    Hey guys does anyone know the biggest jet that will work with a Super Powershot nitrous solinoid. My Cheater solinoid failed and this is what I have now. I'd like to put a low 200 shot on the car, but don't know if the solinoid can flow it. I know they are rated at 175hp.

    Thanks in advance.

    Re: Nitrous solenoid question.

    Actually, they peak out at @ 150HP. You may get more out of them but not with conventional jetting. Even at 150 HP the jetting usually needs tweeking. The closer you get to the solenoids flow limit, the less they respond to larger jets. Just buy a used nitrous solenoid on e-bay, they are very cheap.

    I'm currently running 71n/63f jetting, in the car. The car runs great and the plugs look good too. But I'm greedy and want to hit it with a bigger shot. I've been wondering what the biggest jet is that will efficiently work with this solinoid. I'm running the NOS 150 jetting backwards. I'm trying not to buy anymore hard parts for the motor, the new engine most likely won't be sprayed this is why I didn't just buy the Bigshot upgrade kit, which is a killer bargain.

    You are maxed out with the jetting you are at. If your plugs look good, ride it out.....

    Still say e-bay is your best bet for what you are looking for...

    Or look up Nitrous Supply. They are the cheapest hands down for anything nitrous!:idea2:

    Nitrous Supply is where I've gone in the past for my stuff, thats where I was talking about the Bigshot upgrade deal. I'll try ebay alittle more for another cheater solinoid. NS gets just over a 100$ for a new one, and used prices are around barely lower from what I've seen. Thanks for the feedback you've given me. It took a bunch of testing to get to the Nitrous jetting I've got now, I know I can't go any leaner for sure.

    Ok just checked ebay again and stumbled onto a cheater solinoid for 32$ shipped. So its on its way.
