Default Jet Size with open Solenoid

Maybe i am wrong but i heard on the NOS 5177 kit, the solenoids will spray a maximum of a 175 shot with no jets installed. So if i now have the 125 shot, is it possible to take out 1 of the jets and leave 1 in , will that make a 150 shot. Since 1 of them is spraying 125 and the other 175.??? Or could i even step 1 jet down to a 100 and the other 175, making a 137.5 hp shot???

These are just thoughts on how to get a little more power without spending any money......

That 175 is more like fwhp, with no jets on my bone stock A4 I made ~140 rwhp at about 1200 psi. I did have a cutout, but that's it at the time.

but would it be safe to have 1 of the solenoids open, while one still has the jet in?

Sure. It's no different than having that size jet in it. I believe those Powershot solenoids have a .076 orfice, so that's all it will flow regardless. Just a good tune and go for it!

If you split your redundant (back to back) n2o noids up you have a max of .076 on each nozzle. If you want the math for figuring out what jets for rwhp on NOS 5177 let me know, as you can taylor it to the hp at wheels you want by using different jets in each side. One more thing dual .046 jets equal one .065 jet in surface area, so be carefull. One .076 orifice can support 210hp at crank or 178.5 at the rear wheels. Splitting as you can see will support much more. I have all the math if interested.

5177 kit noids inline will flow around 140-150 max rwhp. I suggest using drilled out jets on each side so the lines seal to the nozzel

The limiting factor is not the noid, take out the jet all the way to get max flow, and the limit may be the nozzle itself. I'll measure orifice in nozzle when I get a chance. But, many have got the 175/180 out of these kits (crank).
