Default Fuel Cell for Nitrous Question

Hey guys, I'm thinking about going with a direct port nitrous setup for my next project. What I want to do is run a separate C16 fuel cell to feed the nitrous jets. The question is what size fuel cell do I need? I want to run 100-150 hp total jets and it would be nice to fill the fuel cell and the 10lb nitrous tanks at the same time.

i would use a 3 gallon size cell.

but i would run the cell for the motor and NOS set up both, as in being able to switch from pump to race and power both the car and NOS kit.


all in all it seems very elaborate for a single kit tho

The reason why I want to have it setup like this is because I still drive the car a lot. I currently have the F23 fully built and running 365hp and I don't want to burn a ton of C16.

Another reason why I don't want to switch to C16 on the fly is because I don't think AEM EMS supports switching maps on the fly.

if its just feeding the nitrous, id run a 1 gallon cell with a walboro inline pump, -4 line straight to the solinoid. that would be your easiest/smallest setup

I'm currently turboed. Will 1 gallon cell be enough for a full 10lb nitrous tank?

1 gal will only be good for a few pass max. 3 is the way to go.
