Anyone running nitrous yet?

RoughRiders · March 9, 2016

I'm thinking of getting a nx or zex kit with a 75hp or 100hp shot but have heard of very few people running nitrous on the new motors yet.

Also does anyone know if the canned 87 diablo tune adds timing? I can't find it anywhere and was wondering if it would be an ok tune to run with a small setup like this or if i would jave to go back to stock tune.

Why are you wanting to run nitro?

I can pick a nx kit up for $700, and get bottles filled at $4.99 /lb so that's by far the cheapest way to go for easy and cheap hp. I don't get to drive my truck a whole lot due to work so $6000+ on a supercharger doesn't do me justice. And using nitrous in moderation and not getting carried away with it is just as safe as a supercharger. These new kits they have out have came a long ways from the old style kits.

Nitro is short for Nitro Methane. Nitrous is short for Nitrous Oxide. Don't get them confused.

This is first post Ive seen about nitrous on these trucks, engines similar enough though you could follow the lead somewhat of LT1 Camaro/Corvette guys really. I dont think I would do it without a tune though, stock or canned.

Best bet would be to talk to some of the tuners around the board.
