I just run a 100 shot on my car and am not the brightest, but here's my input. I run a 78 MM wet plate kit, 10lb bottle with warmer, purge, blow down tube and blanket, window switch, W.O.T. switch and a tune to pull timing. I would say what I have is the minimum you need to run "safely"(least risk). Window switch controls at what RPM the nitrous comes on and what gear. I have mine set to come on at 3k in 1st through 3rd and shut off at 6k. 3K is the suggested minimum for nitrous activation. I have mine off during shifts. Some people say it is safe to spray through the gears(A4), others say dependent on your tranny build. I have a built TCI, but choose not to spray during shifts. Sure I forgot some shit and Larry(1Badair) will be in shortly, he knows this shit way better than me.. If you choose dry, you will either have to tune in more fuel when activated and/or run bigger injectors. Also, 100 shot run NGKTR6's, 150-200shot TR7 are suggested with a non projected tip.. With wet you also need to verify you flow enough fuel(or upgrade) to support the shot you want to spray or run a standalone fuel system.

larry covered most of the basics. IMO with all the info out these days I'd never run a projected tip plug, even on a 100 shot.

Really? First I've heard of that.. I've been told by many nitrous guru's TR6's are good for 100 shot or less.. So you think I should switch to TR7 non projected as well?

there are many threads on tech regarding the subject and some guy do have problems with the TR6 plugs melting, not often on a 100 shot but it can happen. I would do what you feel comfortable with. The only adverse affect with a non-projected plug is said to be they are slightly harder to tune, that is it. I'd do it just for piece of mind.

Ahhh. Well I have been on TR6's and a 100 shot for 2 years with no issues.. So why mess with what isn't broken. If I up my shot to 150 this spring, then I will def be changing plugs..

[DETROITMUSCLE]

good idea, I certainly don't want to tell you what to do as I know the TR6s are probably just fine but just stating my opinion as I haven't ever heard of anyone having those issue with any non-projected plugs

The reason I want to know as much about this because not only do I want it, but the previous owner had nitrous hooked up and my car is still tuned for it and i already have the TR6's on my car I believe. Thats about all I do know though lol thanks guys

[Darren]

Didnt you find the hook ups for it as well Kolin?

[DRYSUMP]

yes i forgot about that lol

[DETROITMUSCLE]

so what exactly was left in the car?

[ThreeHonks]

Im not expert on the subject, but I do know that if you want to do it right and safe you can expect to spend a bare minimun of $1000

[ITSSLOW]
