Which Jet sizes to use?

Say if I wanted to try a shot between 50 and 75 with the an NX kit what size jets would I need? Say for a 60 or 65 shot? Thanks for any help!

I see in your future, a DEAD engine. Are you still using that nitrous everyday?

nitrous isnt that bad if used correctly. its the people that become addicted to it and spray lots of times everyday that get f**ked in the *** eventually.

That's exactly what he does. He had a post about it a couple of days ago. He goes through a 10lbs bottle a day.

LOL [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] , Ive used 2 bottles so far at exactly 1 week apart spread both bottles over two days. The spark plugs look excellent and the A/F is on the rich side so Im not all that worried about causing any damage.

it sounds like you might want to ease up on the usage but for jet sizes if nobody replies calling NitrousExpress would probably get your questions answered

Just wondering has anyone that says its bad to spray or bad to spray often had nitrous? just wondering. If the car is running fine you can run it all day long. Its like telling me not to boost my turbo. If ur a/f mix is fine your plugs are fine and ur fuel pressure is fine. Ur car is fine!

"o i better not get into boost to much it might blow it up."

Thats bullshiat. you gotta remember nitrous is just adding cold air and gas. Stop being poo_c's and stop acting like you know what your talking about when you don't. Nitrous/supercharger/turbo all work the same adding air and you need some sort of system to add fuel. A super charger is on all the time do you see ppl not turning there car on because its going to hurt the engine? Think before speak about something you don't know about.

i bet his clutch goes first, but that comes with adding power to the pos stock clutch. I still don't think spraying is bad despite what u think.

I agree patrickB, Nothing is going to "blow up" if you have enough fuel. The horror stories you hear about n2o are morons that run lean.
If your spraying while lean or if you hit the rev limiter, your going to grenade your parts. What you need to worry about is your clutch (mainly) and yer axle's (eventually). Keep sprayin...

on the card I have a 50 shot is 35/20 and a 75 shot is 41/24 so my guess would be a 38/22

anyone know what to do if you are running lean? I only have a 50 shot installed and noticed I run lean when using the nitrous (it is a nx kit)

you need to increase the fuel in the air to fuel ratio. I'm guessing you are running a dry kit.
