looks good from what i can tell. i'd recommend zip tying the nitrous/fuel solenoids to something so they're not bouncing around while you drive, which might make the lines come undone.

Im about 5 miles away from edelbrock. they already know me + The guy at edelbrock gave me his personal card. If anything goes wrong, edelbrock will replace for one year. ANyways, Im running hella good with 80 shots of nitrous. I love it!!!!!!!!!
After first bottle, I now conserve the nitrous because being trigger happy wastes money. Mostly when nitrous doesnt need to be used.

Blah, my engine is hella dirty. I need to clean the engine first before any other mod.

Its fun to see a spec-v with intake and a prelude lose to a civic. I/H/E si is no match now. I raced my friends 04 tc stick shift. I gave him a head start and still burned him. Not that scion tcs have that much power, but it does have 32 more stock horse.

that nitrous jet is for the 40hp shot, not 80. which is GOOD, i was wondering how you were running around w/ an 80shot spraying all the time and not blowing your motor.

that fuel jet is too big, which is why you are running rich. do you have a .017 or so jet?

bleh. Only jetting sizes I got was .024 .025 .026 .026 .028 .030
I'm using the max which is 80 horse.
BTW Edelbrock recomended me to start with 40 horse at first. But he also said, if I must run 80 go for it. All he said was, "DO NOT GO OVER 80 shots".
The thing is, how can I when there is no more jets for this car.

Im not running rich anymore. After I got the pressure gauge on, I only spray when the botth is around 12-14 which is in the yellow or greenish zone. That is when I run perfectly fine. Its better to use my nitrous on a regular sunny *hot* california day than a winter day. Which is why I cant wait til california gets hot. I always thought california weather was too hot, but found out thats its actually the best time to use my bottle.

no, you're not running an 80shot. an 80shot would be more like .042nitrous/.23fuel. and yes you are running rich, maybe not pig rich like when the bottle press is down but still rich.

To see for yourself, here's a calculator i like to use:

also, im not getting any more symptoms of richness. Before I would have to rev the shit out of my car in order to get the excess gas out after shooting nos. Before, my car would die if I dont rev it when car is off and turning on. Before, it didnt seem like enough nitrous. Now that I only spray at green, I feel 3x the power of before.

how does this say 80hp??
The Fuel jet size should be 0.017" or 0.443mm
A Nitrous jet size of .030" or 0.762mm should produce:
40.65 HP with 1 port(s)
Actual HP to the wheels: 34.55 HP


Your car doesnt have to run weird when its running rich, when I installed a 190lph fuel pump my fuel pressure went up about 4psi enough to drop my gas mileage by 4-5mpg. I was running rich, but the car didnt run weird at all.

ill scan the fucking manual and prove to you that im running 80 shot.
If im running 40 shot go blame edelbrock. I just followed their instructions and provided materials.
From reading the manual over again for the 100th time. Im running 80 hp. It ma y not be 80 but can be 90 or even 70. Its pretty accruate though. Ill scan the manual today for you. There is nothing else I can do. Im using the highest setting of nitrous and highest setting of fuel. THis is what ed elbrock told me to run

you have one port. the nozzle that you attatched to your intake is the nozzle/port. the only reason you'd have 2 or more is if you were running somekind of dual stage setup, or a direct port setup.

please do scan that manual so I can see what your seeing.

no holes are drilled to the injectors. the kit came with a rubber hose that makes fuel run of the injectors through the solenoids. the only holes are in the intake rubber peice

so i've been doing some research on your "80 shot" and found what i think you're looking at:


which doesnt even have a jetting for an 80shot..

also here's what most normal kits call for jetting sizes:




notice how they all start in the .03x's?

I emailed edelbrock about this and its been several days and no response.

If you want to prove me wrong, go to a 1/4mile track and make a few runs off the nitrous and a few more on, and post up your results.

oh and the charts are for the NOS, NX, and Zex kits-in that order.
