| Who is shooting what with this setup??? the mods are in my signature and i was wondering what is the most that you have shot with an in tank walbro 255lph with stock fuel lines and rails. i was wondering if there was a need to run a stand alone fuel system to be able to keep up. the kit i have is the TNT F2 kit. i have another kit from coldfusion nitrous already installed and would not mind shooting two stages to see what its like. so far as safety i have the harris speedworks micro edge which is capable of activating two stages and watching everything else i will also have my wideband hooked up to the microedge as well. its the LC-1 from innovative motorsports. any input with your setup or experience would be appreciated. thanks in advance.

| a 255 is only good up to around 500whp without a hot wire kit.....with the hot wire that pump is usually good up to 6-650 or so. But as with any fuel system you will need to verify that you are maintaining pressure during a pull.
Flow capacity is also dependent on the current output of your electrical system....as voltage drop/increases you will be changing the output of the pump. |

| just guessing With my set up with the heads and cam that i have i should be making (per TSP) around 410-440 to the rear. i know i want to shoot at least a 100 shot on one stage and maybe another 150 or so on the other stage if possible. my rings are already gapped for a 150 shot. the plugs i have in now are the tr-55 which i can change if need be thats no problem. and so far as the timing i have access to the software to pull as much as i need so thats no real problem either. thanks for the inputs please let me know what yall think.

You're going to have to keep a very good eye on things. Get rid of the TR-55's...hopefully you weren't already spraying with them. With that large of a shot start with a heat range 8 and verify all of the cylinders look good. Let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks.

| what plugs well i knew i would probably have to change the plugs, but what should i go with? so you think a stand alone system will be the safest to do? if so do you have any complete kits that you sell to mount up front under the hood? i still have to hook my other kit up, and also the micro edge but i am just trying to get my ducks in a row before i do something stupid because i definitly dont want to hurt a perfectly good motor. thanks

| I know very little about nitrous, although I'm trying to learn. It sounds like you want to do it right the first time. I would run a stand alone with the right fuel to make it safe, along with the right plugs and timing. Maybe a 75rw on the first shot and another 125rw on the second? See how traction goes and take it from there.

Unfortunately it isn't a resisted plug, but it does have a nice firing tip. If you notice any electrical feedback on the plugs try giving the denso IT24 a try.
Yes, we offer a stand alone for your application. Just take a look on the left side of the webpage.
Anything else please feel free to ask. Thanks!
