Believe me, I'm equally eager.
The problem is I let someone "borrow" my fuel rails, and I'm still waiting on them to be shipped back.
I'm ready to rock otherwise.
Edit: I just ordered another set of rails and hoses, so no matter what, I'll be ready next week.

There was a video a few years back of someone spraying dry into their clear lid (I've looked for it a few times in the past just to see it again and can't find it), you most definitely will see the nitrous in your intake. I would definitely support using a video camera to find out and not leaning over the engine to watch at all.

I suspect Vinny will see "wisps" of nitrous with a 100 shot. not much. The background color of his intake may be better or worse for viewing as well.
By the way...the car in the vid made 869+ rwhp after some tuning and 460 or so on motor. So it was around a 400 shot.

Here is a vid of one of my buddies i did a dual stage dry/direct port on with a clear lid. The close ups of the dry stage by itself was approx 250-275 worth of juice. You can definately see the nitrous flow out the nozzle...but note how quickly it dissapates by the time it travels thru the neck of the lid.

more power to you. I dont think i could get an intake custom made, know that fuel might puddle in it, and then spray it just to see what happens. It is pretty cool looking but with that plastic on top keep a seal once the pressure builds in the intake. Your also taking the chance that it might not puddle this time but it might later and blow that plastic through your hood. But im subscribing just to see what happens.

The fuel rails arrived yesterday, so it got installed late last night.
here is a pic of the car running (you totally can't tell, but it was idleing)
When its running you see absolutly nothing, I mean nothing at all through the window. No reversion of fuel, no vibration....just nothing. Hopefully the nitrous shows up.
I seriously doubt the N20 would be seen through the nozzle as it is in the pic based on the vids already posted. But I will install one of Daves plate tonight, which I think should have a much better chance of seeing it since it discharges right at the TB.
