I'm installing the new Snow Performance Stage 3 water/meth kitl with dual nozzles. I was looking for a location to install the nozzles for perfect that distribution. After doing a lot of research I want to use dual nozzles for better atomization (2 smaller nozzles amotize better one bigger one) This presented a problem there isn't enough space to install 2 nozzles on my intake tube in front of the throttle body without making it look like a rig. So we decided do install them on the intake. We looked at the tapping 2 holes on the top of the intake where the humps are since I've seen a few nitrous set up running this way, but I've just spent 3 weeks polishing my intake to match the Paxton kit and would really hate to see a couple tubes coming out of my intake. So we decitde to go underneath the intake (see location in pic). So give me some opinions. You guys think it will work well?

i would think that the ports closer to the nozzles would get more meth:dontknow: i think they should be beffore the t/b

I thought of that too, but if you really look at the intake the front port get more air too... It wouldn't matter if it's in front or behind the TB it moving with the air flow under boost so it should dispurse evenly into both banks.

i see what your saying, but it seems like the further away the nozzels the better/longer it would mix. dont listen to me though, wait for one of the big boys

They explained it to me this way. The further away the colder the intake charge which the AIT sensor picks up the drop in temp and tells the PCM reduce fuel because it reading denser air which is really not why I'm installing water/meth. I'm installing for extra higher octane fuel, and to add timing rather than adding boost. We figure that we can squeeze an additional 50-60 hp out of the motor. We'll see... I'm hoping to get it installed and dyno tuned next week.

We (dcperformance) and me :D , tried several ways of introducing the 50/50-load of water-meth into the system. We tried under the intake just before the T/B. We put it under so you couldn't see it.
But when Chris Jensen (TUNER) put that bad-boy in front of the supercharger..WHOA!
Dyno went crazy! The picture your looking at is of that set-up.
There's a curved-pipe (U-Turn) that comes from the air/box and goes to the back of the huffer. In the middle of that curve is the nozzle.

Go to the center-top (second pic), the black line you see is the meth&water going to the nozzle..single, but big. I can use as much as a half of bottle (windshield bottle) at the drags...6/runs.

Here's the best picture, before buff-out, it still had a satin finish.

One thing to remember...a stock tune will read the lower AIT temp and reduce fuel.....your custom tune will have a different attitude..;)

Not really changing the tune per say. I will just be adding back timing through the split second controller. The PCM tune willl remain the same.
