Ok, got NX solinoids with 48/30 jets for a 100 shot. Is this ok for a 4.8L.
Are relays neccessary on a simple setup like this with just fuel and nitrous solinoids, WOT switch, or just ground and positive ok. I plan on swapping the wot switch for a simple push button switch so that I can have better control on when it hits. For the fuel hookup on the fuel rail, where does it go. Is that the spot on the silver rail where you can pressure test it? Where does the nozzle go for a wet kit, before or after MAF being that it is spraying both fuel and nitrous. I would quess close to the throttle body but that could be very wrong.LOL. Anyone have some pics of nitrous setups so I can get a better idea of where everything goes.

48/30 sound close to 100 shot. Yes, you need to add relays, I believe the solenoids draw quite a bit of power. You do not want that much power running in between your on/off switch. The test port on the fuel rail is where you can tap for fuel. You need a valve stem tool to pull out the schraeder valve that is inside the port. That is like a 5 dollar tool. A wet nozzle goes AFTER the MAF, somewhere around 6 inches away from throttle body.

A few variables there...........what is your timing set at for wot? What octane are you running when you are spraying? On my 200 shot, I was running about 27 degrees with race gas and no knock. Doesn't work for everybody, but it worked pretty good for me.

Charlie is going to pull 3 degrees out of it I believe.

I wouldn't sweat a nitrous filter. I've been spraying for 5 years now without one and haven't had any problems. I've also installed countless nitrous kits without a filter with no problems as well. I'll check with my buddy.........he was selling his nitrous setup and may still have his bottle heater.
