Should this only be used while not moving?

i say why you are dividing the nitrous up, get one to the intercooler, one to your very nice DP setup and then run a tube up to the driver , you know, just for fun!!



jk man, i also dynoed a car and sprayed a 5 pound bottle on the intercooler and it put down around 8 more hp. i would just use your direct port setup to cool the charge and not waste good expensive nitrous on the intercooler for such minimal gains. it takes a lot of nitrous to cool down the intercooler correctly, i would say a few pounds of solid spraying. thats 10-15 dollars a run. i would just spray it in the motor and save the nitrous.

Is the IAT sensor on your set up pre or post intercooler? If its post I'd think it could adjust for the cooler air and get the AFR back in range. If the IAT is pre intercooler maybe it should be moved.

Yup, some do draw through and some do blow through. If it is after the IC then shouldnt/couldnt the engine managment adjust for the increased air density? If its running on MAP with no IAT input for adjusments then it wouldnt.

I was going to put icewater in one of those sprayers, and spray it on the IC ,but they didn't want me dripping water all over the track

what do you think would happen if you somehow sprayed liquid nitrogen and froze your intercooler and ran it
