NITROUS
I was watching a video on youtube of a new stang with the Zex 125 shot. I was wondering what other things would need to be installed to make this system work without destroying the car. Also anyone have this and had their car dynoed? Thanks

no a 125 is fine i have one on mine and it is good my tunning guy tuned mine a little on the ritch side so that i was a little safer. he said i would loose a little power but it was a lot better than rebuilding a motor.

RE: NITROUS
Fuel requirements are (relatively) the same for any given horsepower level, whether its from a blower, Turbo or nitrous.. Remember, it's the fuel that makes the power, the engine just pumps the air for it to burn with. So the question becomes, will the stock fuel systems handle 425 HP? I think most would agree that it will, tho it's on the very edge of whats safe.

RE: NITROUS
Agreed, and as I said in the first post, you are getting CLOSE to starving the fuel railat a 125 shot. It also depends on the kit and the jetting. Some measure Fly/W and some R/W ratings. I am running a 100 shot Ny-Trex system andI am on the edge of fuel demand ability. Brenspeed will not do an e-tune for anything over 100 shot because of this reason. Iput mine on the dyno to be sure it was spot on. I have a fuel pressure switch that will kill the system if the fuel pressue drops below 38psi and I also run a wideband guage in my pillar pod so I am aware of the A/F at all times.

For the 125 shot you are going to need plugs and a tune. Now that is the absolute minimum you will need. I would definetly not recommend going this way.

Uhhhhh, I hate to say it, but Brenspeed does tune for 125 &150 shots---wanna ask how I know[8D]
Anyways, to the OP. I have a kit you need if you are interested in. Lots of upgrades & extras--just follow the link in my sig.
Colder plugs & tuning are necessary for 100shot +
Plus you'll start wanting to look at better tires
