Exclamation I put nitrous with the stock turbo

My stock turbo was a little maxed out blowing hot air at 42 psi. So because turbos are so dang expensive I decided to go the turbo in a bottle route. I know drive pressures are probably stupid high but oh well. It will be a good reason to spend the money if it blows.

I had a wet nozzle and a few nitrous solenoids laying around the shop, plus a few 15 lbs bottles so I had everything to do it already.

So because I had a wet nozzle for a gas motor I just used it as a dual stage dry nozzle. Spraying nitrous on both the fuel and the nitrous side. Drilled and tapped the stock horn and installed nozzle.

I found the perfect bracket on the brake booster to mount the noids. It is hard to see in the pic but they are well hidden.

For activation I ran both grounds through switches and the from the switches they both run to a wot switch I mounted on the app. I wanted it like this because I only had to run two wires inside the cab. Not too bad for two stages of nitrous.

I used two relays... I always use relays on nitrous solenoids. but I don't have any pics of the wiring.

As for the performance both kits have a .052 jet installed (100 rwhp on a gas motor) it turns out one kit was enough to clean up all of my smoke.

My best pass before nitrous was a 13.9 @ 100... I went to the track on friday night and the track was terrible... They did no track prep because they were waiting to scape it for a big race the next day.

I managed a 13.7 @ 106 chirping the tires HARD even shifting into 6th. On a good track a 13.5 would have been easy.

I had started to look for a set of wheels and tires, but I'm getting to itch to put my race car back together and fab 9's and jerico 4 speeds aren't cheap. So I'm going to focus on it now.

I don't think 45 psi is going to do it. I don't have the fuel to push it past that. We will see how it does on a little meth.
