Any nitrous kit?

Are the nozzel settings for nitrous kits all the same? The fuel jet and the nitrous jets, are what I am asking about. I lost my sheet fot the nozzel settings. I have a Nitrous Express kit and would appreciate it if someone could give me the jet sizes of each horsepower shot.

1. 25 shot
2. 50 shot
3. 75 shot
4. 100 shot
5. 125 shot

I usually use 50 or 75 but I was just curious as to what they all were so I can change my shot. Thanks in advance.

It depends on the displacement of the motor that you use. It's all based on A/F ratios vs. nitrous flows. The best bet would be to contact the manufacture of the N2O system and they should be able to give you the info that you need.....

i was told by aa NX tech that a rule of thumb for nitrous, is that you can spray half the crank horsepower safely. like if your car has 120 hp stock, you can spray a 60 shot and it should run fine with no problems. of course it isn't the rule, but a decent way to measure. Now remember, this is measured by CRANK hp #'s. NOS is measured at the crank, while NX is measured at the wheels. just try to remember that.

No, NOS rates at the wheels not the crank.
