AlaskaracerBracket racing with Nitrous
Lots of suppliers, but if you're going to get a kit, best to get one from Induction Solutions or Fast Lane Nitrous. Reason I say them is because they flow the kits and provide tune up data for YOUR setup based on information you give them. An out of the box setup will work, but the tunes are usually quite a ways off and need to be dialed in. A flowed system will be very close and includes timing info as well as other stuff. They will still need fine tuning but the tunes are way closer and generally "safer" than the generic tunes out of the box systems come with.

DragRaceResultsI'd recommend Nitrous Express also. They have a great assortment of plate systems. Don't be intimidated, just take you time and read thru the different options. Their website is very helpfull.

Little ChiefI have been looking at the Holley Sniper nitrous kit and trying to find out what blow down tube adapter is used with their system. I have called Holley and Jegs several times but no answer, I guess that f------ virus has something to do with it. At this time this kit just fits my budget better than others.

TH383I use it mostly if I feel the car slip on the starting line or know I missed the tree. I hit it early because like Steve said I dont gain much at the stripe with my convertor. Some tracks starting line is so good never use it.

Mike RietowHitman is reasonably priced.

Mike RietowWe went with a FastLane. If you want hard hit talk to this guy. He gets 350-375 hp out of a 8 hole per bar cheater plate using a Big Shot style solenoid. This is what I used Super Pro bracket racing (bigshot solenoid) 8 hole per bar cheater plate. Hard hit override. I'm sure he produces his own 8 hole plate too. We are just mandated by DXP street rules, to use a NOS brand cheater plate. FastLane is real reasonably priced as well. We were surprised considering the fast cars he has on his systems.

Little ChiefWell the cost must have gone up because 50.00 won't get them to pick up the phone.

Far from an authority on nitrous systems here, but I called Induction Solutions this week.
Answered on the second ring, spoke with me for 5 minutes. Called me back within 30 minutes and had everything I needed to know.

Little ChiefI finally made a move and purchased the Cheater system from NOS. Hopefully I made a good decision and the install goes smoothly. I do plan on purchasing a single stage nitrous board from Leash electronics to tidy things up.

Little ChiefI have been told that I need a 12-803 regulator for the fuel solenoid on my plate kit. I really don't care for the chrome look as it's not the look I am going for. Would prefer a black regulator to go with my theme. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you

CashflowMy Aeromotive regulator is black.

AlaskaracerAeromotive (my preference) and Magnafuel sell black regulators, and this is a holley 803 clone I ran from jegs, worked perfectly:

NC3x58I used Holley 12-840. It's a billet regulator with a black housing and silver top part. I use a 12-843 for my carb and when I got the nitrous plate I got the 840 to match my other one as well as a Magnafuel 2-port fuel log to feed both regulators.
