Re: Nitrous solenoid question

Thanks for the info...i found that out a few minutes ago. Here is a question for you. I am having issues with the person I bought my kit through. I am thinking of switching to a different brand of solenoids. I know my oriface size on both the nitrous and fuel solenoids. I long as i go as big or slightly bigger so that i don't lean one or the other out I should be ok.....shouldn't I? As long as my supply to the jets is at or above what the kit was designed for the jets should meter it down...is my thinking correct?

Yes, you're fine. Most of the solinoids are sourced from the same company anyways now that NOS no longer has the exclusive.

Re: Nitrous solenoid question

Yes when picking out new solenoids I suggest the NX solenoids.Yes one company may buy there solenoids from the same manafacture but it does not mean that they are the same part or quality.I see companys all the time trying to claim theres are the same and it being a bunch of bull to get you to buy.I have a box right here beside my desk with different companys solenoids in it.I bought them to break them down to see what they are made of.There not all the same.

I work in the rotating electrical world (starters and alternators), and can vouch for having more than one client and those clients having different quality standards.
