beams are mysterious animals from the jungles from far far FarAway, they are elusive little critters that steal into the night, hiding in the shadows, taking away everyone's 18 year old daughters whom will be enslaved and put to work polishing piston sleeves and giving back massages....TO US TEH GODS!!1!

breakthrough engine with advanced mechanism system: BEAMS
Toyota now calls it VVTi & VVTLi

Well I'm not, I've reinsured my car so nos may be an interesting experience. I've found this... Few Items for sale

Finding out more info at the moment, wondering if it'll be suitable?

Edolbrock Fuel and Nitrous solenoids
Nitrous Express Nozzles, Brackets and Jets including 15ft. line from bottle to nitrous
Zex 10lb. Bottle and Bottle Heater
Zex Safety blowdown Tube
NOS Nitrous Pressure Regulator

Any opinions?

Remember that these intake manifolds have Velocity stacks. If you shoot the traditional wet shot at a single point like after the throttle body, then fuel might puddle in the bottom of the intake manifold while the Nitrous goes into the combustion chamber.

I would call NOS or NX and talk to there tech department. They have more experience dealing with different nitrous set up than any of us. I might be wrong

go direct port,a nozzle for each intake port with cooler sparkplugs...if you can afford it go progressive and buy a control unit
