102 plate vs nozzle?
102 plate vs nozzle? I currently run a nitrous supply piranha nozzle supposedly up to 300 flow... Im running it through my bellow pointed through my tbody and into the intake..... My question is will the nitrous outlet 102 plate be a better bet? Will it hit harder? Is it worth the extra money.. Im sparaying a 225 shot....
Thanks in advance

Id recommend a plate on any shot over 150 personally. The plate will have better distribution for sure over a nozzle at that spray level. I couldnt tell you which will hit harder but the nitrous outlet plate is definetly the better setup.

Who is this "they" you speak of. I've not heard of anyone recommending a nozzle over a plate in quite some time. Not only do you get better distribution but you avoid a few installation issues concerning nozzle placement/clocking as well.

two or three different techs at NX and 1 at NOS I'm only spraying 100 MAX 150

At the power levels you are talking our plate will no doubt atomize the mixture into the air stream much better than a single nozzle.
At a 100- 150 hp you will not see a difference in performance. The plate will no doubt atomize into the air stream better when been compared to a nozzle but those advantages are going to show on the larger hp levels.

Ahhh, There is your problem... You didn't call Nitrous Outlet Tech!

I'm sure the plates work well but I've had better luck with nozzles. I normally limit a single nozzle to a .078 jet and usually recommend splitting the shot up between two nozzles once you get to that point. I run two shark nozzles (flow quite a bit more than piranha nozzles) on mine and have had great results.
Another big thing at those size nitrous shots is making sure your solenoid will actually flow the jet size. The basic NX EFI shark nozzle kits boast about the nozzle supporting a 250 shot (which they do) but the solenoid barely supports a 150 shot. Running the entire kit on a C6 LS3 car we put a .073 jet in the nozzle and made a pass. Came back swapped solenoids and made another hit. It was lean and a bit hot so I did a tuneup adjustment to compensate and the car picked up 4mph and .3 with only a solenoid swap. I went from the "Iceman" solenoid to a big NX direct port solenoid.
