Lot's of people do fill it all th time, but the nice thing is if you don't want to use it you don't have to, with turbo's or Superchargers you tend to get used to the power within a few weeks and then the car feels slow again, with Nitrous its not on all the time so the feeling of Speed when it is on last a lot longer.

Plus Nitrous Hit hard, the torque is amazing. I've seen Chris99GT smoke the tires though 1st and 2nd gear, it's Insane, and with his 150 shot now he's very close to the same speed as the Moddified Cobras around town.

I would Recommend only going with a 125 with some sort of aftermarket pump or a SVT foucus pump, Should put you in the high 12's for sure.

And you could alway Buy a second Bottle (or a larger one)

whats a bottle fill worth these days?
I pay 50 to 65 dollars for a refill.Never run out though don't use it constantly.The torquey felling is great.Just gotta get my driving with it under control when to hit it off the line and easy 12"s.

I've got the NOS dry kit and am pretty happy with it. It's designed for 99+ GT's with stock longblock & fuel system with the factory tune. All safety features built in. Car went 12.03 @ 116 last year with ET streets and I'm confident it'll go 11 next year. That direct port kit looks like the best kit out there and is adjustable to high horsepower but costs 3 times as much as a regular nitrous kit. I want to go blower with big PSI but I'm happy with this for now.

Your av makes me want to do jumps in my car. That is so awesome.


Oh yeah. What does just a simple dry Kit run these days? No direct port injection, or other fancy dancy stuff. Just the simple jet on the intake, bottle, solenoid, buttons, basic stuff.

You should be going high 11's no problem.

On my first pass with a bone stock... BONE stock motor with 8 degree's timing, cold nitrous sparkplugs and a stock T5 transmission I went 11.9 on the 150 shot ....

Are you on a street tire? Also, your MPH doesn't add up. Whats your setup?

I forgot to add that I had a stock ignition, right down to the coil and I was blowing out the spark crazy. Trapped 91 in the 1/8th mile though. Should be good for at least 115MPH on the 150 shot.

This was just on a 100 shot.M/T street radials.Gotta get way more aggresive with it.But think I may have the stock clutch going away.So have bought a new one and will see what happens in the spring.
