Just using the nos flow to cause a vacuum inside the filter.

Which then just draws more air in, might be a good way to spray a dry setup in a NA but it is not really going to help a turbo car which already causes a vacuum in the filter by using the turbo to suck in air.

Cool. I could juice my g/f's Firebird and if the motor blows, it's easily removable

so it's useless on our car?

ok so nitrous on our car wouldn't be helpful at all, or just using it like this? i know how nitrous works, i just didn't think about the turbo charger already pulling in the air

thanks,

eric

I mean, WHEN the motor blows. For the warranty, I'm sure they could detect use of nitrous, though

I would not spray nos thru the turbo

since you will just make the compressor side really cold while the exhaust side is very hot.

but the turbo wont last that long, that is what I am saying.

Do you really want to spray nos thru your maf sensor too? The maf will last about 30 seconds before it dies while spraying something like nos thru it.

I know, I was kidding. Like F&F is something to live by. They called NOS "NAWWZ"

with a hot turbo, how much of the heat is transferred to the incoming air?
