[QUOTE="dirtyo2000, post: 11391147, member: 106904"] From what I can tell there wasn't one because the idiot blew the Z up. Having both cars and a previous 08 Z (should have kept that one) they do not love nitrous. Most that are spraying them use it sparringly and efficiently. You don't spray a Z through the gear box because you are asking to blow the motor. Those that are lasting only spray when necessary and normally in the lower gears to quickly get through that gear. Spraying through the gear box creates some serious cyclinder pressure and over the long run cracks blocks, burns through pistons, even twists rods. When I use to race the 08 I had, I would spray 2nd and 3rd gear to keep the other cars from getting to far out. Most of the time I could come around by the top of 3rd gear and get off the gas and let the motor work. Not a die hard GM fan, no matter the car, it's hard to run with a Z from 4th gear on. If your spraying through 4th gear your asking for problems. The time in 4th is to long a spray interval. You lose bottle pressure, create cyclinder pressure, and run the risk of spiking the tune. Most have a window switch to richen the car under WOT. Spraying 2nd - 4th on a 150 or larger shot is begging to blow the car up. [/QUOTE]
