Nos

[scotty11811]

Anyone run Nos on their Alero's? If yes what is needed??

[Redog]

NOS, you mean New Old Stock parts?

Yeah I just found a PS Pulley on eBay because I read all the Doman ones were crap. Sat in a Dealership in Utah for about 5 years before I got my hands on it.

However, It's easier to find NOS Parts for the Alero than my Delta, since my Delta in 27 years old.

Nothing's really needed, just pull the old part off, and swap on the NOS part. Same bolts, no mods required

Considering we are not ricers on here, this is the answer you're getting

it is called spray or nitrous and yes sleepyalero is using spray.

Somebody was watching the Fast and the Furious last week on TV

You do realize that NOS is the name of one of the companies that produce nitrous kits for cars.

I remember somebody on here put a 75 shot on his car and was throwing it in our faces that his car was soooooo cool and wasn't having any problems that we said he would have, then, he stopped posting althoughter. I wonder why

[spc2125]

what are the potential problems with having a wet/dry nitrous kit?

i bet that would be a blast to use though on a straight-a-way... on a closed track of course

I love NAAAWWWZZZZ It makes me go like 1000 MPH!!!!

Don't forget the stickers add 25 HP each.

did you know that kleenex is a brand too? yet most people call any facial tissue kleenex..

still, NOS really annoys me.

if you have to ask, you aren't going to be doing anything like this safely for a while

i have a system, currently set up for a 55 shot, its a zex dry kit. i have switches made for it and everything but will be installed after march 9th because im waiting till the 6 speed is in.

people prefer wet kits over dry. wet kits give you a little more power then dry. all you need to do is buy a kit and its really universal install. i also have a bottle warmer for mine. they help but you have to watch the pressure in the bottle. the max is like 1000-1100 psi. any higher then you could have potential problems.

if your running an automatic car, its not safe to run spray under 2500 rpms. and around here, to fill a 10 lb bottle its about 50$ and it lasts like... 13-16 1/4 mile runs.

but yeah, ill be installing mine in a couple weeks and will have a post about it so you could look at that for referance.

Wet is preferred but boost is better......

i agree rather build the engine and boost.

[sleepyalero]

my plan is spray for a little bit, but plan on building the car, and my new motor wont have spray after the build. just boost.

I was thinking the same thing when I started reading reading this.

[sleepyalero]

you also need to run a step or two colder spark plugs, ive got 2 steps colder.

[guiguilandry]

you also have to alter the timing when on nitrous... don't forget that... and also wet is safer than dry....

[sleepyalero]

that too.

NOOOOOOOOSSSSSSS! RUUUUUUUN! (car blows up)

[Redog]

I believe there are 3 types of spray,

Dry, which is the easiest to install, but hardest on the engine
Wet, which is a bit more difficult to install, but a little bit easier on the engine
direct port, which is very difficult to install, requires plumbing, drilling and so forth, but is the safest bet for the engine.

If you though ou were just going to go on eBay and buy a kit for $100, slap it on the car in 30 minutes and go smoke Corvettes, it's just not going to happen

Proper timing and fuel delivery are key. Running a little 50 shot would not be too bad at all. When you get into the 100 and 150 area is where you would really want to invest in a wet kit. With a 50 shot you only need to pull 2-3* and use a Wide Band to set it up. I do recommend the Zex kit over them all. At least with Zex you get that module that actually monitors your fuel delivery and if you go lean it will shut the system down. The safest one I know of as far as a dry kit goes. I had this kit myself a few years back, sold it to a Mustang guy that has been using it for years now and he's still running strong with it. Again though, it's set up right....

Direct port nitrous injection and a standard loan fuel management system......not a bad way to spend $30,000
