Your other link was a tease! I thought it was the Z4M, turned out to be off-road. Couldn't find any vids of the Z4M in your Photobucket went through the whole album

here it is...335i w/rpi intake and smaller diameter wheels/tires for better diff ratio vs me stock and camera car is a wrx stage 3 but not running right. stock vs stock I pull 2 cars by 120


here is the video of me(nitrous) vs 335i vs wrx
this was the first week I had nitrous installed and it was squeezing less than a 50 shot for sure. My bottle pressure was only at 700psi vs recommended 950+ and my switch was being intermittent...enjoy

he actually did...it was the 100lb ft of torque in the 75 shot that got me away so quickly in the beginning

I recently finished a ZEX install on my 2003 Z4 3.0i. At the moment it is only a dry shot because I need a few more fittings for the fuel system. I was going to tap into the front of the fuel rail where the threaded valve is. Would you happen to know the size of that valve? And also I'm only running a 50 shot right now. I was thinking about going up to a 75. How safe is it at a 75?

The only nitrous kit I would run on my car is a wet shot with a separate trunk-mounted fuel tank (filled with race gas) and pump.

The stock fueling system will not compensate for a 50 shot of nitrous. The car will run too lean. Even if the ECU could compensate, I doubt the injectors are capable of supplying enough fuel.

Sorry to bring this from the dead, but I wanted to know how long have anyone ran nitrous on their z4m or s54 engine? I want more power out of my s54 and would like some input before I order nitrous kit. TIA
