V8ian Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 Oops, ive done it now -------------------------------- Went to the NSRA SwapMeet today, More stalls there than I have seen for a long time, even the bottom car park was full of stalls and there were LOTS and LOTS of goodies for sale, including a LOT of nitrous kits, and I am sorry to say I was swayed away from the Ritious to the Nitrous, and Bought a 8 jet fogger system for not a lot of money near closing time, Guess its going to be Mid 11s later this year then
w p e Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 was that the kit with the purge selonid and a few extras
over_head_cam Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 pssst psssst Your 'Tina's already a stormer Ian, when's the kit going on?
Baz. Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 you better change your sig then mate from no gas to ive got gas you cheat
sierra1off Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 good move Ian, i was there till 12 and your right there were lots of kits for sale there, all good value and some with full bottles. i got a little NOS system today too, Not sure if my auto box will take another 75HP, but got to have a go!!
surfingturnip Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 what rough cost are you looking at for a full nitrous kit then?
sierra1off Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 I paid £200 for the kit, (single injector) thats less than half the new cost. If i had been able to wait till later in the day i could have got it cheaper That carbon bottle looked neat.
V8ian Posted March 2, 2008 Author Report Posted March 2, 2008 Yes Wayne, that was the kit, could not afford the bottle, so I will have a sniff around my mates garage and liberate one of his spares, OHC, when the engine is built it will be fitted for my first trip up the Pod The Carbon bottle was offered to me, for a bit cheaper than the £280 mark wanted for it, SurfingTurnip. Cost wise Im hoping to have the kit on and running for under £200 using bits and bobs I have laying about,
dragaddict Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 jut watch out for the timing and let her shout
Mr Sam Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 mate your car was a monster last year.........engine freshen and a shot of gas....
sierra1off Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 Is there any rule of thumb, as to the ammount of retard to dial into the ignition when using NOS I realise every engine will react differently, but could i get away with a 75HP shot on a cossy running 12 lb boost ?
V8ian Posted March 2, 2008 Author Report Posted March 2, 2008 Im not sure on boosted cars, as the gas can be used as a charge cooler, NOS actually have a Helpline on their website, which I found helpfull, may be worth an ask on there, I have checked the instructions for my retardation, ans it recomends 4degs retard+ another 2 for safety, I dont know how much the kit I have is jetted for, I have a sneaky idea is 450hp I would think as soon as I use that amount, the crank would be sitting in the sump
V8ian Posted March 2, 2008 Author Report Posted March 2, 2008 just coud'nt resist it could you ian OhhhNooo, Got any old bottles laying about Mark??, I thinkk im pleased with my purchace, Did you buy anything??
