Any 6-speed guys? Pretty much everyone using the ZEX kit?

 

repost

 

 

I think I'm gonna do it.

 

I thought you were gonna sell your car?

 

13.25 @ 105.7


beat it, nga.

 

Nobody will buy it for what I'm asking so screw it... I'll slap a bottle on it.

 

 

Matt... I need the ZEX dry kit, bottle warmer, purge kit, and blow down tube. Anything else? Window switch maybe so I don't spray beyond the rev limiter?

 

yeah, I wouldn't recommend spraying past 7100 rpms.

 

~$8-900??

why dry kit instead of a wet kit?

 

Easier to install.

 

if your car wasnt a 6 speed and it was a auto you wouldnt need to the window switch right?

im assumeing the tranny shifts it for you no human error?

 

You don't want to hit the rev limiter while you are spraying.

 

Zex's control module should handle that type of problem and cut the nitrous.

 

So what about the longevity of nitrous. How does this affect the engine with continual use. By this I do not mean using it everyday and using an unsafe amount. I mean if you used it moderatly and used say a 65 or 75 shot. Does anyone know how this would where on your engine or would it be just like using a forced induction kit.

 

What's up Steve. I believe Mitch(acuracls6spd) has nitrous on his Cl 6 speed. I can't remember which setup he runs but I believe he ran some low 13s with his setup. He's the one with the red car with the carbon fiber trunk.

By the way, when I was running nitrous. I got my tank filled up at Speed unlimited but don't who else sells it.

 

The main issue with nitrous is the sudden burst of energy. yeah FI can normally give you around 40-60+HP, but smoothly delivered. Nitrous is a one time deal, once you press that button, you get 75HP instantly! That causes wear to your entire drivetrain as well as your engine components. If you moderately use it (a handful of times at the track a few times a month) it should not cause you any engine issues other than constant plug checks/changes. If you overuse it or over jet it, well, the sky is the limit with the amount of things that can break. I speak from experience :ROFL:

Sorry for the resurection.

Me, nukka.

 

I hate you! sik time..

 

you had to have an almost perfect reaction time.

 

Unless you run heads up, most strips will only start timing when you start going.

 

Reaction time has nothing to do with E.T.

 

how much are you asking for your car?

 

$18,500. It has 56k miles now.

 

if you meant 60', it was a 2.0, on 18" street tires.

 

2.0 is a sweet 60 foot time.



so did you ever strap the bottle

 

......




<------

Picking mine up tomorrow morning. Yeah baby! Zex 75 shot.

 

remember, nitrous is a drug.. use it wisely and with respect.



other than that hold on tight, 75 shot should feel great....... i hope you have some sticky tires

 

I won't be spraying off the line, and I have an automagic. Sooo.... I gotta be carefuler (shut up, i know it's not a word)

 

you probably wont be spraying in first at all

 

strap the bottle?

I sprayed in first as soon as I got traction. Spaying from 2nd only netted mid 13's if I remember correctly.

there's a thread in here somewhere that documents all of my nitrous runs.

 

Did you have a button, or the brain that did it all for you? I'm skurrr'd that since it's most likely a full-throttle switch, it may spray while the tranny is in neutral shifting gears and do all sorts of bad things.

 

14.10 @100.07 mph 241.1 hp 199.9 totque 13.51 @ 106.66 mph 75 Shot 291.1 hp 275.6torque

 

not you, strap the bottle aka hook it up in the car

 

if you have any doubts just get a button, or if you have the money get a window switch

 

What's that for?
