I'm new to the nitrous forum but not a newbe to this site. I actually got a lot of good advice about modding my car from you guys. Anyway I just recently got the NOS 5175 kit and I will be installing it this spring. I got my kit in the mail but I haven't even opened it yet but I'm itching to get at it. I also picked up a custom grind Comp Cam. Headers will be purchased very soon. Would you guys recommend an aftermarket fuel pump?

excellent! [img]smile.gif[/img] ..good choice..and it looks like you have the supporting mods for it..you'll want those NGKs just re-gapped at .035..what size shot are you planning on running?..right now i have the MSD external pump..its worked fine so far
pros: cheaper and easier to install..and you can have a toggle switch to turn it on and off
cons: not an option for a constant power adder and does not support as much as the Walbro 255lph intank (which i may have to switch to)
since you're going to have a cam..i would recommend the Walbro 255..also..depending on what shot you will be running combined with the cam..since you are going to be running a dry kit..you may want to increase the injector size too..let me know if this answers your question and if you have any others [img]smile.gif[/img]<b>12 SECOND DUAL STAGE DRY NITROUS POWERED 98 A4 V6 CAMARO<br /><a href=\"http://www.mysickcamaro.50megs.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.MySickCamaro.50megs.com</a><br />Best ET: 12.82@103<br />Best MPH: 104.7<br />Best 60\': 1.75 - Stock TC</b><br /> </font><blockquote><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">quote:</font><hr /><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Originally posted by Shodown:<br /><strong>1DV6 runs 12\'s...enough said. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\"> -
I was kinda leaning towards a Walbro 255 but I didn't know if it would be a waste of $ or not. I plan on running a 100 shot for now but I want to get all the safety switches first. My car is an auto so I don't know if I'll need the RPM switch or not but I will get the WOT switch. Actually I don't even remember what switches come with the kit.2001 FirebirdW68<br /><br />Whisper Lid; SLP CAI w/K & N, Flowmaster Am.

you will get a WOT switch and a fuel pressure safety switch with the kit..a window (RPM) switch wouldnt hurt either..its just added security..for running a 100 shot on top of the cam i would go with the Walbro 255 and increase the injectors..i would also invest the $20 for the energy suspension poly tranny mount since i can bet you'll go through the rubber stock one in no time [img]smile.gif[/img]<b>12 SECOND DUAL STAGE DRY NITROUS POWERED 98 A4 V6 CAMARO<br /><a href=\"http://www.mysickcamaro.50megs.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.MySickCamaro.50megs.com</a><br />Best ET: 12.82@103<br />Best MPH: 104.7<br />Best 60\': 1.75 - Stock TC</b><br /> </font><blockquote><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">quote:</font><hr /><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Originally posted by Shodown:<br /><strong>1DV6 runs 12\'s...enough said. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Comment
