ok this is what i am currently running. SPS64/14, edge DRAG box, 170hp sticks, ported polished head with studs and o-rings. how much will i benefit from adding nitrous to this setup. i mean i dont have a HUGE trail of smoke with the new turbo but its a pretty good trail. i took the HRVP off and its going on another truck so my setup listed above is pretty much it besides tranny, intake and exhaust. what do you guys think in my setup. Nitrous or Water-Meth. lookin for most HP.

 

nitrous, start with a small jet and work your way up.

 

talk to jetpilot possibly, he has helped alot of guys get some nice nitrous set-up working...

our last dyno event he was helping with 2 trucks in the 780-790hp range...both 24v's

also, just add nitrous until it starts to pop like a AK47 going off at WOT and lift the head, then turn it back one notch LOL

 

sweet thats what i am going to do. from what i have listed, do you think its possible to gain 100hp

 

Taking this back to top, I'm interested in seeing how it turns out.

 

well my sig has changed a little as far as fuel boxes and such and i am takin my truck in next week to have a 3 stage kit put on at Browns Diesel.

 

inline6power and CTD_Neil:

I realize this thread is a little "old". CTD_Neil, you had a good thought on bringing back to the top if you are interested in the power gains from NOS.

There is no doubt that Doug Smith (Jetpilot) is VERY good at setting up the NOS systems on the diesel trucks! I watched him a few years ago at "Thunder in Muncie" run a 12.1 at 121 MPH with his old 2001 Dodge CTD 24valve which at the time had a Edge Drag Comp., a single 1st Gen "B-1 Turbo",
very large BD-5's (later to the 8's) and a full DTT Tranny. Now, 12.1 may not sound like much, but back then that was pretty fast.

I wanted to let you know that as far as a whole NOS System, it does not take much to get near 100 H.P. My son, John Jr. (banshee) is running a simple "NX Express" System on his 2004 Dodge CTD CR and is running one solenoid, with two (2) nozzles using a Hobbs Switch and with small jetting (about a 55 shot between the two) he sees 85 RWHP from his system! He also runs a bottle heater but besides that, that is it. I don't believe he has over $500.00 in the system either!

Hope this helps you guys some.

Sorry to waste your time!

You posted before I got my message on there for you!
Good luck with the new NOS System.

not wasting my time at all buddy. only should cost me about 300 hundred bucks for the whole thing as i already have most of the parts. i have a sandrail that has a 2 stage kit on it and i am going to rob all the goodies, soliniods and such. only reason for going to a 3 stage is to get the FULL intercooler effect as well. going to put a nozzle on the pipe from turbo to intercooler, then a nozzle from intercooler to intake horn, then one in the manifold. i have been told this is the best setup becuase you get the best power with the best cooling effenciency. just what i have been told and guess i really dont need all that much if i am only lookin for 100hp.
your son is runnin a single shot, is he spraying the entire 1/4 mile? sorry so long

 

For someone running a single nozzle, is pre-intercooler the best spot?

 

inline6power:

Sounds like you are on the right track with your plans! As you pointed out, a "single stage system" can get you to where you want to be for sure.

You asked about my son's set-up. He is running a single solenoid, but with two (2) nozzles similar to the set-up you described. And yes, he has his NOS System on the whole length of the 1/4 mile!

Either there, or in right in the air horn.
