NOOBISH question on nitrous

So I have one of them there fuel rails

and that there fuel rail is tapped for nitrous feed lines. Theres a fitting in the middle underneath and one at the end over yonder by cylinder 1 as such


now this may seem like a stupido questiono (practicing my spanish) but I run WET nitrous through here right?

I'm confused because wet kits shoot fuel and nitrous through the TB. So if I decide to go into this fuel rail, should I just spray nitrous into it?! wont that make for a shitty mixture? anyone else running something similar? I can't find any answers on it since it seems everyone taps the IM TB or the intake. Any ideas gentleman?

Re: NOOBISH question on nitrous

you do not want to run it through the fuel rail. you want the nitrous to atomize and mix in with the o2 so it would be best to spray it in at the throttle body. nitrous is a gas not a fluid so you never want it going into the fuel rail. now there is direct port injection but that basicly spray nitrous next to the injector allowing it to still disperse into the mix. if you were to get it into the fuel rail and it essentially became a liquid that could be very bad cause you will never know for sure what the mix is and I could see it being extremly easy to nitrous hicup with liquid n2o and blow the engine

Re: NOOBISH question on nitrous

see i always thought wet was safer then dry. I also thought that wet nitrous premixed fuel and liquid nitrous before the injectors.

Re: NOOBISH question on nitrous

with nitrous setup's nothing actaully mixes with the fuel before it comes out of the injectors and gets atomized. it mixes in the air flow before then injectors when it is sprayed in at the throttle body and it mixes in just as it is coming out of the nozzle of the injector on direct port so the nitrous is never actaully in the actaul fuel line/rail itself
