Yup Bought the NOS!!!!!!!!!

[carguy_z28]

Ok, so, I went against all advice, and I boought a 150 shot of NOS. The kit is from Edelbrock. Does anyone know how to install it? the shops here wont do it unless you have a racing liscence. ( stupid ). Analogkid455, any ideas?? ( I have a 1991 GTA, 5.7 T.P.I. )

NOS is pretty easy to install and you can find diagrams on the Nitrous works web site. You can either run the system by using a switch or by installing a full open throttle switch on the throttle body. Do not use it to much or you will be rebuilding your engine, if your motor is stock it definitly was not designed to handle the destuctive properties of NOS. Good luck with the install and I hope you get a chance to blow away all the Mustangs and rice burners you can find.

Right on, thanks Budd. Ill try that, but I dont really feel THAT confortable doing it myself, I dont really feel in the mood to blow myself to shit. So, I hope I dont mess it up.

nos isnt even flameable , you wont blow your self up . Just do some reading on it and go for it.

NOS vs TRANNY

Not flammable!!?? ok.................. Im getting it installed at a friends house, he has done it before, mostly on civics and other sewing machines like that, but he said he can do it. I cant wait to run it on the track and ee what it does. Can it rip apart my tranny if I use it while it shifts??

It really isnt , not by its self, it just makes the air charge cool and dense to make more power. It wont light by its self

Here i copied a good post from another site, so you young kids dont sound so stupid, I bet you think dirt bike hae a power band that kicks in too.

"N2O is absolutely, 100% NON-FLAMMABLE. It cannot burn, combust, ignite, or explode by itself. but, it does have some interesting qualities that make it work so well for horsepower junkies. Here's how: When the nitrous is in the bottle, it is under a LOT of pressure, usually around 1000 psi (the pressure is why the bottle could explode, NOT because the nitrous is explosive -- 1000 psi of ANY gas could be a bomb). The first thing that happens to the nitrous when it enters the engine is that it very quickly goes from a liquid state to a gaseous state, and that process absorbs a lot of energy in the form of heat (an endothermic reaction) -- meaning shit gets real cold, real fast -- so the first thing it does is "refrigerate" the air in your intake, which is a Good Thing. The next thing that happens, is that when nitrous reaches a temperature of around 250 to 300 degrees F (can't remember the exact temp, sorry), it dissociates -- which means instead of being nitrous oxide, it is now separated into nitrogen and oxygen, the two elements that it is made of. So, before your spark plug ever fires, it's no longer nitrous oxide, it is now pure nitrogen and pure oxygen. This is the second and most important Good Thing. The extra oxygen combusts with all that extra gasoline that's injected with the nitrous, and makes the engine act like it is much bigger than it really is. Also, the extra nitrogen goes along for the ride, with some saying that it does a great deal toward warding off detonation, which is a Very Bad Thing, and another, even more technical discussion.

You defintly can rip apart your trans if you hit the button while you shift, unless you have a built up trans. Usually you hit the button after you have shifted into your final gear.

My brother has an 96 Impala SS with a 150 shot and he has 100xxx miles on his motor. If nitrous is installed properly, (window switch, wot switch, and a method to retard the timing) you should get miles of smiles. If you really want to do it right, add a low fuel pressure switch.
