RE: nitrous
If you plan on supercharging down the road, i wouldn't worry about the bottle warmer at all, summer is coming. I would still keep the nitous, get a nitrous spray bar and spray your intercooler. With the 75 shot and 91 octane, i wouldn't really pull anyt timing, but if your wanting to be on the safe side that's cool.

Thanks, thats really what I was wondering. I have been running the 75 shot for year with no problems. I use the 91 tune -2 degrees when squeezing. Before April, I am going to purchase some Autolites and the gapping tool to up it to 100. They sau the stock pump should be good to 125. Are you using a warmer? It's also on my list. However, since it's warming up out hereI may not need it by the time I race in April. I kind of don't want to invest too much in NO2 since I will be purchasing an S/C beginning of next year. Just want to be safe.
Have you guys seen the plate the NX is making?

Yeah Im running the HTOs and have a friend who helped with my tune.Ive been running the 125 shot for a while now with no problems from the stock pump.....So Im probally right at its limit.

What have you done with your tune when you run the bottle on the 125? You get spark plugs also?

Yeah I was wondering about this as well.Im runnining the 125 ZEX shot & love it but was wondering about how much more I could go on the stock pump.Will the stock pump handle a 150 shot or is 125 the most we can go with a stock pump?

No I dont have a bottle warmer.But when I need to heat my bottle up to pressure(1000-1100) I use a hand held mapp gass torch.You can buy one from Home Depot cheap.It takes 2min to warm a bottle.During the summer here in S.FLA and with my car being black it stays decently warm already!

RE: nitrous
450 to the wheels is nice but i wouldn't go any more than that unless you build the motor up. Also wet or dry kit? I know the wet kit will put more to the wheels. I forgot about zex selling thier own plugs, to bad we can't get them. I have the HT0's though. I hoping for about 355rwhp and 410rwtq with my 75 shot, since nitrous is a Torque monster maker. Might go up to the 100 shot though. I read for the 05's on Zex's website that after 150 shot we have to upgrade the fuel pump, well, it's recommended.

RE: nitrous
Its a wet kit and im scared to know what my torque is.When i got it tuned i didnt realized that my bottle was out and i didnt get to c what the real numbers was.IM guessingits around 450 though maybe more.That should be pretty close though but for my torque it was 317 to the wheels and with the bottle its proberly easly over the 500 mark to the wheel in a way it good but not good for my bottomend.Im been running it for a while though and the first two bottles didnt even have a tune.Now i got the flip chip that has more then one tune.And i just made them turn the timing back 6 degrees beings my bottle was out.Im so ready to c it on the dyno with the bottle though.Its aNX epress kit by the way

RE: nitrous
The nx kit for the 05up only come with up to 100 jets... That sucks i plan on putting atleast the 125 jets in mine first thing. As long as you remember the main rule of thumb with nitrous is for every 50hp take out around 2 degrees of timing that helps make everything a lot safer.I heard from afewdyno tuner guys that the DYNO TUNE wet kit ironic enough is agood kit, it doesn't use any brass, with any of the fittings plus it is really affordable. Which kit is everyone running the most with our cars.?
