Robert's Nitrous Service

My new base of operations is at http://NitrousForum.com/  and  http://Corvetteforum.com. To contact me use weaver.robert@comcast.net, or just ask your technical question in the open forum (all makes and models). Please check out the entire site as there are some very informative write-ups, and the "Web Stores" will have products added as time allows.

My goal here is personalized service, a one on one. Some vendors will give a BS line and tell you what you want to hear, good or bad, they only care about $$ leaving your wallet. You can trust me on this one, being an insider from many different angles. I will be straight with you, with my opinion, and if this costs a sale, well so be it. Integrity of some N2O vendors is bad, very bad. Buyers beware, as I worked for one vendor whom was less than totally honest.

Some of you may know of my passion for nitrous, and in particular, the Dry-Hit on the LSx/EFI platform. Anyway, I will be doing some write-ups on Dry Direct Port set-up and tuning, Interface Set-Up, MicroEdge programing, reading plugs, timing pull, fuel system upgrades and so on. Free to all, and I do welcome additional information and any corrections or updates. Coming soon, are many-many products and not all are nitrous based. So much more to do here, so be patient and check back often. One other thing I plan on doing is a wet vs dry type write-up based entirely upon facts. What brought this up was seeing a current wet vs dry, and it was so biased and dated, and of course left out all the cutting edge products that have revolutionized the dry hits. I am no wet hater by any means, I just want guys making their choice, wet or dry, based upon correct up to date information, not old wives tales that are dead and buried, lol. Also, The DP Dry does in fact run closer EGTs and per cylinder A/F ratios compared to the wet DP, and this is after both are flowed. I am getting ahead of myself and all this will be covered in depth soon.

Here is my current project, a "Direct Port Dry" street/strip system using the Stock PCM/ECM, and a Edelbrock Victor Jr single plane intake with a custom elbow. The "Parallel Fuel System" is covered in the fuel system section; we are also using the new controller the "Interface" for fueling and timing pull as well as the "MicroEdge" ; which is a very advanced window switch and dual stage controller. The Interface allows a/f tuning for dry hits after the MAF, as well as conventional before the MAF dry style kits. Also, it allows automatic timing pull, both with out, internal PCM tuning, nor the need for a laptop and tuner program. A great innovative product that the nitrous world has been waiting for and is embracing. It will work wonders on wet hits also for fine tuning, even the DP wet hits. One year ago, trying to run a Direct Port Dry hit with the stock ECM was unheard of, now it's become a cake walk. Watch for this style of N2O to take off, considering the ease of set-up, the simplicity of tuning and the biggest factor, the inherent safety factor that only the Dry hits can supply. 

Here's the command center. My tuning write ups, as well as the products I tout, have been tested and retested many times. HP Tuner on HP laptop, LM1 WideBand, N2O control panel, fuel and nitrous pressure gauges, Laptrax, Interface and more are used for the tuning/testing. Test sessions are either ¼ mile runs or Dynamometer. My test car, the Z06, saw somewhere between 250/300 ¼ mile passes and numerous dyno pulls before bending a rod and breaking a ring land. This was at 685rwtq with a 100% stock long-block LS6. Numerous style kits were tested however, and so much was learned; the LS6 is a brute and Chevrolet got it right for sure; however, they never dreamed that it would get brutilized as a test mule. All is well now, a new 408 resides where the mighty LS6 once lived, and it's lastest companion is the Direct Port Dry as the 1st stage.

Finally blowing a ring land on the LS6 with a 285rwhp Dry Shot.
