How many amps does a nitrous solenoid pull?
On average 8 to 10 amps depending on your voltage input.
What all do I need to run nitrous?
Nitrous oxide is an oxidizer, and you need to add fuel with the added oxygen to get power. The mixture of fuel and oxygen needs to be pretty close to ideal so that the mixture can ignite at the right time and the right temperature. Dry nitrous systems do not add that fuel and expect the engine to do it automatically.
How does a nitrous window switch work?
The Nitrous Express digital rpm window switch is an innovative module that monitors engine rpm as well as throttle position to automatically activate your nitrous system based on user adjustable RPM and TPS values. This ensures that the nitrous activates only within the set RPM and TPS values.
Does NOS require tuning?
There’s much more to this story on fuels when using nitrous, but a safe start is to start tuning with a higher-octane fuel and then tune accordingly. Fuel pressure is an equally important part of the nitrous tune. Most systems are tuned for 56 psi of fuel pressure.
Do you need a window switch for nitrous?
People have been using N2o for many years without window switches with much success. I recomend one because tts well worth not having to thumb the button between shifts and at launch on a manual car. Big Compression, Big Cam, AFR 225’s, FAST 92/92, Custom Direct Port Dry kit by Nitrous Outlet……
How many amps does a 12 volt solenoid use?
For example 12 volt solenoid valve with 15 watt coil will draw 1.25 amps and if connected to a battery will have a significant power drain and will need topping up according to the power usage.
What is a fogger nitrous system?
A “Fogger” nitrous systemintroduces nitrous and fuel directlyinto each intake porton the engine.
What is the difference between single stage and dual stage foggers?
Vehicles running one fogger nozzle per cylinder is said to be running “one fogger” or single stage. These are very common on one-stage systems. Vehicles running two fogger nozzles per cylinder run “two foggers”. These are used on dual stagekits.
How much horsepower does a compucar fogger kit add?
A Compucar Fogger kit can go as high as 1,100 horsepower with only one stage! Fogger systems are also one of the most complex and expensive type of system, requiring significant modification to the engine, adding a distribution block and solenoid assembly, as well as drilling, tapping, and building plumbing for each cylinder intake.
How does a nitrous/fuel mixture work?
Normally, these systems combine nitrous and fuel through a fogger nozzle, which mixes and meters the nitrous and fuel delivered to each cylinder individually, allowing each cylinder’s nitrous/fuel ratio to be adjusted without affecting the other cylinders.
