We used my Formula for testing it back when it was in the development stages. The kit works out great. I will see if I can dig up one of the videos of it on the dyno

Chris is it better than a nozzle. So should I get the halo? A one nozzle or a two nozzle set-up?

do you guys have any shots of what the spray pattern is like on that halo bar, and is the tab on it a required piece or would running a hardline to the inlet be enough to keep it held in place?

You might be able to get away without having the tab welded in place, it would depend how how tightly your lid fits though.

well i am waiting on a clear lid and figured it would be pretty sweet with that setup, but the tab would look not so good with that. And from what i understand the lid will be pretty snug

It will be better than a single nozzle cause it breakes the discharge down into multipule discharges. The dual nozzle is closer to the Halo in the fact that you have two dicharges for the nitrous, but me ( Personally ) I would go with the Halo.

The Halo has mutiple discharges that release from each side of the bar. It will completly fog the air intake making sure the maff reads the nitrous. This eleminates having to worry about nozzle placement. There is a video here on the board somewhere from a customer. It is of the Halo before we changed the desighn fron the front discharge to the side discharge.

Here's mucho info/insight/tuning/results thread on the halo vs Nozzles. On this one, i would def go dual nozzles. You will get a lean spike with the Halo, yes they will say that it'll be lean sometimes and rich others, either way it'll still have the lean spike because of being to far away from MAF. Nozzles 3 to 4 inches from MAF will eliminate the lean spike all together, goes rich in micro sec. if ya want any additional info, check this thread out. These are my opinions/facts and not influenced by anyone or any company.

Halo vs Nozzles

Robert do you have any personal experience with our Halo because all the information you are posting in different threads about our Halo is as far from the truth?

Yeppers, and maybe the conflict is the fact that the ones I have messed with were the older type/style (as you staated in the other thread). This kinda made an issue for some right from the start? You know dave I really have never stated what my findings were with the Halo, why, cause I didn't want to offend you.

Now if you want to send me a new style ring, I would be more than happy to dyno/tune/test it on my Z06. This i would do out my own pocket, and would send ring back after testing. You should know by now that what I do is really un biased. If it works as you say (the new style) it will show in testing. I have allways shared my findings freely with all.

Robert are they opinion or facts? The Halo works fine. My company installed a one of Nitro Dave's halo last week. No kidding. Dave (Dave Moore my business partner, not Nitro Dave) sold it based on inexpensive stealthy installation. It also performed exactly as he wanted it to. See he wasn't looking to set any land speec records...just win a few races and have some fun.

Facts or opinions, both. the ones I have seen in person ran lean. Now because you were able to get it set-up to work, does not make the optimum dry kit/hit. If you read the last post in the other thread you can see how this fact can been seen in real world tuning. I never have said it couldn't be made to work, but rather it can be difficult for some, and also less than optimum to other dry methods. like dave said, there is more than one way to tune a dry hit, and to further that statement, there is more than one way to introduce a dry hit. let the end user decide which is best for them, as I just put out what I have seen and experianced, if someone wants to believe it or not, that's not my concern, as I think most guys are pretty smart on this site and will figure out what best suits their needs.

Hey, Macon, how's your project coming? I am still working out a few bugs and still have not got a complete 1/4 run with the spray, damn. But, early indications are that if i get the perfect run, I just might be able to knock off a 9.xx, even with the independent rear (nice 1/8 mile mph).

Gotta love Vista - I couldn't fart w/o knowing Robert56 has posted!! lolololol.

Dave holds the key as we speak. As I understand the fuel and nitrous rails are driving around Texas. The intake manifold is parked in a paint booth...the flex lines are now hard as a youthful pecker and my motor sits in the car like a lady in waiting. It looks slow right now w/o a manifold. The Strange front brakes looks awesome. I read the GMHP magazine on Eric (NEXT) Piner's car and quickly ordered the SYA bars!! Long story short - i think we need to put together a pay Roberts way to Memphis fund! That way I could sit you down at a bar and blame the excellent blues on Beale Street for the tears that old Vette will cause you to shed after my LME kicks your LME's ***!!!

Bring frineds (but they have to pay their way). Meanwhile I am being measured up for a new fire suit. I'm 6'2 and 300 - I hope Simpson has some big templates!! I know - you can have your thread back now!!
