I'm totally for it if I have a built motor!

 

I didnt think the Haltech controlled N20 yet?

Thats an awesome set-up, I look forward to your results!

 

hey i just noticed it chill out

 

I always thought about ways I would do things different. Lots of fast cobras in the area, could of done a procharge setup with a good 150shot. But what hit me the best was like a killer 4.2 stroker and a 2stage nitrous setup. Now I know the vq is no ls1/ls2 but theres guys in the area hitting out 350-400shots. Geeez I cant imagine

 

but it does help right? thee has to be some gains. How much is an average gain from it?

 

Not as much as if you were to actually spray the nitrous directly into the intake tract

 

can you guys plz post pix of bottle location?

 

anywhere from 30whp-75whp....depends on outside temps, boost, setup, etc.

 

how are you guys turning on the nitrous on top of boost? is it set by the EMS your using to go at WOT or a certain boost psi? or do you use a switch? I ask cause i dont want it running 24/7 on top of the boost..

 

i know a few guys that swear by them (intercooler spray kits) on their STI's / EVO's, but here it seems skeptical on the Z side..

 

b/c if you spray the same amount of nitrous into the intake, you get alot more power. Granted the intercooler spray is safer, but as you can see from all the posts, we don't like wasting sh*t. lol. Alot of the subie/evo guys use em cuz it makes their setup more efficient...especially when you still have a top mount intercooler that gets heat soaked quickly (subies). I'm starting to see more meth/water injection in place of the intercooler sprayer with all the subie/evo guys. meth is alot cheaper than nitrous (refills)

 

I have been wanting to do this for the past year now to help out on the top end which is pretty non existent with my setup but after some research decided to hold off until I get my engine built.

My plan for the new year is to finish my build which will start soon, finish my S/C install (stage 4) + sprayer (got free with the kit) and add some nitrous (not sure on the amount yet). Hopefully finish it off with a Haltech system or temporary UTEC depending on the cash I have left over from the whole ordeal.

Looking forward to some nice numbers from this, def nothing near what some of you TT guys are putting down but a big boost for me

 

so y do some FI guy's choose nitrous instead of meth too add on top of boost???

 

I have the UTEC and the N20 is set to come on at a specified RPM and shut off at a specified RPM. With my setup I have a button that I hold so that even during the specified RPM range and the N20 is spraying, I can release the button and it shuts off the N20. I have the button just in case the car gets sideways, all I have to do is let go of the button. Without the button, if I was heading for the wall and was within the set RPM range the N20 would continue to spray. The button just makes me feel

 

can u run a Y-connector of nitrous to hit the intercooler & intake together at same time??? has anyone tried or thought of that?? wouldnt that give a more constant flow of lower intake temp seeing how the intercooler is the start???

 

i wouldnt want mine on 24/7.. i guess thats where arming switches come into play..

 

Correct...you have to have an arming switch to turn the system on. Then you have it set how ever you want.

 

alot of meth kits, up until recently were troublesome. Can't remember what kit, but they are starting to get alot more safety features and are becoming more mainstream which usually means better quality. Something that just cools the air and is cheaper without any trouble is usually why ppl choose nitrous intercooler sprayers...but all that is starting to change as the meth kits progress. Me personally, I won't ever use meth....All I need is nitrous and boost....

 

There are alot of guys in my comunity that run a alky injection from devils own that is specific to the 3800 series motor that we are running. Most of which are doing the most stupid thing I ever heard of by running washer fluid that contains methonal (i think or ethonal) actually have some success. They are sending the fluid though the supercharger to cool the blower and then enter the LIM. This has been hard to tune when it first came into our market. I have heard that it is easier to tune with turbos, but you tell me. They have a kit that comes on at a certain boost level and increases the flow of the mixture as boost increases. I think it is called a progressive kit. Either way that type of system has been around for a while and has gotten better. I am sure you will not be stupid and run washer fluid through your engine.
