tapping the nitrous into a silicone coupler is never a good idea from what ive seen… it can rip

just tap it into an intake pipe to be sure

and that is way way too close to the TB…

Tapping the coupler seems like SUCH a bad idea…

I’m going to build a cold side charge pipe from tube and weld a bung on that…

Yah putting in the coupler = bad news…

I would just make sure the bung is shallow, to allow the shark tip to penetrate well into the airstream.

Should be a blast! :snky:

~75 degree cooler blower temps, much more low end torque, plus 50 more hp = 🙂

normally i would completely agree…

but A 75 shot on a 2k# car with a super flat torque curve minus whale be a 150 shot on a 3500# car.

Touché , I just got tired of nitrous, having to run a bottle heater and getting fills is a pita, and since Newman doesn’t street race nor hit the strip, I wonder how much use it will get,
