so cal shops, that shorten nitrous line??

Anybody in So Cal, no of anywhere I can get my line shortened, it's like three feet to long, I'm sure that's causing a drop in power.

Thanks matt

I disagree, anytime you have some sort of pressure operated system, whatever it may be, and the pressure is set at a certain psi, the longer the line or feed, the less pressure you will get, maybe it's not a dramatic power loss, but I would like every little bit that I can out of my shot.

Any decent muscle car shop that sells SS braided line will be able to cut the line and sell you a new Earl's fitting. Coincidently, it would probably be easier and more cost effective to just buy slightly bigger jets.

The change would be minute, it wont matter. It will be no different than varients in temperature of the nitrous day to day. Your talking 1000 psi going into a very small line trough tiny jets....the pressure backs way up at the jet regardless....(not too argue)

Not at all man, that's what this board is for, I guess it just boils down to, I'm dissapointed with my kits performance, but I can't complain, I don't have a purge, or a heater. I have been wanting them for some time, but just can't break down and buy them.

yup, the old purge and heater will help the performance way more than shortening that line

I've been waiting and trying to find a used set up, but I guess I'm just gonna have to break down and buy new.
