anyone use nitrous on their zl-1

Curious if the lsa would respond well to a nitrous kit or is the stock bottom end too weak. What kind of gain could be expected from a 100 or 200 shot?

That being said I am sure someone has done it.

If you do...... post pics.

You can add a nozzle, directport or spray bars to the sc'er. It works great.. the lsa is a great motor for nitrous.

Nitrous in a small amount would be a great idea just for the cooling effects alone.

Ive hear, only rumors, that there are a few running NOS. A dry shot from 25hP up to 50hp....

I was thinking about it but Im choosing meth for cooling.

those are only rumors.....

I'm working with Nitrous Outlet to make a ZL1-specific plate kit. We've already done the first fitting of the plate and solenoid bracket. We're waiting for some new brackets to get cut and we'll do the next fitting.

I am also interested, I will be keeping an eye on this thread to see what the kit is producing.

When I picked my car up they had a bunch of super cool projects on the go that I got to sneak peaks at.

Dennis has been under the hood and in the trunk already.
You should be the first to run down the track with a little N2O!
