C16 up front, 93 out back. Still playing with the setup. Testing different header and exhaust options. Have to find what works best for my setup as a daily.

Where is your wideband sensor? Left or right headers? Pics would be awesome.

All in all this setup should be safe and no long term issues to the motor. Anyone else chime in if you have anything to add.
Cool good to know that coming from someone with experience with NOS on this particular motor

Another question for you is how large are the injectors that Toyota put on the F? And again if you don't need larger injectors then the ECM is able to add enough fuel to keep AFR safe with this set-up?

I'm at work so I dont have a nozzle pic, maybe when i get home super late tonight.

Also, when doing your burnout, is there a button on your window switch to deactivate your NOS while doing the burnout. That would be an extreme waste of NOS! <--- Rookie question... LOL
My window switch opens in every gear from 3k-6800. I think it may be later now since I went up to 150, I need to confirm the exact window. I do get a bit of spin cycling through low gears, Just a finesse game there.

For burnout, I just keep the system arm off, so no solenoids open up. Then activate after a burnout.

This is awesome but can it hook on the drag strip? Would you use it on a road course?

Nitrous is primarily for 1/4 mile drag strip. It will hook easily with the right tires. As for using it on a track or road course, that would not be wise as you only get about 8 passes of a 1/4 mile with a 10lb bottle. The bottle wouldn't last more than 5 minutes on a track.

Exhaust has a slight rattle, going to throw up on the lift hopefully this weekend. I'll try and take pics then.

Fuel delivery is fine. Mr Slay has run as high as 200 shot with stock fuel setup as far as I know. Just tuning properly and using race fuel is the key.

I ordered my NOS setup yesterday, being installed the week of March 2nd. I am so excited to see what they will do with the car! I went all out and spent over $3000 to make this thing a monster. 2 - 10lb bottle setup with show piece bracket for the trunk. Window activation switch with progressive shot tuning so it will hit with 75hp at 4000rpm then hit the full 150 shot at 5000 rpm or however I want. The gauges will be installed in my glove box with them being moveable so I can pull them out to my driver seat and adjust the tuning as I see fit.

I will start a new post with pics when its completed in early March! May cant come fast enough!!!! That's when the 1/4 mile track opens here!

Are you installing it yourself or having a shop do it? Just curious, I might get a kit this spring as well

Having a performance shop do it for me. I know nothing about being a mechanic. I can hardly change a flat tire.... lol. I'm sure I could if I had to but it would take me hours!

I will start a new post with pics when its done.

Is it a shop in Lethbridge or Calgary? I had nitrous on a car about 12 years ago and I had Lightspeed innovations in reddeer do the install but they have become a huge shop now and charge huge shop prices.

But you're talking about a wet shot, right? with a wet shot you shouldn't have to worry about the stock injectors at all since you're getting the AFR right with the fuel jet. if you're not using a standalone, where do you tap into the stock fuel system for the "wet" part of the nozzle? does the F have a Schrader valve on the fuel rail or something?
