kodai or anyone using nos on a GS400

What all did your system include? Any form of computer ECU upgrade or just a run of the mill "wet" kit? Where did you tap into your fuel system? Is there a port on one of the rails or did you T into the fuel feedline?

Do you use a RPM switch to turn the nitrous on and off? What size shot are you running?

Thanks in advance,
James

Also what are your chances of blowing your motor on a 100shot Nitrous?

There is always the chance of blowing up your motor each and every time you spray...I ran a 150-200 shot on my C5 vette for a long time, but one day I accidentall hit the rev limiter...= fuel cut....boom! Any time you use it, always be aware of the consequences and NEVER GET GREEDY! I would suggest a 75 shot...see Mean Gene for more details....hope this helps

If I had a lease...I would consider spraying this car, but I am in it for the long haul... no N20 = less wear and tear

There are ways around the rev-limiter problem you had. These motors are so over built it is crazy, I can only imagine the amount of n20 one of these things could hold.

6-bolt main,
steel crank,
forged pistons,
forged rods,
i mean come on, this sounds like a race engine..
