Just picked up the nitrous kit yesterday. Install set for next wednesday, just in time for the gtg on the 15th. Went with a ny-trex, wet system kit. http://www.ny-trex.com/cart/index.ph...products_id=11
Going to start with a 50 shot and see how it handles it, hopefully going to end up with a safe 75 shot. Going to be installing a snow performance methanol kit at the same time and iridium plugs...that should wake her up a bit. Also, while she is at the shop, they will be measuring for a custom C.A.I. system and looking for a place to mount a new tank for the intercooler so i can separate the the coolant from the engine coolant. Now i just need to research the sprint boosters and new pulleys.

 

Well, just did a little research on the sprint booster...just ordered one from TVT Design. Hopefully it arrives by next wednesday as well, in time for the gtg.

 

Thats what I was planning on doing (nitrous ZEX and snow meth kit). Can't wait to hear how that works for you.

 

SWEET! I was gonna pick up a kit, but since I am getting an INmotion tune this week plus a couple other goodies I'm gonna see how close I can get to 11.9's without a pulley or the juice. I think these cars could go deep into the 11's with some juice on top of a pulley and sticky tires. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

 

How are you going incorporate the snow kit with the nitrous as far as routing. I wondered if putting a nozzle before the throttle body to help with cooling the supercharger and one in each intake manifold would be the best setup for the snow kit. But then what would be the best place to install the nitrous if I went with that setup? I'm clueless so your input would be grately appreciated.

 

let me know how that inmotion tune does...i was looking at those but was up in the air.

 

from what my installer says, for best results we are routing the nitrous to hit right before the supercharger and the methanol will hit after the supercharger. if i was only going to run the methanol, he suggested right before the charger, but since i am doing both, then he suggested this routing. i met with the guy from ny-trex yesterday and he supported the routing so thats the way we are going. during the install and of course afterwards, i will be taking pics and will give a detailed report of the set-up.

 

I spoke with the guy from inmotion yesterday and told him I was thinking of running the juice in the future. As I figured, with his standard tune N20 would not be good due to the advanced timing. He said he could pull some timing and richen up the tune for N20, but the car would not run good off the bottle. So I decided I'm going to try the standard tune for now. Bike Cop ran a 12.4 with an Inmotion tune and intake on stock all seasons. I will have a couple more custom mods over him, plus the ET Street, non radials(basically a slick). So I hope to run pretty good, but the track can be a heart breaker. I should have the tune in and ready to test by this weekend. I've heard that throttle response is improved as well and no need for the sprint booster, but l'll have to see for myself.

just added phenolic spacers from LET to the set-up as well.

 

Damn that sucks!

 

are you going to tune for the nitrrous.

 

yes...once all mods are installed, the tune will come

 

Tomorrow is the day she gets juiced....cant wait!

 

Could we have a new member joining the 500hp club?

 

just spoke with the guy from inmotion, and they offer a safe NO2 flash for our cars. might want to give them a call

 

Mutt,
Any updates? Do you have both installed or which one?

 

The nitrous system is hooked up. The methanol is hooked up except for the tank. I spent saturday fabricating a spot for the tank to install. The B&M line lock has all of the power run and the system is ready to install. We finally decided on a decent place to run the purge and got it installed. All of the switches are ran and have power to them. All of the switches are hidden except for one dual switch by the mirror adjuster which locks the line lock and also purges the system. While the car was down i had them hard wire my sirius, GPS and radar detector. I had a custom piece in the back made for the tank mount. One of the hold ups was the cold air intake system. I finally received it from BDJ and was VERY disappointed in the quality of the system. So much so that i ended up going with 2 drop in K&N filters until the shop can make a custom CAI. Unfortunately i have a $550 worthless CAI. Hopefully by the middle of this week, all will be buttoned up and ready to go. Of course i will have some pics to post.

 

Finally got the car out on the street...WOW...we started at a 75 shot on the nitrous and that was fun...but decided to bump it up to a 100 shot...we ended up using the BDJ intake after all, but had to hammer a couple of places to get it to fit properly. We also installed the jet on the bottom side so we had to flatten out a spot in the welded area. While everything was apart, we drilled/tapped the "Y" piece close to where we previously drilled it for the meth injection so we could get a boost reading. (gauge has not been installed yet, but we needed a boost line for the meth controller)

Instead of using the rubber connections supplied with the intake, we went to Lowes and got rubber plumbing connectors which come wrapped in a stainless steel case so the connections are pretty stout. We ended up using generic K&N clone filters until we can cross reference the K&N numbers. Looks way better than the blue foam/squirrel cage set-up. Anyone that is using the BDJ intake with the foam set-up-contact me and i will give you 2 new filters/cages. I also have a bunch of used wrap if someone needs it as well.

Still havent done the line lock yet-the traction control is kind of worring me that it might not even work, but i am going to try anyways. While doing the nitous install and the meth install i removed the 5 pieces of trim in the back and was going to have the dealer re-install when they fixed the cup holder, but they wanted $492 to install 5 pieces of trim, so of course i re-installed it myself. Dealer doesnt want to do the cup holder now because of the switches in the center glove box area. Monday i am picking up the bin replacement and i will do the install myself.

Thats about it so far. I still have some projects to work on:
rotex gold pads (looking for drilled/slotted rotors)
install the SRT guages
tint the headlites/taillites and side markers
Hook up the line lock
Still looking to build a better CAI system
hooking up some lights by the purge
back up camera/warning system
pulleys and a tune

I have been in contact with SCT tuners. They make tuners for the SRT-4, SRT-8 and the SRT-10, But nothing for the SRT-6, so anyone that has an SRT-6 PLEASE contact them and maybe they will get around to making a tuner.

 

What are you using to monitor air fuel ratio's and exhaust gas temp's? And is it 100% at wide open throttle or proggressive.
