Thread: nitrous in ve

if you are running a wet kit you should be safe on a 75 shot. there are a few people running around 100 shot. Setzer makes good maps I am running his bin on my ve car.

its a nos wet kit,jet sizes are .36 nitrous and .24 fuel..which is supposed to be 75 shot...bottle pressure is sitting around 900-950 psi.well my second time out with the nitrous seemed a bit different,plugs black around the ring(a sign of rich),porcelain was clean(no peppered specs) and ground strap was white halfway(the other half was kinda brown to the tip of the ground strap)i guess its looking better,the car never feels like its breaking up(no loud popping) and is 2x's as fast.it starting to feel more and more like my old dsm on 22psi but without the traction through 1st and 2nd

You're probably fine. I'd still get it to a dyno or use someone's wideband regardless though.

agreed I always use a dyno to check the a/f because it safe to open the car up and you can see whats happening. I don't trust plug reading because I have found in some cases the plugs look ok but the car was running lean.

i will be getting it on the dyno this week...gonna do 3 runs,one n/a and the others on spray...

good deal.

just got off the dyno,i only pulled a 158hp to the wheels(NA)and the dumbass didn't set it up for the torque.....also for some reason my nitrous wouldn't kick on...check relays,wiring,etc...(running off a wot/tps nos box for activation)they even gave me an extra run with the guy holding the solenoids and nitrous feed line to nozzle just to make sure if it was spraying,no luck..gotta go back and check my box...but anyhow back to my NA run,they said my a/f was in the 14's,so it was kinda lean...funny thing is my ecu is a calum basic with a rom from eric 212 for stock sr20ve,ve inj,stock cams,n60 maf.........also once we left realized that i was still running dirty air filter that came with my pop charger(re-oiled but was still dirty,you can barely see light through it)would that affect my a/f ratio's...kinda dissappointed but hell still made more than most hondas.the vvl activation probably scared them,their use to honda's..lol..will post dyno graph soon as i can scan it

a dirty air filter will rob you of power. The number is still low what kinda dyno was this on.

it was a portable trailer type dyno,i think he said dynocom or something.he says it reads a little higher than a mustang dyno....in the pics on this website is the same exact dyno they used(same one exactly)..Piedmont Dragway Dyno PICS - Carolina Hondas
would the dirty filter affect a/f ratio's

^^^bummer,that seems low for the mods.
