You guys have to check out the pics on this one. A guy over at the 'vette forum ran a hundred shot thorugh his mag with a smaller pulley and popped it.

Thats gotta suck... nitrous backfire.

Looks like the chemical intercooler bit him in the pocket book.I've thought about spraying my intercooled Magnacharger using a wet shot.Pictures like the one you posted provide a good reality check.

Ya, looks like a 100 shot is a bit much for that small magnuson manifold & roots.

i should to that to my saturn. 100 fwhp to boot, then another 100... that would work, right? jk. his engine is worth more than my car was brand new. lol.

Someone help me here... Isn't a backfire normally due to puddling in the Intake instead of just a lean issue?

whitt1

I think you're right Mellow Yellow,I thought a lean condition on nitrous would cause a internal meltdown and a rich condition would cause a backfire.

MelloYellow

Is a Nitrous Backfire due to fuel solenoid puddling or Nitrous Puddling?

whitt1

The only puddling you can get is fuel,because nitrous becomes a gas when its released into the motor.

MelloYellow

Thanks.

What are the best ways to have a wet kit vaporize the fuel better? How does a direct fogger handle fuel and would that work on a custom magnuson manifold?

zturbo

Sounds like fuel puddled then boom.
You can run a dp setup on that intake not sure abour plumbing a traditional setup but you can run that NOS nozzle system on that and solve the pooling problems. The intake just does not look to me like it would be good for distribution the way it is setup.
