Very nice car. I followed ur website when putting in my turbo kit... very detailed instructions. I don't care if it's auto..it'll prolly still work my car

Old car: 1999 Sentra SE-L Turbo: USDM sr20de, t25 turbo, hot shot intercooler kit, BIG ass fmic, nismo fpr, autometer fp gauge/boost gauge, mbc set at stock boost for now! 7psi= more traction>11psi=less traction.
I find the hood scoop weird, but all in all thats a nice and clean setup. Have you done a dyno run yet? I'd like to know how this one does. Thumbs up for job well done!

After I first installed the turbo kit, the under-hood temperatures were very high. Since the intake was in the battery area, I wanted to cool the engine compartment. During acceleration I observed over 135F using an OBD-II Scanner (blue line in the upper part of the bottom image).
I decided to install a scoop and hood vents to help cure this. The scoop is a Camaro cowl-induction scoop (from JC Whitney) turned around the wrong way. I chose it because it fit between the windshield washer sprayers and the length was OK.
How do you like having the 50 shout? I was talking to (Nismodriver) about trying it on my car.
With a turbo car, the JWT nitrous setup is used to spool up the turbo very fast. When drag racing, I brake hard on the line and feather the throttle until just before the car starts to creep. Then I floor the gas and slide my foot off the brake to launch. This produces about 3.5# of boost at 3200rpm off the line.
The nitrous is controlled by the ECU (containing the JWT nitrous add-on board). When the ECU senses that the throttle position sensor is wide open, it starts to spray. When the ECU senses that the MAF is maxed out, it stops spraying. So... all I do is arm the nitrous, purge on the line, and launch. The nitrous takes care of itself.
With street tires, the nitrous is useless since it just spins the tires, the rpm screams to 7000, and the trans shifts.
Aren't those injectors running out soon? Or is it a wet shot?
A stock MAF maxes out about the same time as 370cc injectors max out. This corresponds to about 10# of boost. Running both 9# of boost and nitrous together, it could easily exceed the capacity of either of them, go lean, and detonate.
However, the JWT nitrous setup (dry) monitors the MAF and stops spraying when it maxes out. The nitrous just spools up the turbo very quickly, and only sprays off the line.
