a 50shot shouldn't blow the intake manifold...

The car drives fine... i gotta check teh fuel system because we get a CEL every time we spray.

lol wow push button nitrous...does the background blur when you press it?

you have your nozzle awefully close to the TB...isn't the recommended distance about 6-8 inches from the TB and before the MAF?

do you have any issues getting a nice strong spray under nitrous? i bet with the bottle mounted sideways like that your nitrous hits the side of the bottle under WOT.

also, is that a wideband gauge? whats your a/f like under nitrous?

I bet your getting a lean code. My car ran lean wit just the CAI. I would do the SS/SC injector swap soon. I wouldn't doubt your gonna hurt the motor wit more sprays. Not trying to be pessemistic, but I don't want you to hurt your car.

By the way, I would listen to Ioninja also. He's been doing really great wit his car lately.

I thought that you have to have the bottle facing the front of the car and the frogger after the maf with 6-8 inches before the TB.

yeah u can tune it with HPtuners which is available. ive seen a lot of cars blow the manifold do to the nitrous setup. just be safe, anything can happen. yeah u are prolly running lean. i would get a wideband so u can see when u spray. but im sure u can eliminate it with HPtuners. check it out.

i get confused on the before/after terminology but no you don't want the nitrous or fuel going through the MAF...you would definitely ruin your MAF with that.

then it would be after the maf on the way to the tb? If you do it before maf the fuel would go through the maf and not be a good thing ahah, if air filter oil hurts it imagine wat fuel and nitrous would do haha!

Instructions from Holly said that the NOS bottle is to be installed sideways in the trunk of the vehicle.

I even called in to make sure.
