Run Huge Nitrous On Your Street Machine

Don't Run A Crazy Mechanical Cam And Monster Compression-Get Stupid Power And Driveability When Run Nitrous. We Show You How.

The Kit
Now the fun begins. We've heard for years that the tunnel-ram trades bottom-end driveability and power for a good peak number. We say, so will a giant cam. To fix both problems, we bolted on the Nitrous Oxide Systems (NOS) Pro Fogger Kit. For absolute, stupid fun, you can't beat the Fogger. We briefly considered a pair of plates but discovered the extra inch the plates provided under the carburetor smashed the air cleaners into the top of the hoodscoop. Since we wanted to drive the car on the street with a hood, we opted for the low-profile, high-visibility charms of the system with the crazy plumbing.

    This is the bung. There is nothing to it really. If this were a dual-stage fogger, there would be two staggered above and below the X on either side.

    This is what you pay for. Eddie TIG-welded each bung using the dowel as a guide. They look like they were made for the ram.

  • Hogans Racing Intake Manifolds Tapping Bung With 1 16Th Npt Tap
    After the manifold cooled, Eddie tapped each bung with a 11/416-inch NPT tap. He didn't go all the way so that the final builder could clock each nozzle so it faces the intake port.

NOS offers so many different complete systems that they've seemed to run out of names for them. What is important is the delivery system and the size of the solenoids. The Powershot and Cheater solenoids are for wet and dry systems and for simple plates that can deliver up to 250 hp. The largest fuel solenoid is the Cheater, but there are three more nitrous solenoids if you really want to get crazy. The Pro Shot, the Pro Race, and the Super Bigshot solenoids can be used to create up to 600 hp in a single stage, and by that they mean all at once.

  • Hogans Racing Intake Manifolds Nos Fogger Nozzles Installed
    Remember the clocking thing? In order for the nozzles to spray into the intake port instead of back at the carb, they have to point straight down. Notice the jets on the table; each nozzle uses two.

  • Hogans Racing Intake Manifolds Bending Linkage Kit
    Working around the linkage, the first thing Thurmond did was rough in the bends. Each of the lines will mate to a distribution block in the center that also supports the solenoids.
