever.

So does the wot button on the floor prevent the nitrous system from engaging until the throttle is floored?

Never messed with nitrous.

Excellent install btw. Can't get much cleaner than that.

Is this the 50 shot setup you tried to explain to me Wally?

Nice install. Would love to see and hear this on a Dyno in operation - with a graph of course.:thumbsup:thumbsup

Very nice looking install.
How does it work? Do you have to hold the button on the shifter? I would think you might want both hands on the wheel : )

just got back from dyno!

so are you guys ready for this:wink it made 825hp:eek on 19lb of boost, 16 deg timing, 10.5 to 1 air fuel ratio and ah...oh ya... I almost forgot 100 shot of nitrous too:biggrin Im pretty happy with the results but there is a lot more in it. today was extremely hot and the IAT's were still in the 160 range the fuel is fat, and the timing is very safe at 16 there is definately room for more, but for the sake of being safe, especially since the car is going on a transport to vegas next week:biggrin I didnt want to push it. however when I get back from vegas thats another story.:lol


Im really glad you guys liked the project and thank you for the kind words. I was inspired by shadowman and wanted to emulated the quality of his craftsmanship. let me say this, what he does day in and day out, which he makes look so easy, is anything but. I have a whole new respect for Mr Bill, and I want to thank him for his advice and support on this project. it would not have turned out like it did with out his help.
