Nitrous junkies!!!! Need some insight

[TimmyATL]

Ok so I was given a wet Nitrous that came out of a 3.7L Mustang. I have been doing some research and was wondering if a 35 or 50 shot would work with my set up. I am tuned on methanol. I want to use a progressive controller like Nitrous Express Maximizer 4 with closed loop correction option which lets me set air fuel ratio parameters and will pulse with modulate the fuel and nitrous solenoids to try and maintain the set ratio. Since I will have the effects of the methanol and the fuel being pulled from the stock system along with the cooling effect of the air charge with the nitrous. Air charge temp in the cylinders should be low to prevent knock. Maybe I am just crazy for wanting to do this. All advise welcome.

First off...I love nitrous and think it's a great idea!

Personally, I'd skip Maximizer.  I think it's great for more basic applications, but with our very sophisticated ECU attempting to do the same thing at the same time, I see the two just fighting each other.

Think of this...ECU wants richer so it gives more fuel, maximizer wants leaner so it takes away fuel via the soleniod.  Or vice versa.  Either way it leads to a car fighting itself.

I'd just hit it with the 35 wet and datalog it closely.  If all looks good, up it to the 50 shot.

Mike from ecopowerparts had nitrous on his flex. Hopefully he'll chime in.

I will PM him.  He's out of pocket for the moment.

75 wet shot works great, just use a window switch, throttle switch and fuel pressure safety switch. Pull fuel from the plastic to hard line joint by the passenger side of the engine bay. They have male to female quick connect with gauge ports that work great.

Be very careful with a wet system.  Make sure you use a window switch to keep the activation above 3000rpm.  Wet back fires SUCK

I have had plenty of those through the years.  Never hurt anything serious.  Not sure you'd even notice a backfire on a 35 shot.  Smallest shot I've ever had a backfire on was a 175.

Did you run that stock or tuned? If tuned, did your tune compensate for the nitrous? If not, which tune were you running when you did? Did you notice any AFR or fueling issues? I always wanted sneaky pete.. If you want to PM me the answers that's cool...

Thanks for the replies. I have read Mike's Nitrous post he did. I plan on having the Nitrous come on at 3200 to 3500 that is about when I am at max torque and also the Methanol will already be spraying.

A friend's vette recently backfired and burned to the ground with a 100.  It blew the intake part which severed the fuel line and the rest was a smoldering mess.

Sounds like a good time
