Ok, just out of curiousity, I am thinking of going w/ a 50-75 shot of nitrous instead of pullies b/c of engine longevity concerns, and i notice NONE of the tuners use NOS, they all use NX....why? Better quality? or is it that they make a kit for the L? Just curious. Also, what do i need besides the kit to upgrade to a shot that size? New Plugs? What else? Thanks guys

The NX kit is a wet kit so it injects nitrous and fuel were the NOS dry kits only inject nitrous. The NK kit is safer and also makes more power than the NOS kit. I would go with a NX but since you only plan to run a 50-75hp shot you could go with a dry system but if you plan to run any larger of a shot I would go with the NX kit. The NX kit with a 50hp shot on a L will make 66 rwhp and should give you a 4-6 tenths reduction on your ET's.

 

i here NOS will have a Lightning specific kit soon . I believe part # 5112 is it

 

The reality is that the L kit is the same as the EFI Mustang kits. When I bought my NX kit they were out of stock on the L stuff. The Mustang Kit bolted right up. I think maybe the only diffrence between the two kits is the L kit may come with a longer fuel line (fuel rail to selenoid) and the instructions contain jet calibration charts for the L not the Mustang. As far as I can tell with my the jet calibrations from the mustang work just fine.

 

I'm looking at buying an NX system too. However I have 2 questions. 1 in their catalog (NX) there are prices for racer and jobber. Now i think it's obvious what each means; however, what's the difference in parts. The difference for the Ford f150 package is $120.... QUestion 2.... WTF did you guys put your bottle? Any Pics?

Let me see? Where did I put those bottles?
Oh, yes I remember now!

 

man that's quite the collection of pleasure in a bottle.

 

I installed the same kit that So-Cal did for the mag. article
L vs the world. Very easy to installvery good instructions. I ran it at the track the next week.

Temp 55
Sacramento Raceway
Traction on the best day marginal
1st run ingaged after 3rd gear shift

2nd run ingaged after 2nd gear shift
13.0 1/4
3rd and last run of the day
ingaged just past first cone
12.6 1/4
I called So-Cal for jet sizes for 150 shot
67 nos side 42 reg side with a shim.

good luck it is mighty fun

 

What size shot were you running when you ran those numbers?
