I had a dry 100 shot on my IS350 with less safety precautions than a monkey with a hand grenade. Ive put 65+ bottles through it with a button spraying from the launch to the finish. The only problem I have ever had is 3rd gear slipped one time when I got on the freeway (not spraying). I went from a 13.7 to a 12.6 in the 1/4 and a 9.0 to a 7.9 in the 1/8th. I also achieved one of if not the fastest '60 times in the 2IS with a 1.7.

Sent you some pics i took this morning.
Your gonna have to go with 17's and slicks if you want to spray out the hole. Trust me lol. My 12.0 pass was with me not spraying 1st gear. And when i hit the N20 in the beginning of second the car spun. I drove it out and settled for the night

Thanks for sending over a couple of pics to me this morning also. Should be up and running by this weekend. Nice to have a person on the forums willing to help out. The pics will make it a lot easier for me installing this weekend. Should shave some time off the install for me. When I take a trip to Florida I owe you a few drinks on me.

The ny-trex triple threat kit is a kit that works well with the novice installer, yet provides a clean install and safety features to keep you from damaging your engine.
Regardless of what you use, fuel pressure safety switch is important when running a higher shots of nitrous. You'd be surprised how much your fuel pressure can drop when you add a line off of your fuel supply. The length and diameter of the line come into play. Without this safety feature, you run the risk of a very lean mixture which would result in a very bad and very expensive repair bill.
I've used the Ny-trex kits on my other vehicles and I'm currently installing a 200 shot setup on my SC400. Currently I'm rebuilding and upgrading the internals of my engine to handle that kind of power, so I don't have any install pics on this care yet. I ran approximately 100 bottles through my Scion TC with a 100 shot for a year and a half. My dyno on the nitrous was 273whp and 298wtq. Much improved over stock.

Ideally, something light and durable. You dont really need to spend much money on wheels if you dont want to. Just get something just wide enough to fit the tire you want. My 60' was a 2.117.

No problem bro. Ill always do what i can to help out another CL member. Im gonna take diablo2184 on a test drive soon lol. Looks like the N20 big is spreading Ill be in texas next march for Supra Nationals so ill definably hit up for that beer
My car was parked at the shop for a few days because of this issue. Took the guys a little while to figure out a good place to source the fuel. I even pondered spraying strait methanol but i think ill let someone else try that out.
