  • sneeky pete

    How would a sneeky pete work with a 3.8. It costs $210 from summit. Would it be worth it for a 10 oz. dry shot. I would get it just for the hell of it, but I just want to know if the stock injectors can provide enough fuel for a quick burst of just straight N20.

    Do a search, it has been answered. It works fine on a 3.8, your injectors will handle 100+ shot of nitrous, and if you want more from the kit you can modify it, me and judothrasher have both done that.

            I've yet to understand the facination of the sneaky pete system.
            Can I explain the system?
            It is a system that is intended to knock off .1 or .2 in the 1/4. It is just for that slight edge or for the stealthy racer at the track who doesn't want to be caught with nitrous on their car. Hence the name sneaky pete. The bottles (from what I'm told) will fit inside a roll cage bar. Completely hidden right?
            It has typically a small 10 ounce bottle which is too small with a very small jet. Sure you can put a bigger jet but the bottle looses psi when nitrous is used. With a 10 ounce bottle psi is lost quickly. All of our members stick with a 10 lb, yes 10 pound bottle. Sure some have 5, 12, or 15
            Will the stock injectors handle it? I've got a 120 dry shot with a 10 pound bottle and no problems here (except for the bigger injectors)
            Any nitrous system could freeze a maf, nitorus is cold, really frigin cold.
            Personally I wouldn't bother with the sneaky pete system

              You are probably right 12sec. Think about it $210 for the kit, and I'm sure you could install it in a couple of hours, if that. And even if you upgraded to a 10lb. bottle that's going to cost you around $200 plus all the plumbing. Now that's upwards around 4 bills. I know that I would just rather spend a $100 bucks more for an nx wet kit. [img]graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

                you got it all wrong with sneaky pete. i have never used it, but a guy at the track tried to sell it to me. you can install it in 30 min. when you are done with it you can even take it off and put it in another car like in no time. you can share it at the track and put it in while you are waiting for your next run.
                you put the tube in the intake and just hit the button when you want it. it has no BIG bottle, there is no upgrading to a 10 lb bottle. a quick little boost easily removed and hidden. the guy told me $400 installed but that is an overpriced performance shop price. buy it from summit, install it your self and shave .4 or .5 sec under $300.
