Lol not yet, had a little technical issue first time we tried the nitrous. I got it set up and left the bottle open and line pressurized while we worked on some wiring. Well it pushed past the seal of the solenoid (turns out your supposed to purge the lines if its going to be an extended period of time) and when we turned the car on it immediately backfired so hard it took a chunk of the head off and blew a small hole in the intake manifold. Head has been rewelded but I havent had time to put it back together as ive been working alot and racing the GTR also. Hope to make an event in october and also world cup with both cars.

That sucks so much! Can you install some kind of pressure relief valve on the nitrous line to burp off the excess pressure above like 1200psi so it doesn't leak past the solenoid again?

Not sure, I will look into it though. I did swap the solenoids out for bigger better ones that should hold up better but the main thing is me properly using the nitrous and making sure if i am not spraying soon the lines are clear. Head is still sitting in my garage. Hopefully should get a break in work in a couple weeks which will give me time to put it back together and get testing.
