My 97 GTS and Nitrous Install-DUW

[FATHERFORD]

Ever since I have got it back I haven't had the time, or the weather was not cooperating to be able to test the system out.
Also, sorry people if the car is a little dirty. I haven't had the time to do a complete detail on a car I like to drive a lot..

First a small photoshoot...






Two 15lb bottles with temporary bottle heaters. Nitrogen assist system, bottle openers, and some air brush work will come soon.



The bottle setup was designed so that I can just unhook the main feed line and one connector and the entire back half of
system will come out in one piece. Leaving me an empty trunk for long trips.


Trick Performance P and V gauges. These monitor several key components of the engine,
including the FJO wide band. The gauge is a progressive controller as well.


Prototype switch panel. The anodized black and laser etched panels finally got shipped out yesterday.


The connection to the wide-band is in easy access reach curled up into the fuse panel area.

Dedicated fuel cell. 116 octane will be going in here.


The money shot. Nitro Dave's Nitrous Outlet plate kit for Gen 1 and 2. In this shot is also the "Big show" purge solenoid along with the fuel
pressure gauge for the dedicated.


You can see now how the purge is setup through the NACA duct. When the front of the hood is pushed down, the tubes slide right into the naca
duct. It has just mm of clearance.


During the install, I found out I have an aluminium fly wheel, B&M shifter, speed control box(for gears), high flow cats with
magnaflow mufflers(I know I had edelbrock longtubes). I seem to find out more and more stuff done to this car every time I work on it.

Looks great! Nice and clean. Looking forward to the right up. Thanks!!

That looks wicked-clean, man! I especially like the attention to detail in the cabin; the ashtray switchplate, hidden wideband connection and A-pillar gauges are trick. Note to self; if I see a red GTS with black powdercoated wheels rolling around my neck of the woods, do NOT honk the horn 3 times.

Looks great!

[plumcrazy]

nice setup. do a write up, it should be in the how to section looking that clean.

nice job.

and ditch the nitrous filter

[BOTTLEFED]

Very nice!

I really like those gauges

I'm surprised at how similar our setups are - and we have never even seen each others'

Let us know how those outlet plates work out. I'm very interested in them to finish up my setup.
Also, you need to start selling those switch panels. I have been trying to fit mine into the ash tray but haven't found a clean look yet.

Yes, I'm really interested how the plates are going to work. They can flow 400hp, but I'm not sure how well they will reach the back cylinders at such an high hp rating. Thats where the dyno time comes in.

Nitro Daves Nitrous Outlet should be getting 5 of the anodized switch panels in stock any day now.. One is mine. Should look something like this

BTW there is over 80 hours into this install between two people. I hope enough pictures were taken to full explain all the details went through to do this.

Here is some info on the P and V gauges
P gauge

Progressive controller (time or rpm based).
RPM window switch.
Wide-Open-Throttle detection when used with factory TPS or WOT switch.
Supports Fly-by-Wire TPS rising or falling.
5 Point variable Progressive ramping (time or rpm based).
Shift Light.
Rich l Lean Cutoff (when used with a wideband).
Air/Fuel inputs Digital or Analog.
Multiple wideband capabilities.
Heater controller.
First gear lockout / delay.
8 different Main Viewing screens.
Programmable Power UP screen and Arm screen.
Multiple pressure choices.
Pressure display ( Boost, Nitrous, Oil or Fuel).


V Gauge

The V Guage replaces the following:
1 Nitrous Pressure Gauge (with optional sensor).
1 Nitrous Pressure Shut Down Switch.
1 Fuel Pressure Gauge (with optional sensor).
1 Air/Fuel Gauge (Instead of Fuel Pressure Gauge/ FPSS).
1 Air/Fuel Shut Down Switch (turns nitrous system off if running lean or rich).
1 Fuel Pressure Safety Switch or FPSS.
1 Nitrous Heater Toggle Switch.
1 Heater Control Pressure Switch(with optional sensor).
1 Digital Bottle Weighing Scale.

Here is a short video of them turning on. I'm trying to get myself real familer with them and I'll do a how-to video.

I swear I saw a spec of lint on your trunk carpet. I'd tear out the whole install and redo it with some pride.
