Talking

the gauge i wanted and watched the most was fuel pressure gauge. that was the most crucial in my book. if you begin to lose fuel pressure then it will go boom. cammin got the rest.

Congrats You will love nitrous, I know I do
As far as an NX Maximizer or NOS progressive controller, I'm unsure but I don't think you should mix brands. I've read that using a NOS prog. controller with NX solenoids will wear out the noids prematurely because the NX noids are not designed to withstand a progressive current. Again, I'm unsure.

On a side note, I have a slightly used NOS progressive controller for sale if you're interested

Cammin pm me about the safety switch.

I know I'll be getting Dyno Tune bottle heater and opener.

The rest I will order cold fusion stuff. I hate having my credit card limit at $500 but it keeps things under control!

Chingon- I'll see how much I got left- Working on keeping this just shy of $1000 so I got $600 left.

I should also ask about the fire & ice. I live in 100 degree weather would the fire and ice keep it cool enough or just go with the dyno tune one?

Should I worry about a/f mixture= get something to read it or just go and dyno it?

I guess it is newer, I just worried about how hot the bottle will get if I actually wanted to use it during the day.

Ill tell you this much with a full bottle in the tool box of my truck in 105* weather in texas the bottle pressure got up to 1460psi the pop off valve is supposed to be good to 3000psi from what I was told just dont leave the valve open. I didnt know they made bottle coolers where can I find this setup you are talking about.

Actually You have that a little twisted.
THe NX solenoids use stronger coils than the NOS products.They do this so that there solenoids will open and close faster.This is also so that the solenoid can take more abuse.The NOS controller can not handle the solenoid amp draw.So actually its the NOS controller that will burn up.Now if I remember currectly you can use the 500 dollar NOS controller on a 2 solenoid NX system but not a 4.

The fire and Ice is a great unit for heating and cooling the bottle.However if you are dealing with the outside weather elemnts I suggest running a thermal jacket also.

Nitro Dave
Can outside temp (in a truck bed or tool box, etc) heat a bottle to enough psi to blow the 3000psi valve?
Thanks
