Nitrous Kit Build. What I have and what do I need?

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 05:27 PM

This is what I have so far. At this point I'm deciding if I want to build this kit, or sell and purchase a full kit. Either way, I still need to know what else I need, rpm switch, wot switch, etc. I have seen kits for sport compacts, then I have seen kits especially for drive by wire. I have never played with NO2 so this is all new to me and I appreciate any help.

Bottle, bottle bracket, and some plumbing. Says 10 lbs of NO2, 15 lbs bottle, total weight 25 lbs. I'm assuming this means it is a 10 pound bottle.

I think this is a safety valve (pressure release valve) but I am not sure.

More lines, fogger nozzle, and T'd line for fuel.

Filter maybe?

Fuel, NO2, and purge solenoids.

Two switches. I'm assuming one to arm and the other is a wot switch?

And what ever the fuck this is...(there are two of them)

The white plug in the pic above plugs into the thing...

From what Justin told me this was on a Mustang before he bought it. I'm just trying to justify keeping this, or just buy a new kit and sell this one.

So, that's what I have right now, what else do I need?
-Bottle warmer
-fuel pressure safety switch
-Progressive Nitrous Controller (If I want to do a progressive set up)

**will edit the needed list as I learn more things that I will need**

Nice, bob, greg, pat or barry are about the only guys I know who would be able to help you. Lol

particularly if not versed in nitrous go with a kit specific for your application. imo thats the best way to get into nitrous. safest, easiest, and in the end less expensive.

That NX kit you were looking at was sweet. Buybuybuybuybuy.

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 06:46 PM

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 06:51 PM

Found this, supposedly Nissan specific...

Amazon.com: Nitrous Express 20716-10 35-150 HP Dual Nozzle with 10 lbs. Bottle for Nissan / Infinity: Automotive

or this which is drive by wire specific

**littleredmachine** · 10-09-2011, 06:52 PM

That's for v6's. That's why it has d-blocks and two foggers.

That'll do. I *think* summit might be a couple of bucks cheaper, but yeah, that's it.

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 06:56 PM

Amazon.com: Nitrous Express 18959 NX Digital RPM Window Switch: Automotive

Is this the same as the rpm switch that is included in the drive by wire kit?

*I use Amazon to find stuff then when I'm ready to buy I google search the part number to find good prices.

**littleredmachine** · 10-09-2011, 06:59 PM

I'm partial to the NOS one, only because that's the one I'm at least familiar with. Plus, with that one, you can go direct port later on.

EDIT - this one: http://www.amazon.com/NOS-15974NOS-2.../dp/B000LWID7Y

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 07:03 PM

I'm not partial to brands yet. So if NOS is recommended over NX I can go that route too.

Amazon.com: NOS 05134NOS Universal Drive-By-Wire Wet Nitrous System - 4-6 Cyl.: Automotive

NOS version of the drive by wire kit.

**littleredmachine** · 10-09-2011, 07:04 PM

Sorry, meant the NOS progressive controller. I ninja edited my last post. Pretty much NX kit with the NOS controller.

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 07:08 PM

and

http://www.holley.com/15974NOS.asp

I'm leaning towards the second

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 07:14 PM

According to the features on the mini I won't need a separate wot switch or window switch.

**littleredmachine** · 10-09-2011, 07:15 PM

That's what I tried typing in the chatbox on AS earlier. Sorry. lol

It's really cost-effective to get the NOS one so you can d/p the bitch later.

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 07:18 PM

So the NX drive by wire, the NOS mini 2 stage, bottle heater, and purge set up.

What about a bottle pressure gauge?

I can already see direct port and a progressive shot coming soon.

I will try to pick up another intake manifold so I can drill and tap it then just throw it on the car.

**littleredmachine** · 10-09-2011, 07:20 PM

I have a really nice Cobalt gauge http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ATM-6174/

I really recommend doing an in-cabin setup. There will be a sender on the bottle and you run the wire up to you. It makes it convenient knowing how much you have cold and what the pressure builds to after you have heated it.

**willms81** · 10-09-2011, 07:24 PM

I agree. The gauge will be mounted somewhere where I can see it from the driver's seat. I don't see the point of it being on the bottle. I won;t be able to see it when I'm using the system.
