At what point is it beneficial to move from a single nozzle system to a plate system?

when you want to go faster! haha

my understanding is this, a plate wont necessarily make any more power than a nozzle. but it does distribute the nitrous and fuel better and generally they can support more power than a single nozzle. they also hit harder than a nozzle.

what he said.switched from a single to plate on both cars here.

I agree with the "as soon as you start spraying" train of thought.

I am not a huge fan of the single nozzle. Regular behind the TB plate works good to about 175 hp, after that you really need to go to a DP to safely distribute any more.

Plus, you can now tune each hole individually giving you the ability to run a higher level of power safely.

I actually bought a 2 stage nitrous kit with 2 nozzles and it was a waste of money on my part. The nozzles kept turning in the boot and the spray pattern was never right. I ended up buying a 2 stage plate a week later and never looked back.

I wasn't a 2 stager like 87silverbullet, but my single nozzle did have a tendency to turn up or down in the bellow. Plus the plate system helps with aesthetics as well. They just clean up the engine bay better. I bought the 78mm plate and have to say I like it a whole lot more than a nozzle.

i am currently running a single nozzle on a 150 shot and am looking to upgrade to a Nitrous Outlet 92 mm plate. I have a MSD window switch and a WOT switch. I was told this is by far THE best plate out there and could easily spray a 200 and even a 250 shot safely. True or not true?

Will it flow that much, yeah probably. would I trust it to deistibute evenly to all cylinders being a behind the TB plate deisgn that is dependant on the intake to do the distribution? Hell no.

Ok thanks for the input. What's everyone else think about the plate?

Plates, I think, are the only way to go.

The plate isn't really a limiting factor. It's the intake. IIRC the Nitro Dave's LT1 plate will flow up to a 400HP shot, but the design of the intake is what will limit you to a 200 shot or MAYBE 250.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Plates are nice, I have one in the back seat of my GTO awaiting install....but single nozzles have worked for MANY people for a LONG time. I understand why some plates distribute better.....but a nozzle, installed correctly, can distribute well enough to leave you with no worries up to a 150 shot (and often more). I have had single nozzles on more than one car spraying up to a 175 shot and I've never had an issue.

For the turning problem, why not just stick a small dab of RTV Silicone on the fitting to keep it from backing out and/or turning?

Switching from a nozzle to a plate really cleans up the installation of the kit, especially if you do it right (hardlines, etc). Also, they're right about flowing more. I wouldn't really want to put 200 through a nozzle, but I'd feel comfortable doing 200-300 through a plate with a proper tune.

Or get the nut setup that the nozzle screws into.

Yeah, I have that ready to install, I thought's that what people were having problems with? There are some that just stick the nozzle through the rubber tubing? wtf...no wonder the nozzle is turning...

Thanks for all the input guys. I have a Nitrous Pro Flow kit and have been spraying a 150 shot through a nozzle for the past few months but I want to go with a 200. I have really been looking to upgrade to a Nitro Dave 92 mm plate. I have the 42# injectors with a Walbro 255 fuel pump and have not seen any fuel problems just yet but with the amount of power I am making I have been told I am kind of pushing it on my setup. What do you guys think I should do? Run dual Walbro's or possibly go with the dedicated fuel system? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

My NX wet nozzle doesn't move at all. It helps to have an aftermarket silicone hose adapter that's smooth.

id say get a dedicated fuel system if you can! that way you can run some better "race gas" just for the extra octane and stability and what not.

I have been thinking about selling my 92mm single stage plate. If your interested maybe we can work something out!
