Wouldn't it be more efficient to inject the nitrous before the intercooler???

Default Besides, isn't NOS already really cold. If anything putting it before the IC would warm it up some.

That's the beauty of NOS, you don't have to worry about hot air cause it's all cold.

yea I dont know if Ill trust that I mean I know Im new to the AudiWorld but I had a friend that used to run a twin turbo 300ZX with NOS and ended up putting 3 of the 6 pistons through the hood (and about another 10 feet in the air) while we were doin some street testing. Scariest thing Ive ever experienced Ill see if I can find some pics of it.

It would cool the intercooler down so you still benefit from it when your done spraying

Default no, that's not right

First, the way an intercooler works, the amount of cooling depends on the temperater of the charge in. So, putting a hot charge through might let you dump 40 degrees, then you mix the nitrous in. If you put the nitrous in before the intercooler, then you might only lose like 20 degrees in the intercooler.

Thus you do better to intercool then add nitrous.
