nitrous battle
#31
Im bout to slap in some 75hp jets for the street. When I go to the strip or whatever Ill just put the 100shot back in. The 100 shot is just crazy fast and it whoops cars on the street around here. Plus I get minimal traction. I figured since its summer time ill want to spray it more, weather gets warmer, and im on stock tune. Sound like a good idea to anyone? Itll put less stress on the engine. I think it would be fun and hit pretty hard too.... dont want to jack the thread......

I went through the same decision process and after reading all i could i went with the nx efi wet kit and couldnt be happier. Hits hard even with the small 50 shot and lots of room to grow .Install was easy as well ,and tech support from nx seems good all emails answered in a timely fashion.
Love the kit

I think no matter what nitrous kit you get you will be satified unless it is installed wrong or it is from a crappy company, because lets face it nitrous is fun and whoever has nitrous no matter what kit they have if they are not having problems with it they will recomend it
Dont get me wrong there ARE some crappy kits out there but as longs as you go with a reputible brand and get some saftey equipment and dont be an idiot with it you will be fine

I have said this before and no doubt I will say this again a million more times, so here goes and take notes:
1 - The Venom kits are the safest on the market.
2 - Venom is the ONLY company that makes a kit smart enough to be installed on a car with a factory installed turbo or s/c w/o having to make any other tuning changes. There is no other company that can make this claim.
3 - While these kits are safe and simple to operate, you need a higher level of intelligence to understand how they work. Old-school nitrous users generally can't undestand because their heads are too far of their poop chutes.
4 - If you want to run larger shots of nitrous, then get a different kit. NX IMO is the best option. Venom kits are NOT for everyone or every application.
5 - If you spent $1500 - $2000 for a nitrous system making the claim that "well, at least I will be preventing a blown engine", then hit yourself in the face because you should have just spent a a few more bucks and bought a blower. After 2 years of spraying and paying for re-fills, you could have just paid for the blower anyway. The exception to this rule are race-style applications where larger shots are needed.
Well, there you have it. If you don't like Venom, then make a specific argument. Chances are, you don't understand how they work and you are unwilling to listen anyway because you have the "NX Disease". Understand that every user is different as well as their needs. Venom systems are great for the ocassional user in a street car looking for some safe fun.
(If I seem a bit irratated, I am. I am home with my 5 year-ol lab retreiver who is most lilkely dying from cancer and she is in constant pain.)

What I dont understand is with venom, dont you still need a purge, a bottle warmer, remote bottle opener, and a down tube or what not it is?
This is all things that I would want to get. With NX you can get accesories and buy these things. With venom I saw nothing at all on their site about these things.

With the Venom you do not need a purge, Get a bottle warmer, and why would you waste your money on an automatic bottle opener, just get your lazy *** up and open it yourself lol IMO. I dont have a down tube but i might get one
#47
How much power you putting down?
I'll have about 260RWHP will all bolt ons by the time I did nitrous.
With a 75 shot should it be about 335RWHP? and then 100 shot be about 360RWHP??
I really want no more than a 75 shot prolly, since it's a DD.

Purge: Any nitrous system can benefit from a purge as it is an easy way to empty your lines when you are done spraying. BUT with the venom, if you have air in your line, unlike other systems, fuel will not be added until their is actual nitrous flow. So unless you like the show, a pureg is not needed. When done spraying, I simply close my bottle and leave the line under pressure. Then I spray one last time to rid the line of juice. Within 2 - 3 seconds the line will be empty and the car will never run rich because the venom cuts back the fuel consumption as the nitrous tappers off.
Blow-off tube or down tune: This is a safety feature that some tracks require.

Shot? Dont get wrapped up around the axle on the whole "shot" thing. The amount of power you will make will depend on the amount of nitrous and fuel you add. NX rates their nozzles at the wheels, so a 100 shot means like 95 rwhp. Venom rates theirs in a range as it depends on bottle pressure. With the largest nozzzle that comes in the kit, you will get something like 70 - 90 or 80 - 100 hp. The lower number assumes no warmer. If you want more power, you just get a bigger nozzle. In the end, it all depends on nitrous flow. No nitrous system is magically more efficient then another.

Heres a little food for thought. I went from 262.6rwhp 281.5rwtq to 417rwhp 518.3rwtq with my NX 100 shot. Thats a gain of 154.9rwhp and 236.8rwtq. Thats what you get when you set everything up the right way. But I also have all the bolt ons and VT stage 2 cams which love nitrous. But then again its a auto with 4.10's and a 3500 stall.
#51
That is not a 100 shot then, that is a 150 shot - LOL
Please dont make him think that you somehow made more power magically. You made more power because you had enough flow of nitrous to support that much hp. Any nitrous system will make any amount of hp that you want. Nitrous is nitrous.
If you think nitrous is better then a blower, I will tell you what. Let's go on a 10 mile race. While a nitrous user is out of juice, the blower car is going and going and going. Dont get me wrong, I love nitrous. But it ain't no blower. BUT it can be a great power adder that you can add to any application including one that already has a blower.

After really looking into it, nitrous is somewhat expensive. Especially if you get all the bells and whistles.
How many times on avg. do you guys use your nitrous on a tank of a gas? If I had it I would prolly only use it once per tank of gas.
How long does a 10lb bottle last for?
I want something safe and reliable but don't want to skimp out, such as gauges, window switch, and bottle warmer (I would think that the inconsistency of the shot of nitrous w/o a warmer, could cause for bad A/F. Which obviously would be bad with that much power on stock block.)
MT#1, you still have that venom for sale? If so, how much?

If you have NO BOTTLE PRESSURE then you will get NO POWER! simple as that. I dont care what jet you throw in it quit feeding them all that crap! A heated bottle will make CONSISTENT pressure acroos the RPM range but a cold one will drop off like a PIG! You dont know what yer talking about.......

Yea I said it before and SLP is for camaros
