i am installing the nx wet kit with a friend on tuesday and was wondering if there is anything I need to do to my car before i do. Things I have already done:

-New spark plugs NGK BRK5E (these the right ones?)
-New fuel filter
-Oil change

car is a 99 with 44,000 miles. I am only starting out at a 35 shot. thanks.

 

If you have not already, purchase an EGT gauge and a Fuel Pressure gauge. You will wantto bump up the shot.

The miscellaneous things I needed were:

Additional wire
Male and female butt splices
Drill to mount the nozzle
Copper plugs, one step colder
Soldering iron for better connections.
Scout out a place to mount the solenoids
Take your time, the first time you install the kit it may seem like it is pretty involved however, it is pretty straightforward. Give yourself a good day to install it so you can take your time.

If you do get a Fuel pressur egauge you will need ad'l fuel line as well as some assorted brass fittings found at your local Home Depot or hardware store.

Also, I would go to the NX site and print out the instructions there as they are better than the instructions found in the packaging.

Also, look to get a bottle heater and a purge valve.

Any other questions please post.

I already have egt guage and oil temp guage. I will be purchasing a fuel pressure guage very shortly. would I need a mechanical guage or electrical? I bought the kit used, only a few weeks old, used once. the person who had it is helpinbg with the install and he has done it before.

 

let me know how the install goes...

my nx is sitting in my room. if you take pics during install, plz share with me prophetmb@yahoo.com

thanks.

 

i will take pics, send em to you on thursday

 

For the much smaller shots a A/F is better than EGT. But it's best to have them both for the bigger shots.

 

egt and a/f is ghey. I have both. I would rather save my dough, shell out a few more and get a wideband or a greddy egt. Ugly, but accurate as *****.

 

I have both and from what I have seen it's best that way. The A/F gives you the very quick readings and the EGT gives you the longer term readings.

 

Thats true, but do you get signal after 3400 rpm with the a/f?

 

do you need an air flow when running a wet shot?

 

I get readings at all RPM.
