Well, best of luck.

I'm not a fan of a used kit though

[DarkEcho]

i havent purchased it yet, but from the sounds of it, I am getting basically everything i need to go nitrous, and the switches to add safety.. he only ran two bottles through it also, shouldnt be a problem... where have you been dude?! and i tried IMing u but you never responded... i had to suffer and take Scotts advice... ugh... JUST KIDDING, thanks for all of the posts dude, i REALLy appreciate that you helped me through this thread. thanks!

ill have the money next week when my paycheck comes through and then im sending him the cash for the kit. as long as he doesnt forget anything then i should be ok. Cant wait to get the pics and post them so you guys can show me what he forgot to include in the package!! lol.....

oh and what size jet should i use with totally stock internals to stay on the safer side of things? all i got is a Whisper lid and slp loudmouth exhaust as far as "engine" mods...

36 jet = 75 shot
47 jet = 85 shot
53 jet = 100 shot

i wouldnt go with the 100 shot yet without a pump...i use one even on an 85

no higher than 75 for now.

Maybe contact tnt for confirmation of their dry kit jets

I only have wet kit jets

ok so im about to send this guy some cash for the TNT kit, hopefully everything will be smooth and hes not going to get all fraudulent on me haha.. he sounds like a realy cool guy and ive had some people tell me hes good for his word so i trust him enough to send him the cash.

Here are my new questions.

I am really paranoid about messing up my tranny or anything that would put me out of commision for a while, basically because my parents would get extremely pissed. So im going to do this (yes i know nitrous isnt safe and i should be doing it if im this worried but hey, shutup.) I have a window switch coming with the kit, so my question is, what rpms should i set it to if i DONT want to spray through any shift points? i have no clue what gear i should spray in or anything so, please let me know, i am assuming from what ive heard, that it would be best to spray during 2nd gear? if i dont want to spray through a shift, when should i set the rpms to shut off? thanks

its really hard in an auto not to spray through shifts...if you really wanted to do this..you would have to find out EXACTLY what rpm the car shifts at..and EXACTLY what rpm is drops to after a shift...then you can set the window switch to just above what the rpm drops to...and just below the rpm that the car shifts at...i have no idea what these points are...so i dont use a window switch on my car...i just have the WOT switch and spray through gear shifts...its never caused a problem for me...the only part of the tranmission i've ever broken is the mount due to the sudden increase in torque...but you can get a poly one from Energy Suspension for about $20 on LMPerformance.com [img]smile.gif[/img]

[DarkEcho]

can you still drive around with the mount broken?

[1DangerousV6]

yup...mine snapped in half a few weeks ago...the bolt still connects the tranny to the bottom of the car...but theres no rubber cussion between them anymore (thats what breaks..the rubber part rips in half)...so if you step on the gas hard you can feel the tranny bump against the bottom of the car...so if the mount is broken you just gotta take it easy...i ordered the ES poly mount and am putting it in wednesday...i've heard its very good and strong [img]smile.gif[/img]

hmm so its hard not to spray through shifts? how hard is it on the tranny? i mean, i have a shift kit (transgo) doesnt that help a little bit with the stress? so should i drop the idea of not sprayin through shifts? and then get a better mount incase mine breaks?

[1DangerousV6]

its hard on an auto not to...and i've been spraying on mine for years...my car has almost 90,000 miles on it and still the original tranny...i dont even notice it shifting any harder or anything while spraying...i'd keep your tranny mount for now...if you're really going to be drag racing the car...launching...running over a 75 shot...then i'd get an aftermarket one...but otherwise i'd keep yours for now...and if it does eventually go...then like i said...its no big deal...i've been spraying for like 3 years and this season was the first time i've had to replace it...but i drag race the car..burn out.. and have run up to a 110 shot [img]smile.gif[/img]

Nitrous.... to make it safer for the tranny...

Turn on at 3300 rpm's and off at 5800 rpm's

[DarkEcho]
