Default 2 stage through one nozzle?

I am currently installing a dry 2 stage kit. I have a Y in the supply line going into two seperate lines each with its own solonoid. Then a inline jet for each noid before another Y converging the lines back into one. Then three feet of line attached to the 90 deg. fan nozzle which has no jet in it. The reason for this is where I have the line and nozzle I can't fit another one simular and still hide it. Each noid is seperately controlled with a 80 hp. jet in the first shot and a 50 hp. jet in the second one. Will having the jets so far from the nozzle cause pressure loss or affect the spray pattern of the fan nozzle or its density? Does the fan nozzle need that jet to function correctly? When going from a small diameter hole to a larger one the pressure will drop due to change in size. Yes, I could always install another parrallel line with a nozzle and ditch the second Y but I want it hidden.

you want it seperate, as the maf will not pick up a single 130 hp shot.

I have heard that it wont do more than 65 hp shot per nozzle, and thats why the 5177 kit has 2 nozzles.

Not the best way to do it. I would go with two nozzles and jet there and you will be fine. Bottle press. will drop fast. I am runing 2 stage dry with 2 bottles so i went over all the issues with nozzles. How do you no that nos does not flow back down the line if you only spray 1 stage? And the nozzle you are using is made for fuel and nos so you you will see (if it works) power spikes. b/c distribution isn't as good.

Went out with it last night 12.34 @ 116 with 1.98 60'. still tinkering with the second stage activation. Tires are spinning hard.
