VENOM-1000 Nitrous System - This computer-controlled dry nitrous kit is the safest "plug-and-play" nitrous system money can buy. The VENOM-1000 will automatically shut itself off if it detects that the engine is running too lean (preventing engine damage). This nitrous system adds 100 horsepower on demand and automatically regulates the air-fuel ratio by pulsing the fuel injectors when nitrous is being administered. I chose to do a "stealthy install" hiding all hoses and wires, using plastic wire loom covering, mounting the solinoids in a semi-hidden location next to the battery, hiding the computer module in the glovebox, hiding the bottle in the spare tire compartment, and installing all switches inside the ash tray compartment. I also installed the nozzle in the airbox so that the MAF sensors would be utilized to yield a better Air-Fuel Ratio. Great care was taken during the entire process for a secure and stealthy install.

NOS Remote Bottle Opener was installed with the VENOM nitrous kit so that the nitrous bottle can be easily opened and closed by pressing a button from the driver's seat. This way, I do not have to open the trunk in order to open the bottle valve by hand before each nitrous use. Additionally, this bottle opener/closer enables me to shut off the flow of nitrous to the engine in the rare occasion that a solinoid malfunctions and does not close. (Back to Top)

NOS Nitrous Filter was installed to prevent foreign debris from getting clogged in the solinoids. (Back to Top)

NOS Purge Kit was installed and set up so that the purge is vented out of dual outlets located inside the nostrils of the Ram Air hood. During a purge, dual streams of nitrous are shot outside the front of the hood in a "V" pattern. The purpose of this purge kit is to expell the residual air that is present inside the nitrous lines before a nitrous run. Additionaly, after the bottle is shut off, the pressure that still exists in the lines can be released so that stress does not remain on the solinoids. (Back to Top)

NX Automatic Bottle Heater was installed so that the nitrous bottle can be heated up to achieve the optimal operating pressure. This heater system is pressure controlled so that it automatically turns on when neccessary to heat the bottle up to 950-1050 psi for the best nitrous results. (Back to Top)

Custom Nitrous Switch Panel was installed under the ash tray lid for a stealthy "mission-control" look and easy accessibility. This switch panel was custom designed by a friend and built out of black ABS plastic to fit the ash-tray area of late model F-bodies. Custom switches were added (including the VENOM switch display) for a complete install. (Back to Top)

GM WS6 Ram-Air Induction airbox assembly was installed to improve airflow and increase engine power output to that of the WS6 Ram-Air option package. (Back to Top)

SLP Ram-Air H.O. Hood was installed to make Ram-Air fully functional. (Back to Top)

Removed Baffles from the Ram-Air hood "nostrils" to improve air flow and increase horsepower by getting rid of the restrictive fiberglass plate. Cold outside air is now rammed directly into the airbox/filter with no restriction. Baffles were removed with a dremel tool (and sanded) prior to painting the hood. Airflow has DRASTICALLY improved! The flow rate was tested before and after the mod using a high-powered air compressor. (Back to Top)

Direct-Flo Airbox Lid by LS1 Motorsports was installed, replacing the restrictive factory air lid and air silencers in order to further improve airflow to the engine. (Back to Top)

K&N Filtercharger (high-flow air filter) was installed increasing the flow rate over the stock air filter. (Back to Top)

BMR Shock Tower Brace was installed to stiffen up the front end and to eliminate tower deflection under increased load. (Back to Top)

Borla Stainless Steel Exhaust System was installed by "Bodie's" who performs exhaust work for the world famous racing engineer, John Lingenfelter in Decatur, Indiana. This aircraft-grade T-304 "corrosive-free" stainless steel system is the best exhaust money can buy, offering a million-mile warranty, extremely low-restriction flow rate, and a macho sound to match. This system also includes a "tunable volume control" via bolt-in restriction plates, of which I have completely removed resulting in uninhibited exhaust flow and a guttural sound that can wake the dead! (CLICK HERE to hear Borla!) (Back to Top)

Suncoast Creations "Chrome" Decals have been installed for aesthetic purposes, specifically to accent the embossed "Trans Am" logo on the doors, the "firebird" logo on the front license plate cover, and the "Ram Air" logos on the hood. Additionally, a GM WS6 Rear Emblem was added to signify the addition of the WS6 Ram Air System. I have also added the "Last of the Breed" emblem on the nose of the car to signify my vehicle as being built in in the final production year of 2002. Additionally, I added a chrome windshield banner, chrome VENOM decals to the rear fenders, and a VENOM decal on the Airbox Lid. (Back to Top)

Passport Escort 8500 Radar/Laser Detector w/ SmartCord™ has been installed. This high-quality "ticket preventer" is the most accurate detector on the market, and has been proven to alert the driver ahead of all other radar detectors currently available. This unit is a bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for... and when you're driving a "cop magnet," you can't cheap out!
