I've been getting some inquiries about what nitrous system to use with the Turbo Buicks to help with spooling problems. I think it's time to start a thread to discuss this. I'd like to simply go over the basics of a simple 50-100 shot, single fogger nozzle setup, and add in some simple system control information. Let's make this the thread people can go to when they're interested in putting together their own system or give them enough basic nitrous system information that can arm a person that is looking into purchasing a ready made nitrous system package.
If people have used certain nitrous kits with good results, feel free to plug in your preference and maybe list the features that make it a good choice.
I would prefer to keep the control systems simple, but if anyone wants to put in a plug for more complicated systems, that's perfectly fine. The more knowledge people are armed with, the easier it will be for them to look at different systems or components and figure out what is useful for their situation, or what is not.
I'll start out with a 10 lb. nitrous bottle with a valve that will support the amount of nitrous flow that your hp shot level demands. I can't imagine a valve that wouldn't support a 100 shot, so shopping for a bottle and valve that will work shouldn't be a problem. If the plan is to go to larger, crazier shot sizes, just make sure the valve size will support it.
Next important basic component. The injection nozzle(s).
