I've been waiting for you to get back online, how much was the kit? You running any kind of window switches, Bottle heater, purge, and remote opener?

The kit was 505 shipped from Injected Performance.

The E-boost 2 will be used as a WOT throttle switch and a window switch.

I will be running the Gen X 2 kit which is yet to be installed.

It includes the bottle heater, purge, bottle gauge, fuel pressure safety switch, and a few other small things.

Garrett,

Will you also need the remote control switch to open and close the bottle. Isn't it more dangerous if it is open at all times when driving around with it.

Yeah Marty is an awesome vendor. Awesome prices and fast shipper .

Not really, but in a sense.

If the bottle is open the solenoid is keeping the nitrous from flowing, but based on the design of a solenoid it's not going to open accidentaly.

I may get the remote bottle opener eventually, but they're kinda pricey.

By the way, did you merge the threads Luis? Just curious.

Thanks.

That's a pretty good price, so $500 plus $300 to install? I hate paying for labor, but on somthing like this I guess its worth it. Would I be able to use my UTEC to run the nitrous?

Can't you just leave the bottle closed and then open it when you know your going to use it? You don't have to keep it open 24/7.

on a 50 shot, a standard 10lb bottle will get 8-10 good 1/4 mile passes on my evo.

Have you ever tried a dry shot through the maf on the evo? That way the ecu adds the extra needed fuel? Thats the way I have always ran my dry setups. I did this on our last evo and it seemed to work good. I never got the chance to through it on the dyno and see how the afrs were, but I went from 106 to 115mph with a 60 shot on the same night.

If this is a good way to run a dry setup on the evo, then you can get compucars nitrous in a bag kit. Which is only $350 and takes less than 15 minutes to install and leaves no signs after you pull it out.

Next time out im going to try it on the 05. Hopefully the stock clutch will hold.

I haen't tried that. I wonder how consistent the maf metering would be?

I think if you were able to upgrade to like a GM maf this would work great as in the GM world you can spray a 125 shot premaf and it works awesome.

I've never heard of running it like that.

Interesting idea.
