Thread: Nitrous gurus, chime in please!

Same here. This is how nitrous works. No?

Every setup is different. For instance if you have two different wet kits, but one has large solenoids and one has small solenoids, they will require different jets to net the same hp. I know there are "calculators" online that don't take any of that into factor, but if you look at the charts that come with such kits, they're different and they come with such different jets. If it was as simple as use this jet for this hp there wouldn't be so many people with blown engines due to nitrous.

Bottom line is go with what the kit manufacturer says.

I have a nos nitrous kit.I'll check what solenoids I have and I'll let you know.

Aight now I understand where you coming from.You just mentioned that it was totaly different because it was a dry shot.You didn't mentioned the solenoids.But what you have pointed out now is completely dead on.I completely forgot to take the solenoids in consideration.He will have to use smaller jets if his solenoids flow more than the ones I have.It's a good thing you pointed it out cause I just noticed how everybody recomeneds jets without knowing wich solenoids are being used.

Zex's chart says 26fuel and 46 No2 now thats only probably 85 to the wheels...

here is the chart

I accept with information:In other words wet or dry the nitrous jet is feeding the same amount of nitrous into the engine but the fuel will be getting fed diffrently.

It seems to be the ultimate business opportunity for anyone who has worked hard and invested a lot. What better way is there to expand.

.047 N20/.053 Fuel seem to be a popular number.(for carbs)
However the "Sniper" series seams to be set up for carbs, and its not in the line up on that page.

Quick google search shows that .047 N20 will be good for 100 shot at the crank. For fuel I would start rich and work your way down. Start with a little bigger then .026 and then lean it out with a smaller jet. A 100 shot isnt really rocket science so just make sure you start off rich. Use a wideband or a Dyno shop to varify AFR's cause 100 shots tend to make me nervous!

I run a or ran a 46 26 on my spec which was a 95 shot by their chats. which is also a 100 by zex charts, I noticed that nos brand under rates their shot also
