sir, you need to do your hw.
Like I mentioned, read some of inaccurates endeavor's
He's doing a full meth setup, and knock sensors to eventually add nitrous.
Again, you need to do your HW.
here is a thread that Inaccurate posted and had the caption....If you really want nitrous....

Please, do your homework. there is a lot of info on this site.

My pet peve...... NOS is Nitrous Oxide Systems, a brand of nitrous.
You can run nitrous somewhat safely but you have to understand it and you have to use a good kit with all of the safety items.
Obviously a wide open throttle sensor, a window switch, a DBW compatable kit, safetly features such as nitrous solenoids won't trigger unless the fuel triggers first.
Keep it around 50hp. Nitrous will add instant hp and torque. If it's rated for 50hp it will add at least 50lbs of torque so keep that in mind. In other words it can produce higher cylinder pressures at the same hp level than the supercharger. If it's triggered too low in the rpm range, say 2,000rpm you could see a quick 200lb torque spike and a blown engine.
Use it for short bursts, not top end stuff. Run a knock sensor and AF guage. These are a minimum requrement to see what's going on. If you don't want to spend the money on these two things, you should not be running nitrous.
Jet it on the rich side at first and if needed lean it out in small increments.
You can add more hp but I would not do it without 100 octane unleaded in the tank for safety.
With the turbo TLs making 400whp on stock internals, there's no reason you can't safely make 350whp on nitrous as long as it's tuned well with no knock. But for a street car that you just want a little extra boost once in a while I would stick with 35-50hp.
It can be reliable but don't be cheap, don't take shortcuts, and don't get greedy with hp. And absolutely don't run a dry shot.

Why don't you search your own threads. You posted this a long time ago, remember? https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-performance-parts-modifications-112/zex-kit-692396/
You have a history of unanswered and incomplete threads on supercharging, nitrous, and that great "top speed" thread you started.. With your history and your attitude in this thread it might be best if you stop wasting people's time.
