[ktaylOR2012]

so start it off it has been a long time since i posted here so hi lol. but i never thought that i was going to spray the mustang but a guy is giving me a good deal on most of it i just have to buy a few things and not sure were to get it and what one to get. he is selling me the bottle,main lines and some jets the mount the full throttle switch and purge kit for $150. he says ill i would need to buy is the solenoids and shark nozzle. what i need help with is what solenoids and nozzle do i need to buy and the best place to buy them! also is there anything else that i will need to buy? PLZ HELP!

still have a 02 gt

Any solenoid will work, you can get $60 ones from Summit or more expensive ones from Holly or NX they all do the same thing. The nozzle is universal as well, Summit should have some. It sounds like the kit has pretty much everything you need to get started. I'd recommend a 255lph fuel pump, and a window switch but It's not necessary. Do you know what shot your going with?

i think i was just going to go with a 75 shot...how does the window switch things work

 

[bradfier]

Well a window switch controls when the nitrous will spray ie between 3and 6000rpm if it sprays before the velocity is great enough to carry it to the cylinders you can get a pooling effect in the intake manifold and may cause a nitrous backfire = bad! I would take your time and call around, call up nitrous outlet tell them what you have, and what you have in mind for your car, they will treat you good.

 

[ktaylOR2012]

well its only going to be spraying when full throttle

 

[bradfier]

Right, but if you spray at 1500rpm the air isn't going fast enough to carry it to the cylinders. You need to talk to someone who knows n2o inside and out, not just getting bits and pieces from a forum.

Honest suggestion... do a lot of research before you decide to spray. No offense, but if you don't know how it all works, you should not consider even putting a baby shot on your car.

Second honest suggestion... buy $150 used kit and risk getting defective or worn parts and add in the additional expense of getting the solenoids, nozzle, window switch, etc. and you could have bought a new, problem free kit with every nut, bolt and wire needed to install.

A properly set up car will run hard and reliably, but if you're unfamiliar with nitrous you are begging for trouble.
