Anyone running it? Heard of people running it on the ca18? Any success? What to use for a nice tune?

Thanks.

(Fast and furious jokes welcome haha)

Probably need a nice stand alone ECU system with configurable inputs to register the NOS button activation so it can trigger suitable timing/fuel maps. You could also set it to trigger based on RPM, gear, etc.....so......say...at 6krpm in 4th gear it would spray.....for example.

Depending on what you want to use the nitrous for (ie laggy turbo or top end punch)...

I am using nistune for my management at the moment, this may change if required but I can use multiple maps and I have a carpc for data logging..

With my build, I have gapless rings but oil ring required gapping to suit up to 125hp shot depending on what jet size it will use..

If you have the ability to swap maps it will be easier...

In short, nitrous is awesome. Use it.

I would say a laptop/carpc for data logging would be good... don't want anything to happen resulting in DANGER TO THE MANIFOLD!!!

Ive heard when you use a 100 shot of nitrous you run the risk of blowing out your total toolbag diamond plate floor pans too. Just a thought.

i have a NOS energy drink bottle drilled and fitted with a 90° bend nipple hooked up to my radiator overflow thingy (didnt wanna use nipple again...two nipples and two headlights on a car sounds funny bizniz)

boosts me 80hp per shot.
