Alot of people seem to be complaining about small lines, small T fittings, stuff like that, what HP levels are the lines that come with the "All Import Stage 1" kit by NX good up to?

'Bout 35 hp..... Don't use it - build one with 5/16" - 1/8"NTP adapters.

Something like this:



Of course, this is for a dual-stage NX, but you get the idea. The parts are cheap and most hardware stores have it all....

I need to do this, can you explain exactly what you need to buy for a single stage NX kit, i did notice the given piece was osmewhat small too.

Thanks,
Alex

Absoundlab has it right for a single-stage setup. You need one brass T-fitting with all three openings 1/8 NPT. The center opening gets a 1/8NPT-4AN fuel fitting and both ends get 5/16"-1/8NPT barbs. Cut the fuel line, insert the barbs into both pieces of fuel line. Use hose clamps to secure them. Use a little Permabond on the 4AN fuel connection and screw it into the center hole. Attach your 4AN fuel line (already connected to the fuel solenoid) to the 4AN connector. Start engine and check for leaks.

This type of setup has much bigger internal passages than the NX-supplied T-fitting, and makes for a better installation - it will flow well enough for a 100-shot, if you feel the urge.. .

anything bigger than 100? I'm definetly feeling that urge, this is pretty much a drag only car, lol, POS i bought for 500 bucks to show off what nitrous can do, friends are a bunch of doubters

So this isn't such a pain ??

I strongly suggest that you learn how to apply nitrous to your engine - and the ground. Learn to manage a 75-shot in the quarter-mile first, then come back for the answers to the questions you have afterwards.

I run a 2-stage NX wet kit - with tricks - at 150-shot total. On an automatic. See one of my photos above.

this is a better picture

Thanks for the info, but i dont need to know how to install it ive already done that...

So i need a brass T fitting with two smooth sides and a threaded bottom? and these are 1/8" inside diameter?

hey have you run your car at the track yet with the nitrous

Maximahappy22

iTrader: (4)

No, not yet. Hopefully this saturday if weather cooperates and i dont have baseball. I'll see if my dad will come down to the track and record the racing so you all can see how i do...

But i just got a '94 VE so that will become the track car in the next year and the nitrous will eventually get swapped to it, i hope to be running low 13's come this time next year.

Sorry to bump the old thread, but i was at home depot and lowes today and they didnt have what i thought was needed to make the fuel T

Where did you guys get your fittings?

They should definitely have it in stock. Did you ask somebody for help? I know they have the parts you need. There are two different aisles in the plumbling department that have T-fittings I believe. Only one aisle has the parts you want. They will be in individual baggies.

This is what I have done for a single stage nitrous setup:



The reason you see two Tfittings is b/c I have a fuel pressure gauge also. And it was much cheaper to get two T-fittings instead of a 4 way cross fitting.

Here is a pic of my setup before adding the additional T-fitting for nitrous:



I got all those parts from Lowes and Home Depot. They both have the parts needed to do this. If for some reason they are temporarily out of stock, then you can get everything you need at www.mcmaster.com.

I use 3/8 fuel line from the rail to filter with a 3/8 brass fuel tee

Maximahappy22

iTrader: (4)

What size is the stock fuel line? and what piece is screwed into each side of the top of the T that the filter and rail hook up to?

t6378tp

iTrader: (69)

if your talking about me, stock is 5/16

I use all 3/8 high psi fuel line for everything filter, tee, afpr, fuel psi guage and rail.

I use this for my fuel needs.

Maximahappy, once I get my SSIM done.. we should meet up and get a race going once the track opens up. PIR will be up and running in February.

How does that thing work?

But yes we deffinately should, i cant wait to race on the new track even though traction wont be as good. I should be in the mid to low 13's this coming season and hopefully by the summer ill be in the 12's

I don't know if that fuel rail adapter will work with the VE30 but you could have a shop possibly fab you up one. Basically our fuel rails have open ends that are held on with a plate and two bolts. That goes on the end of the fuel then slap on the OEM plate and there you go, you can have fuel for your nitrous. It's a very simple modification if you want to modify your stocker. Just cut a hole, have a shop weld on a AN flange and there ya' go.

Hell, I'm hoping to hit mid to low 13s with all the N/A **** I've done to this car. 12's with a 100 shot should be interesting..
