Nitrous
 
Has anyone ran nitrous on there 370 yet? I know I'll probably get flamed for this but I'm thinking about running a 75 or 100 shot at the drag strip just to see what it will do. Any thoughts?

Some intakes are more prone to pooling than others. I would do my homework.

IMO nitrous isn't worth it, because it's temporary and not permanent. BUT if u feel like running nitrous, make sure not to overdo it and destroy your engine internals. For occasional uses on the drag strip, 75-100 shouldn't be a problem.

I'd do it if I didn't have plans to go boost. Nitrous isn't a bad thing...it just doesn't seem like it's a popular choice here.

It only works well if you shoot video during the race :o

Honestly my plan is to put the kit on, throw on the radials, run a ridiculous time and then sell the kit.

Not worth it then if thats your plans^^


If you are going to run N2O do what I did and thats buy every extra saftey part there was, because if you are going to run N2O you better do it safe..... Blow down tubes are a requirement for track use, also get bottle pressure guage and bottle heater and purge kit and some form of a tune and a switch pannel... you are going to loose money when you sell it big time!

I only paid 500 bucks for the whole kit. I'm gonna get the gauge and lean shut off switch too.

What times are you doing now?

NYBladeZ 11-09-2011 10:17 AM

If you go bottle fed I'd invest in all safety measures such as a window switch etc. You won't find a lot of info on this site because it hasn't been done but keep us posted with your results. Consider it as being a Z pioneer.

One_Quick_Z 11-09-2011 04:56 PM

I plan on doing a N2O setup this spring I will post results when I get them......



There has only been a few people who have gone this route on the 370Z... Most should be similar to the 350Z maybe just a little better gains and times at the track....

Anyone that flames you for wanting to run nitrous has no experience with it. You won't get a better cost effective boost in performance in any other manner.

I ran it in a 4 banger and it was so much fun (only a 50 shot). As others said just be careful. Better to spend more on safety equip like purge valves, blow downs, bottle warmers, WOT switches etc.

Our car should be able to support 100-150 shot (wet kit) pretty easily with some tuning.

One_Quick_Z 11-09-2011 09:06 PM

Yes running a 100shot is very reliable when you get re tuned and have all the saftey extras... I had a sweet set up on my 350Z but never got to use it actually before parting out and getting the 370z.... cant wait to see what this does with boltons and a 100 shot should be 11's with good tires :)
