Default (pics)Nozzle problem, Please Help!

After taping my maf I realized (once I bolted the maf back together) that the maf itself was in the way of the nitrous line.. Will using a different brand of nozzle mean my Cold Fusion jets might not work? What's the differance between a soft plume fogger nozzle and a Pro Fogger nozzle? I welcome any reccomendations whatever nozzle I use I'd like to try to stay with 1/16th size. TIA

What about this nozzle, is it 1/8 or 1/16?

You will need NX jets to work with that nozzle as jets are not interchangable.

What about having it welded shut and starting over? It's $50/hr for Al welding around here. Or, if the bolts line up, what about rotating everything else (in the front) by 90 degrees? I'm not sure though. I don't even know where my stock MAF is anymore.

You can buy a .90c NPT plug at home depot to plug that side and tap the other side. Just be sure to use some thread sealer on the plug so its perfectly sealed.

Yeah I have an extra set of stock ends, think I'm gonna use one and drill and tap the other side. I'll have to move all my noids though, I live I learn.

That's what I would do, just move to the other side as Al suggested. I sure like the nozzles mounted in the maf rather than the bellows, much tricker looking, nice job.

Thanks, I can only afford to swap to the other side. It really costs to install nitrous the right/safe way.

You could also look in to thiss nozzle from HSW (Back Mamba)

Turn the MAF so the box is downwards, and drill and tap the same side. Also NOS makes a nozle that fits in that side, it has the flat end by the MAF box.

I ended up putting the nozzle on the passengers side, now my lines from the noids to the nozzle are too short.
