I've been considering for awhile now, to do it. How much nos do you believe a stock or nearly 5.0 handle? What would be a good set up?

Thanks :SNSign:

yes go with a wet set up. That way you are adding the extra fuel. Stay below 100hp unless you have upgraded your fuel pump. remember to tune it. retard timing 1 step colder plugs etc etc etc.

You will make more power then they advertise at your rear wheel.

I run a dry setup on my fox that is basically a full bolt on car with gears and a cam. I have a 100% stock fuel system and on a 75 shot the car is a beast and loves the nitrous. Just bolt it up and go. I recommend the DynoTune kit, ive had a NX wet kit and I like the DynoTune better.

I did a 125 wet shot on a bone stock motor, it was a hell of a lot of fun, your going to want to drive around spraying all the time though since the car is gonna feel like a dog off the spray on a stock motor.

I'm going to end up making this a garage queen in a couple of months, so that shouldn't be to much of a problem.

I had a NX wet kit on a honda.....DO NOT BUY NITROUS it is to addicting you will NOT keep your foot out of it. I repeat DO NOT BUY NITROUS.
But seriously, they should rate it by torque instead of hp. I had a 50shot on a civic and it gave me about 45whp but also gave me about 90wtq. It would be best to get it dyno tuned usually they (the manufacture) will say you need to jet it their way but is usually too lean, On my nitrous system I added 2 steps bigger on the fuel jet than recommended. You may make a little less hp but you will gain a lot more reliability.....my spelling suks.

I had a zex kit on my old fox. I believe it was a 75-125 hp dry kit. It worked very well for me. Everything was high quality in the kit and made great power right out of the box.

I have found the opposite to be true. Usally the manufacturer cautions on the safe side and you are running rich with there jetting. I run a wide band so that I can keep it from leaning out. Or atleast see if it is and then adjust.

A 75 shot with traction should get you 7 tenths! A 100 shot a full second!

I ran a 125 at the track with 12deg timming, 160therm, 2 step colder plugs and on 92oct. Ran freacking Awesome!!!! I would recommend 100oct though, but ran fine on 92. I run 75 on the street all day long without a problem, just gets alittle warm with too much for to long, just let here cool down. I also have a stock rad. too.
