I wanna get nitrous
 

I am getting my tax return in for 1500. I wanna throw a little extra kick into the car. i got my tranny cooler being installed this week. i wanna add more. got any suggestions on what i will have to look for while intalling this kit. i got the ADTR intake,HF cat, catback exhuast, and tranny cooler. Got websites for best prices and need as much info as to the good and bad of this

zex makes a very nice system. but one thing i would suggest, get a little larger injectors, and maybe replace your fuel pump. you defintly dont want to run lean

yeah i am getting a fuel pump from my buddy's newly junked TSi. walbro pump

zex is definitely the safest and easiest way to go. sounds like you have the necessities. "do you know anywhere that fills bottles?" is definitely a question to ask yourself. go dry though, because fuel can be an issue with wet (make sure you use a higher octane).

also go 2 heat ranges colder in plugs too

I use sunoco 94 at all times.
thats good u brought that up. i was reading something on zex about colder plugs. can u elaborate this for me. i don't have any idea what this means

Cooler plugs help with detonation, you dont want the plugs getting hot and accidently firing early when running nos...baboom :shock:

when you use nitrous or a smaller pulley on a SC, this adds more oxygen to the cylinders. by doing this, it makes the plugs get hotter, if the plug isnt cold enough(meaning its ability to transfer its heat away from itself), the ground strap and electrode may start to glow. if this does, you will have detonation, ( the plug firing the cylinder before the piston is all the way to the top) trust me, you dont want this, its aways good to start too cold than too hot.

Just to throw numbers out, suppose your plugs are designed to run at 800deg and nitrous adds 300 degrees, well suppose their melting point is 1000deg, you're going to turn them into a glowplug and pre-ignition is going to happen. But then suppose you have the same 1000deg melting point and same 300deg difference but with plugs that normally run at 500deg, you'll be in the safe zone. Making sense? Of course these numbers are waaay off and only used to illustrate the point.

when read at first didn't get it but when read slower it makes sense. thatns for the help
