might be a little high - i'm including all the factory switchgear including the paddles, and the cost of an install shop for the custom work. i'm big on a super clean install.

can't wait to see this install!

Here are a few teaser pics. NX decided to send me the jets for a V12 BMW motor with fuel pressure at 50 PSI which were much too large for the simple 75 shot I was looking for. I am waiting on the new jets and I should be good to go.


BTW, yes, I know my trunk is filthy. I'll clean it all up when i'm done ^^

I've heard the NOS is only suggested when the engine is running full bore at WOT.
Simple WOT runs with my car now quickly go from innocent to highly illegal (In about 5 seconds to be exact)
Just where on earth do you plan on playing with this?!?

The way I see it, I have the car balanced out pretty well so far. The only thing it really lacks is that umph down the drag strip. As some of you guys know, my car is the test mule for all GT SPEC products for our cars so the car has every single brace known to man on it so it handles pretty damn well. The NX is strictly for the drag strip. I want an all around car that can Auto-X, go fast in a straight line, and look good while doing it =)

As far as the settings for the NX, 4 conditions must be met before Nitrous is sprayed.

1. Open Bottle
2. Switch in the ON position
3. Wide Open Throttle
4. 4200RPM - 6800RPM Window

I have not yet decided if I was going to lock out first gear since it's such a long gear and the time spent in first gear is pretty substantial in a 1/4 mile.

The jets are still not here so I still haven't been able to complete the install, but I do promise Dyno runs and a 1/4 slip/video as soon as possible.

Aeson, I was hoping to check out your car at OCC tomorrow, but it looks like I won't be able to get the car done in time. I'm still waiting for the paint to dry on my RavSpec Front KS style lip.

For those of you that haven't seen the car yet, here is a little picture taken from last year:



This is a video of my car running at Raceway Park: 14.1 - Bone Stock Engine. Bald Tires =)

You missed a great time, but the good news is that we're gonna have another one in the fall. Cancel or complete all paint projects before then and you should be good to go.
If one more guy told me that my car needed a drop, I was gonna kill someone. I was very very close to the Eibachs until the coilover thread came out for the X models. I'm thinking $1000 for coils is better than $600 for the Eibachs, so I may go that route instead. I doubt I'll have it done in time for the fall OCC meet though, so I'll still be rolling "donk" then.
My car's gonna look sad sitting next to yours
