Default Nitrousexpress kits for gas magnum engines.

The thing that seems missing is a way for OBD1 dudes to dial in a bit more fuel. What do you think? Is a 50 shot or something small like that, too risky for the OBD1 crowd?

If the engine is in solid shape and the nitrous kit is properly installed, you should be fine for a low end nitrous hit. The kit will also add fuel to keep things from leaning out.

Yep, there is a fuel solenoid, and jets for it as well. Looks pretty complete.

I didn't see the part about the enrichening jet. That is cool. that it is something I could really feasibly and sanely use. .Sometimes you need that extra little nudge to get her over the top.

Keep in mind, that system is only designed to be active at wide open throttle.... which in certain situations off-road, could be way too exciting.

Sometimes you just gotta close your eyes, feed her the jalepenos, and let her dig.

If I ever get any time back in life, maybe I'll install this hand throttle kit I bought.

I think there is another thread on nitrous, My question was will it confuse the computer and cause less fuel to be injected?

It only engages at WOT, and in that condition, the PCM automatically goes into open loop anyway, and ignores the O2 sensors.
