NOS: 4-Bolt Throttle Body Nitrous Plate Kits for GM LS Engines

If you’re running a GM LS-based engine and would like to add up to 250 additional horsepower, complete nitrous kits from NOS inject a little more power into that stock engine or a lot more power to that custom-built hot rod. Kits include jetting for 100, 125, and 150 additional horsepower, while the plates themselves can flow enough nitrous for 250 big HP.

Available for 4-bolt drive-by-wire or cable-operated throttle bodies in 90mm and 105mm plate sizes, these are “wet” plates. The additional fuel is added though the nitrous system, so there are no requirements for an injector upgrade (but you should always make sure that your fuel delivery system is adequate to support the expected power levels).

Features

  • Add up to 250 HP to GM LS engines.
  • Available for 4-bolt drive-by-wire or cable-operated throttle bodies (90 & 105mm plates).
