Hey all,

Just bought an EFI kit for the car. I was wondering, my kit (NX 20923) didn't come with a nitrous filter. Although the installation intstructions show many kits using this filter. Is this filter necessary? My first inclination is no, but not sure. Thanks

Ask questions if you have'em, anyone who thinks they're too cool, know's it all, or doesn't want to look stupid has more problems than you.

How did a wood chip get in there?....WTF?

If you plan on running the nitrous often, then I would get a filter....

Ok thanks guys, maybe I'll get a filter.

FoStang - My car is in Texas right now getting painted and should be back very soon. And believe me, I know about being crazy, I haven't even seen my car in 8 months. And you better believe I'll be lining up against alot of people. I'm still shooting for 600rwhp [Big Grin]

Sweet me too I've got an efi supercharged 347 going into mine. It'll either break the block or make the numbers.

What size tires have you managed to stick on the rear of yours? So far for me 315 35 17 and also a 28.0x12.0 full slick, with no fender flares.

Really looking forward to seeing your car complete.

i used to keep the bottle at home when i didnt use it and leave the line in the trunk. somehow it made its way in.
oh yeah, another time my n20 solenoid got stuck and i had to disassemble it to find the smallest little pebble, half the size of this period > .
