remember, when you up your bottle pressure high, it makes the shot hit harder, so if your on the brink of being lean, you might not want a ton of pressure.


dyno for sure to see whats up, then maybe a tune

he told me that his plugs are gaped at .044., he could be getting spark blowout. I think he should re-gap to .035" and try it again at 950+ psi. If it still does it I'd get it on the dyno to see what's really happening.

Well, obviously not getting the required fuel there.
Stop running the kit until you can get some sort of A/F reading on it, or risk doing some serious damage to your engine.

Optimal Air/Fuel on juice is around 12:1-11.5:1
Off the juice you'd want around 13:1
But I can guarantee it's nowhere near that right now when you're spraying.

glad to hear your getting it worked out.



one of the goodthings about nitrous is you can take it away from the car for a week or two, and get use to that n/a feel again, then when you use the nitrous again it feels like a monster
