i was thinking about getting one until i looked into it and found out that it can make the car lean out slightly. you are making more power without more fuel

I agree with Gravy. I looked into this setup a long time ago and decided that it was better to just spray directly. There were a few cars that i read about that would spike lean when the kit was activated and I think that part of that was the Nitrous was making its way into the engine through the air filter. Just spray a small shot and tune it accordingly. Hondata and others have fuel enrichment and Nitrous control features.

i have it with a sidewinder manifold so the nitrous cant get the turbo and i have made around 25whp just off the dyno with it

have not used it with my new dyno numbers and 1/4miles times but theres a gain and the dyno tells it , when the track open back up ill she how much it change the the trap speed they say its a 40whp gain when u over 60mph but who knows about that

Thats pretty impressive. I feel that it would be more consistent if you just sprayed directly into the engine. Was there any inconsistency in your tuning? And how exactly did you tune for it since you arent always using it?

on they dyno when you used it, you should have been going over 60mph. not unless you are tuning in only 1st gear, which i seriously doubt it. you just conflicted yourself.

Im sure he is referring to forward motion where the air passing over the fins of the IC help the cooling effect.

with most turbo cars u tune rich any how so if u tune for 11:9-12:1 air/fuel so have the fuel allready there for the add whp off the cooler air , but as any one would know the most gain would be in the summer any how, i know i dont have to say why
