Do u know what ur a/f are? Adding 65 hp with no engine management seems dangerous. Just wondering about this whole setup caus I was thinking of a 50 shot maybe down the road. But I would want it tuned
Yes, a sideband and wet shot kit is more than enough to run a 75 shot. Understand, there are some perimeters to follow. Understand how nitrous works and the difference between a dry(bad) shot and a wet(good) and direct shot(very good but requires EMS). Honestly, a 50 shot won't even be worth the hassle, do a 75 shot and call it done. The stock ecu cannot be tuned. You should search the 75 shot nitrous success.
If you size the pill correctly for the fuel pressure side, a dry 75 shot should be just fine. I imagine the fuel pump would be able to hand the slight pressure raise considering the OEM has been enough for me to run E85 through it on my setup for years.

For those of you mentioning slow time or low trap speed, he's at 5,300 ft above sea level. Current DA as of typing this is at 5,463 ASL. Your OEM car is closer to a mid-to-high 15 second car up there.

I personally do not care for nitrous, but I've done my share on other cars. If you size the fuel pressure pill correctly, it'll raise the fuel pressure (via bottle pressure) to allow more fuel to be injected for the same IDC. One of my current customers runs a dry 100 shot on his Taurus SHO. It's a high compression E85 3.3L with a 255 lph pump (ran an 11.55 in the 1/4 mile and 151 mph in the 1/2 mile). Previous to that, we've run up to a dry 100 shot on several car makes with smaller pumps and stock internal motors. All that was to say that it's not "bad", but it has its limits and can be run very safely when you're within them.

However, he's dumping the nitrous this year for an EFR 8374 and two Bosch 044's in a surge tank.

E85 knowledge wasn't where it now when I was spraying. 93octane was it. No one felt the need to chance it either, so we used caution by using the wet kit with stock everything. Cool videos

Thanks. Actually, we've been doing the 75-100 shot for over a decade on SHO... Probably closer to 15 years, long before I started using E85. I think I started using E85 in 2010 or 2011. Now all my vehicles either run E85 or diesel.

Heck, I did 440whp on my SHO with a Vortech T-trim on 91 octane and no intercooler (spotty water injection setup) back in the day and that was maxing out the fuel injectors to the point where the engine cut. Years later, I swapped to ID1000's and E85 and that number went to 550+ without changing boost.

Read the OP. I shifted early from 3rd to 4th and cruised past the line. Very first run on the setup and was just making sure everything functioned properly.
