All you will need is a fuel pump on anything over a 50-shot. No FPR is needed, and just run the stock Ford Probe GT spark plugs those are good for over a 100-shot of nitrous and still give you a good peppy feelin all-motor.
That is a v-power ZFR6F-11 right? not a 5.. I guess you can also run a BKR6E-11 as well correct? Will a 6 temp plug work fine for the spray or would you recommend a 7? I beleive that 5 temp is stock on a ZE

The 5F-11 is stock for the USDM MX-6 LS, and these are ideal if you run All-motor ONLY, you may get away with up to a 50-shot, but never tried it.

The 6F-11 for the best combo of Nitrous and All-motor, I've personally run up to a 125-shot on these plugs and they work great.

The 7F-11 are way too cold of a plug, when running these all-motor the car really lost some peppiness, but on nitrous felt fine. I just never liked to drive all-motor with these, they also sooted up the plugs pretty bad.

With a dry kit you do not need a AFPR, A dry nitrous kit will tap into your stock FPR, via vacuum line, and as you spray it puts pressure on your stock FPR and raising your fuel pressure as necessary.

And you should never spray anything through your VAF, your nitrous nozzle should go between yout VAF and Throttle Body

This thread makes me want nitrous. I'd go small, and probably dry. Just because :)

Wet is better than dry! Just cuz dry is easier doesn't mean its the right option!

Ryan get your dang engine installed first.


I would love to run N20 but alas, polizia would have me! It is too hard to conceal a bottle (plus illegal) and they'd most likely make me keep it disconnect most of the time. :(

I will save for a turbo to get my power!

I'm sorry but Nitrous is not illegal to have on the car, It is only illegal to "use" on the street. I have smogged my cars and had cops inspect the car with my nitrous, as long as the bottle is not connected to the line and pressurized its perfectly legal.

Now on the other hand if a cop pulls you over and sees a turbo on a car that was not originally turbo'd, Illegal anyway you look at it.

depends on where you are, here in canada its not illegal to turbo a n/a car. The difference is that the insurance needs to know if you went turbo or they can deny you coverage here. I have never heard of puttin a turbo on a n/a car being illegal now that I think of it. I out a 8 cyl into a z24 about 10 years ago and that was not illegal. It was swapped from fwd to rwd with a custom chassis, once it passed saefty I was good to go.
