Where do you have your sprayer attached in the intact track ? Before or after S/C (after i assume) ?

Also, did you just plumb your fuel line from the fuel rail vent ? This is something i have been contemplating

 

How exppensive is a refill, and where do you get it done? Do you have to pull the bottle out and take it somewhere, or can they refill it in the car?

Is a 100 shot a reference to the number of ounces of gas, or the number of seconds it will run at WOT on the button?

How many shots or how long can you run it on one 100 shot charge?

IN TFTF they show the bottles emptying on one run, is that right?

 

Nice thread!

 

For those that are contemplating NOS, the location pre IC aids cooling the IAT's. It does diminish the the effectiveness of the NOS but when you are running large NOS jets to compensates who cares?

I am surprised that we do not see a NOS spray nozzle external over the IC. On a hot day before a good run a shot of NOS over the IC could help reduce the IAT's.

Also I here tell that there is a secondary system in the works that will inject NOS post IC for even more NOS HP?

 

I would have thought it would have been more efficient post intercooler. so as not to have to push fuel through it and give it a point to collect in. who knew.

 

If you read my post

I stated that it is better to mount the NOS nozzles after the IC. Unless you are actively seeking to use the NOS as a IC pre-cooler together as al power enhancer.

One of the Pro's to this type of installation is Nozzle access for fast jet changes. Although there are Nozzles with remote jets instead of the type used in the posted pictures. The cons to this type of installation is less effective HP results. All that means is you need much more NOS to compensate the routing through the IC and intake manifold to get the same results if the Nozzles were located closer the intake cylinder runner. The other con is very bad NOS distribution because of the OEM design of the intake manifold. On the MINI the absolute best performing installation for NOS is direct port injection.

NOS

Oh oh wait does my on custom NOS system count? :ihih: :lol:

Mike you and I are getting to old.. Fast and Geriatrics :cornut:

Oh wait you are really old.....hahahaha

 

I not only slap the "kids" on occasional acceleration test :wink: but I love the looks on their face when I can out bump'um with my stereo. My subs have Stinger Farad Caps each .They are housed in what looks like a MINI NOS bottle. Even the lines look like braided lines and AN fittings.I really need to get a NOS decal on it just for fun. The only thing about the system is with 12 speakers, sub box with *two 8's and 4 amps is the addition weight of about 200+lbs added to the MINI.:frown2:




*For the Audiophiles I choose 8's in a acoustically sized sealed box for the quick response and snap bass rather the longer sounding bass of a single or larger size sub. With the help of a friend we determined the best frequency response using the aprox. value of the volume of air space within the MINI with me and one passenger and then using a Phonic Audio Analyzer he was able to set my cross over point for close to best real time sound and bass.

Stereo Cap:

Electrolytic capacitors are devices used to smooth DC ripple (as best as possible) and retain DC power levels. Ripple is the result of voltage transients, for example your amp drawing power to push the speaker during a bass hit. This by itself puts a strain on a cars electrical system. A capacitor helps take that strain away by being an additional source of power when the amp demands it.

I know off topic.... and you thought NOS was complicated???:shocked:
