Glad you got it worked out. I just read your other post about the show you were at and was going to ask if you ever figured out what was up with your nitrous surging. I've been following your results all along (as you may remember me asking about the kit) because I'm hoping to go with the kit in a bag as well. My only problem is I have a AEM intake with a conacle filter, and I'm not sure how I would "rig" the nozzle, since it has to be before the MAF right? I guess I'll have to put my stock air box back on huh? I was thinking maybe I could just put it in the end of the cone filter, what do you think? Do you have any pics of the nozzle, or could you describe how it mounts. I assume it is threaded and a nut goes on the other side???? Any other feedback on the kit would also be appreciated. Thanks, and I'm glad you got it sorted out.

Hey man, Ya I remember ya...I have k&N on mine and I just drilled a small hole in the end of it and used the compression fitting to hold it in....works great. Here is a link that I posted with pics of the kit. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...2&page=2&pp=20
You can see how I ran the small line in the k&n in one of the pics.

Still lovin the Compucar kit? IMO they are by far the best bang for the buck.

I went to mess around with my fuel pressure regulator a little, but i cant seem to find a bit to fit it. Where did you find yours?

THanks,
Ron

ya, The kit is awesome...great for the $! It is hard to find the fitting...I looked all around town for mine...I had to use one of my buddies that he used on his Turbo Buick. Jegs has them...I think it is a 1/4 npt fitting with a swivile. You can get it at this site too. http://www.jaysgn.com/inst.html#inst2

Do you need to be above a certain voltage in order to spray?
