sharkster,

Doesn't the water system add about fifty pounds? And isn't the water in the tank hell on weight transfer in the turns.

If you want to spool those big turbo's of your's fast, put the nitrous into the intake system with a progressive nitrous controller .............. not on the intercoolers.

Un uh! I have it coming out of my windsheild washer resevoir Might as well use it for something lol... Pump is about 3 pounds. Lines are next to nothing. So no real weight added.... I'm only using it to circumvent me getting/using crap gas and for cleaning out my injectors and plugs.

I disbanded with the nitrous idea over the intercoolers. 40 pounds extra and it lasts only a few runs... I'm going to do custom intercoolers instead. The nitrous stuff you're doing makes sense but it's more power than I want... I'm already breaking loose with all 4 at 50

sharkster,

How long do yo think that wiper tank will last?

I don't know if things have changed much over the last two years with these water injectors. PorschePhD and myself both looked into this and decided not to use it. One of the problems at the time was the water injector located right before that sensor as shown on your pic. It was raising havoc.

Hey Sharky, the nitrous intercooler sprayers really do work and i see you said you did away witht he nitrous or idea.. But honestly, if you do as planned or even get the intercooler mike i believe at cargraphic was talking about, it should be more than sufficient for running hard and cooling.. You probably already know all of this though haha, but then you can always add the nitrous sprayer to that if its not enough, hopefully that will not be the case

It's lasted a week which is good enough for me These things have gotten better since then.. indeed 9ff was able to make their 240mph run thanks to the same kit I have. It's dual-stage and shots a "little" at 15psi.. and then fully @ 25psi. Runs smooth as can be...

Hey there... thanks man and drop me an Email and I'll see what I can do on the lip for you. You have to have a GT2 nose to use it though.... It is absolutely lower than the GT2 stock lip tho.
