Nitro assisted Turbo setup
Turbo Mini Forums

I'm thinking of adding a 5 or 10 bhp nitro kit on my turbo engine to increase spooling and speed up the turbo faster and maybe add 5 or 10 bhp of nitro on the top end for "intercooling" purposes.

I have a few questions:

- Should I add one or two nitro nozzles on the turbo manifold?
- Where should the nozzle(s) be positioned?
- What engine management system to use (ie megajolt/megasquirt II or else)?

Any positive/negative experiences with this kind of setup are more then welcome. Example setups / pics much appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I alway thought that you needed to jet at the nozzle as the presure drop across the solenoid could freeze it open. (not that I know anything about this)

Thanks for the quick reply (been posting my message during work as well...:)

Indeed i meant nitrous.

I am still wondering where to put the injector on the manifold. There seems to be little space to put the injector somewhere in the middle..

I might be able to remove the vaccum take-off for the brake servo (and create a new take off point somewhere else on the manifold) and create some kind of adaptor for the nitrous/fuel injector which then uses the old vaccum take-off.

i have 2 injectors in my manifold

Ahh, makes sense, cheers Peter.

dannerr!



this was the reccomded set up by The Wizards of Nos.

The fuel and N20 into the same injecter, the N20 firing behind the fuel to blast/attonize it.

Works well although i have hardly used it.

The dual-injector setup doesn't suit the A-series... In some applications (like webers) it's the easiest option - but it ISN'T the best...
The only way is as per the picture that JF has just thrown up. Nice and simple, and no charge-stealling issues (well, no more than with a carb anyway)!

Put simply, if you do it with a nozzle in each tract, then the inside cylinders take 540-crank-degrees worth of nitrous/fuel, wheras the outer cylinders take 180-crank-degrees worth... Makes for a slightly un-balanced mixture....
