got a ???
Saturday, July 09, 2005 11:06 AM
ok my friend installed a venom system in his car and right now is runnin 50 shot and i belive it is dry shot not wet. now the car is an 03 elantra gt,... i know i know...., but when he hits the wide open throttle i dont notice much gains in preformance, now it does pick up quicker but not what we expected at all, is that normal or do you think something is wrong. now the reason i ask, is i base the things i buy on what is does to his car.,, guess you could say i use is car as a lab rat, but with what i saw with the preformance of the kit he installed i am not impressed with the gains. and is not worth the 600 he spent there for i dont want to waste my money. so do you think something is wrong with it or is that normal for 50 shot gains?

by the way on top of the info i already gave you, his check engine light is now on blinking some sort of injector code, and the status light on the enable and disable switch does not come on but the lights that blink weather his car is running rich or lean do work. he had it installed professionally also and they said "dont worry about the status light, because the system is still working." just figured id give you that lil bit of FYI

To be honest, when I hit my n2o for th frist time in 3rd gear I didn't notice a difference. It seemed like my RPM's were climbing pretty good. But a 50 shot wont slam you back in the seat at higher speeds. Try racing a car with and without it. I raced my friends 90 B16 hatch and lost. Got my n2o and smoked him. Its only a 50 shot.

As far as the 600 bux, seems kinda steep to me, but it depends what it comes with. I'd go with a Nitrous Express kit. I'm like a free sponsor for them, LMAO I really have nothing good to say about their kits. Even mine which is the cheapest barebone system and I love it. Plus you can have em for 450-550 depending on kit and where you get it.

well i just talked to him and my mistake it was 500 dollars and it is a wet system, but from your expirence with 50 shot it sounds like the same thing, but if anyone else has anything to say about it let me know. thanks

ok for some reason it is not working, we just ran each other about 5 mins ago and i smoked him bad, first we went from 35 and i had about little over half a car on him then we went from a dig and i beat him by about 1 1/2 car lengths, now he has headers short shifter full 2 1/4 inch exaust, cai an MSD Dis4, and we hooked up his 75 shot nozzle and i killed him wich should not happen, i actually feel bad for him, but i think i might have an idea why but i want to ask you guys, i dont think the tank is filled with nitrous, when he uses the purg it is blowing out dry hot air, now i could be wrong but isnt it supposed to be cold, i dont know anything about this @!#$ and neither does he but i think the tank is filled with air. let me know what you think. plus the status light still isnt on either.

yeah.... when you purge you should get a cold, white cloud of gaseous/liquid nitrous. take off the tank and open the valve... take a good sniff of it... if its automotive nitrous it will smell like rotten fish. if its regular nitrous, it will get you high. if neither, go back to the place where you got it filled and ask them what they filled it with, because its not nitrous.

well that is what i thought, i dont think it is n2o, and i think that is why the status light isnt on, cuz it is not reading any N2O. if anyone else has any info please let me know

No bottle heater? That could potentially turn a 50 shot into a 25 shot. A cold bottle might only read 600 psi (give or take) even when full. Proper bottle pressure is more like 1000 psi. The reduces nitrous flow, coupled with the now unneeded 50 HP worth of fuel flowing will make it run real rich, killing power and possibly setting CEL's.
