ok...i know with all the right safty parts and such everyone says nitrous is safe for engines...but ive been thinking, when the nitrous flows into the motor, isnt all that hp and tourqe coming from only one cylender...it only makes sense that it will ignight in the first cylender it hits....either way the power wouldnt be distributed evenly throughout the motor...

Re: nitrous safety
nitrous mixes with the incoming air and goes to all cylinders. If it went to one cylinder then all your air would be going to one cylinder. Never heard of a one cylinder car engine. :)Comment

Re: nitrous safety
Actually it all depends on where you have the spray nozzle mounted and the design of your intake manifold. I read this article one time where these guys took off an intake manifold and sprayed nitrous through it via the nozzle mounted in the intake. Sure enough most of the nitrous was coming out of the first 2 ports, which means the 2 cylinders were taking 90% of the load. Just somethin to think about for you nitrous guys...Comment

Re: nitrous safety
so they sprayed nitrous through an intake that has no engine attached to it? Yea that is going to make it go to the 2 cylinders because there is no vacuum there or engine sucking it in...Originally posted by mlsFiT
Spraying nitrous like that doesn't prove anything. Nitrous is going to all cylinders or there would be some crazy fuel issues in cylinders.Comment

Re: nitrous safety
The nitrous is going to flow to all the cylinders. Once the first two have their air/fuel/nitrous mix, the valves are going to close. The pressure of incoming air/nitrous/fuel (if wet kit) mix has to go somewhere, and it will go wherever there is less pressure, in this case where ever an intake valve opens up. The mixture doesn't have a choice when the intake is attached to the motor. It can either go into the open intake port, thus into a cylinder, or sit in the intake and wait on the next port to open. And at 3000+ RPM, this wont take long enough for anybody here to care. It can't all just line up and wait to get in cylinders 1 and 2 and refuse to go to the rest.~Chris<br />1999 Hugger Orange Camaro<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/273836\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/273836</a> <br /><br />†…faith…hopeComment

Re: nitrous safety
yeah your right I didnt take the vacuum produced into consideration. It was indeed an article in a reputable magazine though...Comment

Re: nitrous safety
Sorry if that sounded like I was being rude. I just re-read it, and I said alot of the same stuff over and over. Sounded like I was talking down to somebody. I didn't mean for it to sound that way, it's still 85 degrees in this office at 10:30PM. Miserable today dude. Again, sorry if anybody took it that way.~Chris<br />1999 Hugger Orange Camaro<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/273836\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/273836</a> <br /><br />†…faith…hopeComment

Re: nitrous safety
i was just thinking, i doubt it spreads completely evenly, so some of the cylenders have to be taking more of the load...Comment
