Looks great man! Z1 should sponsor your car with all those parts from them! :bowrofl:
Can't wait to see the NOS tank installed! I don't think I've ever seen a G with nitrous yet :JAMIN: How much nitrous are you planning on spraying? |
You've been very busy Lorentzoe, nice list thus far, keep up the nice work, and look forward to your wheel update when the time comes :)
BTW, that's one gigantic rotor lol https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...34ae5eb63.jpeg |

I'll be leaving it up to Jon at z1 to work his magic. Still deciding if I'm doing the window switch or the wot switch. I'm leading toward the wot personally |

Thanks for your help my cars really coming together. Can't wait to take it to the track and get a 1/4 mile run in before the nitrous install for comparison |
What's your impressions on the z1 intake?

This was before the z1 intakes. The sound is better with the z1. The k&n had a whistle noise to them I hated that |
Are you going with the Nitrous Express kit? 100 shot? I was going to do this, but I was;t able to find a tuner to tune it that felt comfortable. I hope this works out well for you We have a lot of the same mods.

Yes I'll be doing a 100 shot. I'll be putting in this stuff myself before I drop off car to save some cash. -one step colder plugs (maybe gtr? I think they might me not step cooler but if they are that's what I'll go with) -bottle warmer -blow down tube -remote bottle opener -purge -running whatever lines I can without actually hooking anything up lol Kit that z1 recommends is the zex kit for the 07-09hr. Honestly haven't bought the kit yet. I'll look into the nitrous express. Any major difference between the 2 kits? |
ZEX is solid. Nitrous express seemed to get better reviews when I was looking to do this. I hope everything works out well with your install.
|
Just wondering if you have had any luck with your Nitrous system. I have had 2 kits on my other cars but never pushed more than 100 hp on the highest which was on a 99 dodge dakota r / t with the 5.9L V8. I have always been told that basic rules of nitrous are around 30hp for every 100 factory hp was thought of generally safe. But don't like the idea of that much nitrous in a smaller engine even though the g37xs I have is rated for over 300hp and my dakota waz 250 but had 350tq. Just wanted to find out what the results are.
|
I backed out of the nitrous. I just did retune at z1. 321hp final number. Dyno sheet below
