zthis Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 A friend let me borrow his Big Shot Nitrous Kit so along with mine i now have a Big Shot plate running dual stage 125 of the throttle then switching to 180 maybe 210 if i can hook. Question 1 Is the Big shot plate really that much better than the cheater plate using the same size jets. Question 2 with my old power shot solenoids kicking around i was going to hook it up for purging and that got me thinking everybody purges that nice cold NOS into the air why not set in up to spray under the runners the dome (team G) as long as it wasn't getting sucked into the carb wouldn't this have a cooling effect on the dome and carb ??????

ZTHIS, I am a Nitrous Express Guy but I do know that the NOS Big Shot Plate is adjustable (175-225-275-325-350+ hp) is and will make more power than the NOS Cheater Plate adjustable (100-125-150-180-210-250 hp). What intake do you have? I do not advise stacking the two plates on top of each other (due to poor distribution in some intakes). Have you thought about puting on a Nitrous Progressive Controller with the Big Shot Plate? Yes, If you sprayed the nitrous purge on or under the runners it will have a cooling effect on the intake. If you have any questions or if I can help you out in any way my phone numbers are below give me a call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zthis Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 Jon thanks for the post. to clarify i had a dual stage cheater system but planning on only using the same amount of nitrous but changing the plate to the big shot which has a something like double the number of holes in the spray bars. I've heard that the extra holes make more HP because of the better flow. I have considered a progressive controller to save rear end parts if nothing else. How well to they work? I think that if you can't get the maximum HP out of the system within the first 2-3 your really not going to gain much in the ET after that. I'm not sure my car can handle any more than 210 without breaking the tires free going down the track anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZTHIS, I have been using a Nitrous Progressive Controller on my Little Tire Z Car for years and have had very good luck with them. You can start out with a lower % of your total HP tune up and ramp it in as the track and car will handle the HP. I would recommend the FJO Nitrous Controllers either the ( # KWS0022 Progressive Nitrous Mini-Controller ) or the ( # 15959 Nitrous Express Maximizer-II ) for more information go to their web site www.fjoracing.com or I am a dealer for them if you have any questions or need any help give me a call.
