Hey i just got my nitrous kit on my swap and i wanted to ask a few questions before i get happy and start spraying it. I have a Venom400. would it be safe to run nitrous w/ this on? I get my JG head package tomorrow and should my setup be reliable w/ 75 jet.

short ram intake
75 shot Nitrous (n.o.s. system) dry
4-1 header
2.5 test pipe
2.5 cat back
zex plugs
venom400

JG Ported head
5angel valve job
stainless valves
crower dual valve springs
crower ti retainers
Crower stage3 race cams


My Questions again:
#1 Can i run Venom400 with my nitrous?
#2 Will my nitrous setup be reliable even with JG head and crower valvetrain?/

thanks to any who can help.


**edit**

I have a 97' B20b swap w. 30k miles and GSR tranny in a 93 civic coupe DX

take the venom junk off, get a255lph fuel pump, sell the jg head hhaha. that thing will probably be the worst purchase ever made...why did u buy it??? get ngk bkr7e plugs...rock n roll.

 

Yeah, that venom unit will advance the timing and lean you out, which is exactly the opposite of what you want to do with nitrous. I ran Zex plugs last season without any issues, but some people have blown them up. I'm switching to the NGK BKR7Es for this season.
Provided JG didn't **** the head up(According to some you'd have a better chance of making wine from water) the nitrous won't affect it. Personally, I'd get on the dyno and see if you can get some more power by adjusting your cams while on the bottle. A little more exhaust timing is supposed to be good with nitrous.

 

Thanks for the post. I was getting the head because it was $375 and used for 5,000 miles... but had no cams. I just called the guy and told him i changed my mind about it and I'll use my money towards fuel upgrades and dyno tuning. Anyone want to buy a Venom400?? I'll sell it cheap retails for like $499. I'll sell it if anyone wants it haha

 

i would have put the head on it and sell that venom box. you can spray 70 shot no prob. jus make sure you check your plugs

 

well I'm new to nitrous, What would you guys suggest me getting for my setup to help reliability and or make more power. I wanted to get a Skunk2 intake manifold, bigger fuel rail w/ fpr and aftermarket feul pump. what do you think? or maybe a engine ground kit and some grounded plud wires? what do you gorus think? I run 87 octain with my timing advanced but now that I'm going to spray it I am turning the timing back in the middle. should i pump the Octain up to 93 now? Sorry for all teh questions. just dont want to have anything go wrong w/ my setup. b20 is 8.8:1 so i shoudlnt have too much trouble.. but still

 

grounded plug wires are over rated... get a fuel pump and a regualtor and youll be aight, maybe an MSD box... i got a crane HI-6 for sale...$100 shipped

 

I run 93 octane and use an MSD dig 6 to knock the timing back 3 degrees for my 75 shot. A fuel pump shouldn't be necessary unless your stock one is on its last leg. If you've got the money laying around a fuel pump and fpr are a cheap safety net.
