Is the bottle pressurized?
|
pressurized???? what do u mean??? i got a 10lb bottle the blue one
|
Do you have a bottle heater? When you ran the 75 or 100 shot shot was it in warm/hot weather and this 125 in cold winter weather. If so your bottle is way below proper pressure for nitrous to work properly it needs to be between 900-1050psi (depends on Manufacturer)?
|
well the bottle was fresh from the shop from refil......when the bottle was at 75 and a 100 shot it was in my trunk for at least 2 1/2 hours before using it...its normally at 900psi....when i ran the 125 it was feeling like it was too rich....
|
Let me ask you again, how was the weather during each run and what was the pressure. Cause in warm / hot weather my bottle by itself is at 800+psi but in cold weather its in the 5xx. Maybe it was not upto pressure?
|
even on a full bottle, in the summer, with only a 75 shot, using a bottle heater made the difference between night and day for me. U gotta have a bottle heater kit, no questions asked to run a shot as big as 100 or 125 - i say you should have one for any shot.
|
well my pressure was at 900 psi...and when i ran my 100 shot it was the same
|
do you have a Fuel pressure gauge and adjustable Fuel pressure regulator
with the walbro your fuel pressure will be higher than stock which will cause you to run rich. it raised my FP to 53psi i would use this nitrous jet calculator http://www.robietherobot.com/NitrousJetCalculator.htm it says with 43psi fuel pressure you should have an .032 jet but with 53psi you should have an .030 jet but you need to check your fuel pressure to be sure |
It definitely sounds like you need to lean out your jetting. The leaner, the more power. But you need to make sure you don't cross the line to much, or you'll smoke a ring.
|
thanks for the help...i try it out
thanks, russell |
whats the stock psi for my car????
|
