Gauges, CAI, ECU/NCM, feet installed now...

My nitrous oxide system install is nearly complete. I need to buy a blow-off valve for the bottle, and receive/install my N2O pressure gauge, and I'll be good to go. I'm gonna wait until that's squared away before I go fill up the bottle. Saftey 1st...

I like the Cattman/Place CAI. I believe I have more low-end grunt, and the sound under WOT is sweet. The JWT upgraded ECU/NCM is working great. The car feels more peppy, even without the N2O on-line yet! And the gauges are cool. They're wired to dim with the cabin lights. The fuel pressure gauge and the EGT gauge seem to be working well, and they are easy to monitor in the dual gauge pod on my A-pillar. My new tires/wheels are working out fine. The ride is great. The tires are STICKY. They look terrific.

You only live once. Let the nitrous oxide flow!

JWT ECU? Doesn't that advance your timing? Wouldn't that be an issue running nitrous??

Oh, I see. Well that's pretty clever! Question: for nitrous setups like the ZEX, where the selenoid senses bottle pressure to regulate injector flow, is it possible to upgrade to a larger bottle by simply plugging it up or does it require another "control unit"??
