View Full Version : NOS on the 2.0L S/C Lil Blue SC 12-12-2005, 09:22 PM Is there a Nos kit for the S/C 2.0L cobalt and if so how much WickedSS2005 12-12-2005, 09:37 PM I am unsure if NOS has made a kit, but I'm sure someone has info about a nitro kit for the 2.0. Could always try ZEX or NX if NOS doesn't have a premade kit. Also, can try doing one on your own, but I think nitrous oxide systems are retarded unless you plan on using it for drag racing only (and I also mean the car for drag only as it is 100% illegal on a road car.) Lil Blue SC 12-13-2005, 07:13 PM Well i know all that but.... i was just wondering how would u hook it it becasue u cant put the Nos.. befor the supercharger.. ud have to drill holes in the manifold????? thats what im ?ing sneaky 12-13-2005, 07:24 PM Well i know all that but.... i was just wondering how would u hook it it becasue u cant put the Nos.. befor the supercharger.. ud have to drill holes in the manifold????? thats what im ?ing A better example to look at would be maybe a Cobra, Lighting, Aftermarket Supercharged Vette, GTO. Lil Blue SC 12-13-2005, 07:29 PM What would be a safe shot you think to run at i was think 35 maybe a 50 05YELLOWSS 12-13-2005, 11:45 PM i run 75 on the track... sneaky 12-13-2005, 11:50 PM What would be a safe shot you think to run at i was think 35 maybe a 50 On a 2.2L would be a 50 shot to be safe. I won't exceed over 100 and I won't try to go above 50 either. On the LSJ I think you can safely run a 75 shot but it's slightly more built for abuse out of the box then the L62. Remember, no shot is a safe shot but test and works is at least a 50. dnbguy86 12-14-2005, 12:03 AM On a 2.2L would be a 50 shot to be safe.

If so, you dont know what the hell your talking about, as long as you have enough fuel to accomadte the extra incoming air, your shit will not blow up. If you get that right, theres next to no way to fuck your shit up unless your always on it, or if someone hooked up your shit wrong. Im so tired of people who have never sprayed talk about it like its a bad thing and it will blow your motor. mtwal16 12-14-2005, 12:09 AM Have you ever sprayed before ?

Im so tired of people who have never sprayed talk about it like its a bad thing and it will blow your motor. dont spray too much cuz ull def blow your motor out and havta buy a new one...ive never sprayed b4 but i have seen it on "The Fast and the Furious", so i know what im talking about. :lol: dnbguy86 12-14-2005, 01:17 AM dont spray too much cuz ull def blow your motor out and havta buy a new one...ive never sprayed b4 but i have seen it on "The Fast and the Furious", so i know what im talking about. :lol: Im not trying to insult anyones intelligence but i have first experience, and never had any single problems...gone through so many bottles it aint funny. i dunno how yall think shits gona blow up, but yet when you install a turbo it wont blow up either huh ? mtwal16 12-14-2005, 01:53 AM Im not trying to insult anyones intelligence but i have first experience, and never had any single problems...gone through so many bottles it aint funny. i dunno how yall think shits gona blow up, but yet when you install a turbo it wont blow up either huh ? dude i was jp....i have no knowledge about nitrous, ima leave it to the experts. i was jus tryen to be funny GotBoost? 12-14-2005, 02:11 AM Well i have talked to so experts about putting NOS on my car. They said what most people dont understand is that when you spray a wet kit in a Forced Induction car, it duoble yours shot. Because yes it does go through your supercharger. You still have to drill a hole in your intake, and it sprays just like normal. So if your shot is going to double, i wouls spray a 25 shot. I have the GM Build Book, and if you read it, it tells you that the stock internals for our cars can will stand a 75 shot. So i would go with a 25 at first to be safe. And make sure it is trottle act. This is what ive been told from experts that i have talked to face to face about my car. Hope this helps. ( ZEX makes the best kits IMO) RedBaseBolt 12-15-2005, 02:25 PM I used a ZEX kit with my Alero and had no problems with anything until my FPR popped off in the middle of me spraying and I blew my motor to peices... make sure everything is connected firmly. sneaky 12-15-2005, 02:40 PM Have you ever sprayed before ?

There is tolerances to be meet and don't insult other users. It just makes you look like a nazi. You can have all the fuel in the world but if the motor wasn't designed to take abuse then why bother? Have you ever tore apart a car after (3) 50-75 shots were sprayed in a month before? I have, it's not pretty what it does to small displacement motors. There not meant to handle all those extremes. I think you watched too much F& The F. Spray is bad if it's not setup for the the intended purpose it was made for, track use. I've watched and witnessed several accidents of street racing when someone activated N20 on the car doing about 70 and ran right into the side of the car that had the right away. I don't condone it's use on the street and I've done test and tuned several cars to run off of ZEX. The application should go by displacement not by how much fuel YOU think it can throw at it. That's just part of it. :rolleyes: Sounds like you need to go back to watching videos... R33P3R007 12-15-2005, 02:47 PM i run 75 on the track... how bout some pics of you r setup? did you have a plate fabricated? if so where.

I personally wouldn't touch anything above 55, just to stay safe. I'm not 100% positive, but I believe they recommended a wet kit through Nitrous Express. Wet kits like those (Zex carries one too) install into your intake manifold. There is no harm in doing this. Just....don't be stupid or get carried away. And for the love of God, it is called nitrous, or n2o, or 'the bottle' or 'laughing gas' but NOS is a name brand, and is NOT the correct term for the stuff. That's like calling any car on the road a chevy, or every tire a Michelin. It's not ok. 88DT Bandit2941 12-21-2005, 01:11 AM Have you ever sprayed before ?

Jmc007 12-22-2005, 09:29 AM A good quality product and a cheap alternative is a Cold Fusion Nitrous wet kit. wasey13 12-22-2005, 05:19 PM Well i have talked to so experts about putting NOS on my car.

If you had a fuel pressure switch it would have cut the system off and this wouldnt have happened. They also make an air fuel ratio switch that will kill it too, I had both of these on my 2001 WS6 running 11.8x's with no problem out of a NOS 5177 dry kit.

Done right it shouldnt really hit too hard. Use a window switch to control what rpms it engages at. Make sure to use the right spark plug for the size of shot you are using. Dry kits hit a little softer and make slightly less power but are way safer if you can get one that works on these cars because the computer does all the work. 1fstss 04-18-2006, 05:35 AM ive used nitrous on a few of my cars, my 95 Z has a 250 2 stage in it, my SS has a Zex 125 dry kit, my laser had a 55 shot wet, my firebird had a 75 shot, and ive hooked up dozens of kits and done the homework... With any forced induction motor, the amount of nitrous you add damn near doubles. the 2.0 in the new cobalt WILL handle a 50 shot, it had low compression and a solid bottom end and to who ever said "you ever seen a car after 4 bottles?" if there was a problem after 4 bottles they had it jetted wayyy lean, if you spray, you have to fo to a step colder plug if not 2, and forget about running a platinum plug, youll burn a hole in your piston. platinum plugs burn longer through the engine cycle and can cause detination. running a fuel pressure safety switch is cheap insurance they cost about 25 bucks out of summit. when hooking up nitrous your "nozzle" should be about 6-8 inches away from your throttle body, and in this case the blower, this gives the nitrous time to atomize. theres alot more techno babble that can be said but ill keep it short, nitrous is safe if installed properly, make sure when you pick your jets you figure in your fuel pressure and bottle pressure into the equation. when i get home from work ill post a nitrous jet calculator. BLKSS 04-18-2006, 08:32 AM Does NOS still exist? I know they still make energy drinks but I dont think they have anything out for our cars. I want to see that guys setup. Everyone says there running it but I cannot see! and shit.. 1fstss 04-19-2006, 01:14 AM i have a NOS brand kit on my 95 Z28, snd im putting one on my cobalt, just a 50 shot though. 06noscobaltss 04-19-2006, 11:46 AM I had a NOS kit on my cobalt with a zex purge kit. but wrecked it. so now im selling the kit for whoever is interested. askin 500 for everything. has a 75 shot nozzle on it, remote bottle opener, all lines, rpm box, 2 brand new flip switches and a brand new push switch. also includes the electrical lines for the remote bottle opener! |
