Ordered My Nos System Today
#1
I know that this one of the most arguable topics, but here it is. I ordered a NOS brand system from Summit today and talked to a guy that works in the tech dept., he was glad to visit with me as he has a 87 GXL, if I understood him correctly, he has the same kit on his car and loves it. I also talked to the guys a NOS in Cali, they say the kit for my n/a was designed for near stock applications, which mine is except for the exhaust. I checked around and this same kit sells for 700.00 at a local shop, I got it for 507.00 shipping and all. Thing is, the shop wanted over 300.00 to install, I plan to do that myself, has anyone purchased this kit, and have you installed it. I am looking for all the information I can get before I get the kit.
I know that some of you may say, "Good bye to your engine", but all BS aside, What do you think? The kit should be here by the middle of next week. Thanks for all of the information you can provide. The guy I talked to at Summit will be getting on this site, because I told him I have never seen the wealth of information you people can provide, and like me, he cant find anyone locally that can help him with his ride. Look for his car on the next Sport Compact catalog from Summit.

Wet means that the NOS is injected directly in the manifold at the same time the fuel is. Dry means the NOS is injected into the intake before the mainfold then atomizes before it reaches the fuel.
And my mistake, my system will be a dry system, as my car is N/A. NOS recommends a wet system for higher HP engines, such as Turbos and Supercharged applications. NOS only makes the engine use more fuel and is not a fuel itself, and on dry applications, it cools the air coming into the manifold by as much as 75 degees. I am only quoting the information I have read printed by NOS on thier website. More to it than I thought.

The problem is i cant see the problem. Every one talks about how bad nitrous is for a rotory but why? I had a zex kit on mine until i took my car apart this winter for all my new mods and had no problems showing up on the dyno. Im now putting a wet system on my car to put a more eficiant 55 shot to it. Alls you are doing when you use nos is cramming more oxygen into the combustion chamber so if you have plenty of fuel and spark to compensate for the addded oxygen then whats the problem????? I keep hearing you guys say it gums up on the rotor "huh" can some one please tell me were the gum is coming from cuz again it is just oxygen? Granted there a couple different chemicals in there but its basically Oxygen that is very cold...........
