    Nitrous fuel feed, need help NOS Miata

    So i installed a nitrous kit on my Miata a few weeks back, and currently ive been running it as a dry kit. But i need to figure out where to "T" into the fuel system for my fuel solenoid. I have a 93, so im assuming i tap into the return from the rail??

    any help would be appreciated

    Typically, nitrous systems are set up for low pressure (carbureted) or high pressure (fuel injected) fuel systems The difference is basically the size pill specified for a certain hp rating. High pressure systems will have a smaller fuel pill than low pressure systems.

    Since you are running a high pressure system, You want to be sure you are sending the same pressure to your fuel jet as is sent to your fuel infectors. Having it on the return side will not likely supply enough fuel. To be sure you have it correct, I would recommend having a fuel gauge close to your solenoid. You should also have a pressure safety switch that will prevent the system from activating if something goes wrong with the fuel pressure.

    Since you are running a dry kit and converting to a wet kit, you will have to deactivate the dry kit's method of fuel enrichment. If you don't, you will be adding fuel twice, which will prevent the system from having the proper AFR. Do you have a wideband? If not, you are playing with fire. Nitrous is not kind to those who make tuning mistakes.

    I had a dry kit on my car years ago. It works great if you have it right, but I learned the hard way to obey the rules.

    How are you enriching fuel currently, MS?

    That is pretty ghetto, but we used to do some pretty ghetto tuning back in the day. Once you get it right, you will not believe how hard it will hit.
