What make of solinods do you have?

0.016 jets x 4 ,,not sure but around 75bhp, not bothered about jet sizes as i can change them, just wondered what you nos becs reckon

You might not need a controller dependingon the additional power youre after.

If you have 300hp foggers, then youll need a controller and a new engine every dozen uses!

The Bergermans site is excellent, and has some great information.
Just remember, that Nitrous isnt flammable. The oxygen is added to the fuel and the nitrogen cools the mixture, so as long as you only use it at wide open throttle with the correct timing, it should be ok. Remember to keep it running rich as running too lean will cause excessive temperatures and pinking (detonation), which is something to avoid at 13000 rpm with Nitrous!

I would say Mark "Carnut" on here would be the best guy to ask,he ran nitrous on his MK Indy blackbird,it was a wizzard of nos kit with a progressive controller,I think he ran a max of 50bhp jets,with than he could run a 11.7 1/4,he was the fastest car on the day at the MK drag day,but it does put the engine under a lot of stress though,even if you use it just for quick 1/4 mile blasts,as this video shows on his what I believe to be his last ever run with the car,I think he has sold the car now,but I am sure he still comes on here.

cheers for the info guy's, they are nitrous express solonoids (nx) dont really want to kill the old bird, but could do with a bit more midrange onward's if you know what i mean.

on the nitrous solinode does it come in the side and out the bottom? or does it go in one side and out the other side?

i run a wizards direct port kit on my car with a controller ,mine runs 50hp jets with no problems ,you need a bottle pressure gauge and some way of heating the bottle to get consistent results. a 11b bottle will run for 2mins continous use .

Think i might have to remorgage for that kit,, but it could be worth it though .Found loads of info on burgermans site ,,cheers for the link,
