I dont understand why people (z04) get so mad when someone asks a question with a new thread?? wht is the problem with that?? ive been loging in everyday this week and the same F.u.c.k.in*in.threads are going around (whts the age of our z..., titan vs 350z, and etc...) if we cant ask a question here ..then wht is the point of the forum???
dude just relax ....if u dont wanna answer the question then just ignore it..

 

Meh, I see we have some pissy old timers in this forum.

 

I also read quite a few pages, and i didn't see intercooler spraying from nitrous. I would also like to say i'm newb but this is my 2nd z. I bought my 1st lehmans sunset -pre order and had it by feb 03. supercharged and all the other goodies that just came out in 03. Now my 05 rev up, 1st vortech, my shop did the RND and relayed info back to vortech.
I guess what i'm saying is i know what the intercooler spray does. But does anyone on here have it, and what kinda gains have they seen out of it on a 350z. I guess i will buy it and relay the info back! I just didn't want to waste my 4 for a couple hp and to look cool because i have nitrous. I don't want to buy for the wrong reasons! I did not mean to get snippy, but i see were alot of newb get on and post that do not know and people jump all over them! Let the newbs ask the question, and if you know where there is a post and or a legit answer to it, point them in the right direction. We are here as not only as a community but a family w/ the same interests! OUR Z'S!
If you don't want to be friendly and help someone out, pass by the post and don't blink an eye at it!
I'll go by the kit in the next mnth and post back if it's a go or a no!

 

If you search the FI section you will find threads on it. Here's one I found.."Any doubters of IC sprayers LOOKS"...I don't know how to link a thread so thats the title to the thread I found..I know there's more..Try searching under Snows

 

Thank you!

 

this one is proven fellas .

Proven where?

The greater the differential in ambient temperature from intercooler intake temperature, the better result you will have.

What you spray makes a difference. Spraying CO2 helps temps, but getting CO2 in the intake tract can displace oxygen, resulting in power loss. Spraying nitrous also helps temp, but again you often contaminate the intake charge and it is this partial ingestion of nitrous that leads to the power bump, more so than the temperature difference. Spraying water will work and if you ingest a little H2O aerosol, no big deal, BUT the cooling effect is not as great and will be minimized in humid conditions (less evaporation). So dry hot conditions will respond well to a water spray.

As some have said, depending on where you live, this may likely be more trouble than its worth.

Hope that helps.

 

my nitrous express ic sprayer worked....about 400rwhp without it...431 with it! tune for it and your golden imo...

 

I plan to complete my TT Build and then add an CO2 intercooler spray bar for fun. I purchased a kit and its been sitting in my garage for months. Once installed. I'll let you know how well or poorly it worked. I can't see how it could hurt, but we'll see if its worth anything.
Before adding it, I will have a Methanol kit also, so I will have 2 coolers added in total.

 

The more i've read and seen, the meth injection seems to be a better way to go. ( I'm sure i'm going to hear about this, because i shot it down in the beggining!) But anywho, i'm even more confused now! I don't know wich way to go? The meth injection seems to be real nice all around w/ tune. 8-10 + on your oct. better running temp, and cool down.
Nitrous spray bar, cooler air intake, but, possible nitrous penitration wich could be detramental to the engine!

Sorry guy's, but the more i learn about both systems and all the help and answers i get, the more confused on wich way to go? I wish i had the $ to waste and try both out!

 

I actually have a 10lb cryo2 c02/nitrous tank and sprayer bar that has been sitting around forever. I should probably sell it for cheap.

 

I would go for it if your getting the kit that covers a lot of the inter cooler surface area. We had a 2017 Ford Mustang ecoboost the other day with a boost max running 276 to the wheels we got a bottle of NO2 and sprayed down the intercooler before making another run (and this was after about 4-5 runs with the thing glowing red already) we did the pull and it made 330 hp the the wheels. Theirs not a lot of things out their that cost about $300-500 for the kits and will automatically give you 54 hp on a run. I'd do it.

 

Good answer but I doubt the OP will ever see it. Hasn't been on the forum in 7 years and the thread is 9 years old.

 

I know it's been 14 years, but i really want to hear how this story ended. I too am installing a water sprayer.
