NOTE: Please keep negative comments to yourself, I’m merely documenting first hand experience with a kit many may have never heard of. I know because I searched and searched and found nothing.
Ok, I’m not new to nitrous in the slightest and as far as my GTO is concerned after lots of careful planning and thinking. I have decided to spray the GTO and for good reason. For me and this is just me, I feel that given the work area, cost, and maintenance for me nitrous is the way to go. Not to mention, if I decide the GTO just isn’t going to do it for me anymore. I can simply remove the system, sell the car, and then transfer it to another platform much easier and simpler then any F.I. kit. Plus, I only have to worry about the extra power, wear, and tear when I’m spraying or about to spray for racing events, and etc.
After doing a bit more research in systems and components I found a company called WON or “Wizard of Nitrous”. They are out of the U.K. and the stuff looks pretty trick and honestly the only thing I didn’t like about it was, well, the price. Then I stumbled upon a used kit on eBay and contacted WON about it. They gave me the thumbs up and said they’d assist me along the way with whatever updates the older (compared to their new stuff) system might need.
The car:
05’ GTO M6
Mods:
K&N Intake
Kooks 1-7/8 LT’s
SLP LM-1 Cat back
Diablew Tune
Recently aquired used Wizard Of Nitrous Street Blaster 150 kit.
Parts I already had on Hand from my last Nitrous endeavors:
- NX Remote bottle opener - Can't use it on the WON bottle,but I can use it on my back up NX bottle. I may however end up selling it for cheap.
- ZEX Programable TPS switch - Still not sure if I want to use it or not since I have a smaller more practical similar switch.
- FP HOBB switch
- Spare 10lb NX bottle - I was thinking of running this in tandem and mount it as a back up if the bottle is empty. However,I'm not sure if I can just use it in the WON setup. More to come on this later of course.
- Dual Dash pod
- Misc Nitrous lines
- Nitrous combination wrench
- NOS Billet Bottle bracket
- Earls steal braided fuel line ( the recommended upgrade )
- NX fuel rail adapter for FP gauage and nitrous fuel feed
- Misc wires, relays,etc
So this is what showed up:
- WON Bottle
- WON Solenoids
- WON Single nozzle - I am currently working with Trev @ WON to get the DP upgrade.
- WON Maximizer Progressive controller
- NOS Bottle warmer
- Unkown Billet Bottle bracket
- Misc wires,cables,relays,etc
To Get List:
- DP upgrade parts
- Window switch ( If I need it,I don't remember if the progressive controller handles that job or not )
- Solenoid brackets ( I'll most likely make these )
- Nitrous tune ( I just have to give the tuner a heads up )
- Lower range plugs
- Nitrous in car gauge ( electronic )
- Oil Pressure gauge
- Smokers kit for the ash tray
Is old and I’m not sure what it came off of, but for what I paid and what I got…I can’t complain.
I’m sending the solenoids and purge off to get checked out and if need be upgraded. I’m also going with the direct port upgrade as well. I think I may even port my intake while it’s off too.
