Default Nitrous is working

Just got back from testing out the nitrous install in my car. I gotta say it didn't kick as much as I thought it would, but then again I am using a 75 shot right now. But at least I can tell it's working. Probably going to throw the 100 shot jets in it tomorrow before I go to the track. My best run so far without the nitrous was a 14.4 1/4 mile. Should be high 13's right now but I can't get my reaction time down cause it's usually around .445 seconds. So it will be interesting to see what I run tomorrow night.

Ya nitrous isn't like it is in the Fast and the Furious lol

A 75 shot is pretty small and isn't anything that will throw you back in your seat lol

Congrats on finally getting it done! Don't be surprised if even the 100 shot isn't overwhelming in feeling. When i first did mine i though i would feel more of a kick to be honest, but then when i raced my bro (we were dead even n/a) i realized it was a pretty big difference lol.

Yeah I wasn't expecting anything like the Fast and the Furious but I honestly thought it would kick a little more than it did.

I will find out tomorrow. Had to adjust my nitrous lines because the one going to the nitrous solenoid was leaking.

If the line was leaking, you probably weren't even getting a full 75hp worth of nitrous. Probably was running ultra rich like that.

Btw, what size are the jets you are running? My kit uses a .044 nitrous jet and a .028 fuel jet for a 75 shot. Basically, I'm wondering if your kit is rated at the crank or at the tire.
