you got the ss s/c or what? if you have the ss s/c i think you gotta run a dry shot cause the fuel mixed with the nitrous will eat up the supercharger fins, at least thats the way with my supercharger for the j-bodys

With a custom plate between the intercooler and supercharger, could you spray a wet shot after the blower?

No, I have the 2.2 coupe so wet shot is my best option. I have no other mods as of yet (besides tint an a few interior neons). My next modifications will be a catback exaust system, new intake, wheel and tires and carbonfiber hood for weight reduction. After I get all of that I might start uprgrading the internals. No worries though, the highest shot I will give is a 50 and "maybe" 75 so I should be safe.

Well I am in Newfoundland (some of you might not even know this province exists) so as you can imagine it is hard to find this type of stuff around here and not to mention more expensive. When I priced a kit at one place down here it was $799 plus tax (15% tax here) so it runs pretty close to $1000. I will try to find a link to the exact kit.

I saw an Scion XB at Hot Import Nights with a eaton and he was spraying a wet shot through the intake so it was passing through the supercharged.

i heard it can eat away at the special coatings that are on the supercharger impellers and the linings of your cylinders...

Yes, I need to order the window switch, and purge valve before I acually use the nitrous. I'll see what the bottle pressure is like here ing the summer before I get the bottle heater.

Have you actually seen it? I have a feeling that's based on the earlier generation Eaton's. I spoke to the owner of Nytrex about it and they haven't had any issues with anyone spraying through the newer blowers at all. Supposedly it was the coating is what wears off, not the blades. I dunno, I could understand it happening, but I trust the sources I have that have not had this issue on the newer blowers.

doesn't matter, you'll still want a wamer. I live in FL and it sucked not having one for those first few weeks. spend the money now.

Really? I guess it is more necessary than I thought. Thanks for the tips. I got most of the install done now. Never had time to get pics during the process, got home from work an I had limited daylight. BUT I will still take pics of everything afterwards and explain how I did it and so-on.
