Im thinking about spraying my intercooler with NOS .Do you think its worth anything or am i wasting my time I have a front mount on it .
 
Put alcohol injection on it instead...Plenty of DIY information out there. HTH Scott
 
razors kit is awsome- search for it on here- i cant wait till i have the money for it
 
You'll pick up some power if you spray nitrous INTO the intercooler. :D
 
On the outside of it right ,I already tried to nos in the motor blew two head gaskets .

Do me a favor. Its called "NITROUS", not "nos". Thank you.:)
 
My buddy Tom bought a sticker at the nats for his car, it reads

"Nitrous is like a hot chick with an STD.. you know ya wanna hit it, but are afraid of the consequences":D


On a side note, nothing wrong spraying nitrous, as long as there is ample octane and your watching your tuneup like a hawk.

To spray outside the IC.. thats a waste of time.
 
Do me a favore it's really called NITROUS OXIDE. If your going to try and correct sombody try doing it correctly.

Do you really think it's a waste of time ,There wouldn't be a benefit to cooling the intercooler with it.

Dont believe me. Take it to the track and find out for yourself. Easy. The experiment will cost ya a bottle. altho by the question you state, you need other areas attended to first. One is scantool and the other is octane.

Also.... start doing some reading.. lots and lots of reading through this board and familiriaze yourself with what and how. Taking out a set of HG's can be prevented if there is a knowledge base. And it takes time.

Your question of spraying NOS(nitrous) on the IC is ricey. And the answers given fringe on its ricey'ness.



I'll give you an example of proper use.. example..

"My car runs on C16 fuel at 28 PSI and after monitoring intake air temps I notice they are running at 170 degrees crossing the traps. Can I use nitrous to cool down the IC so that temperature is brought down?"

See the diff? ;)

It's not that i don't beleave you ,Im just looking for some advice.i know the car pulls harder when the intercooler is cold .I was just thinking if you keep the intercooler cold with the nitrous it would pull hard through the whole run.The only fuel I run is 100% C16 so detonation shouldn't be a problem I hope

I don't doubt you Im just looking for advice and the best way to get that is to ask question's.
I just figured if you could keep the intercooler cold by spraying nitrous on it it would make more power .
 
trust razor- he makes the best alky kit on the market for TRs, and hes a very knowledgeable guy- when i was a noobe last year i learned alot from his posts. and alot of these guys arent 15 year old kids like on other forums- they are older experienced guys so like razor said- look at the context of the question befor you ask it- i picked up fast on that one too :)
 
ajt86, thanks.

Andy, guess the fact there is a 10 post count under your name, has a little to do with it.

Spend some time reading... it will start "clicking" in after a while. It took me like two months after I initially bought my TTA of reading a few hours a nite. The search feature is a tremendous asset.. And that way the questions dont come across.. well like a newb :). And stay away from the "NAWZ" :D until you have a handle on this type of car and its engine management. In other words.. if/when you get it to run low 12's high 11's.. then contemplate the experiments.
