Default Nitrous plus Blower

Anyone ever had Spray plus Boost combinations? How was the power increase? I'm told that the power almost doubles in some cases. Anyone else had first hand experience?

I wouldn't say double, but yes nitrous on a blower car will give some extra power gains. My dad has a '72 Mustang w/a 302 with a B&M blower and a 200 shot. He's always told me this, but then again he is old school.

I was wondering if a small 35 h.p shot would help or hurt (without a tune) on my blower setup?......Just to cool the intake charge....I'm not running an intercooler or Boost coolersetup yet...The heat really kills my power....it was 95 at the track this weekend and dropped my e.t 6 tenths...in the 1/4...[:'(]

I was thinking of spraying the nitrous into the intercooler but someone said that power gains from the nitrous will be minimal. Either way cooler air equals more power.... and the nitrous will be getting to the motor even from the intercooler.

Victor.. I dont know how it'll respond with your 2v... but most of the cobra guys this route, get a bit more for instance... 100 shot = really 100rwhp, maybe 105... but the torque is ridiculous on the blower.... I am going to probably go nitrous myself.... haven't decided fully yet... good luck w/your decision... why not turn up the boost? You have the built motor for it, don't you?

Well the 8 Rib Pulley conversion required for me to go to 14psi is around 650.00..... Plus install is another 200 something.... Plus tune is about another 100..... I plan on doing that when I get my Heads done....

This nitrous kit kinda just feel in my laps when a buddy of mine offered to sell me his entire Zex Wet Shot kit, including all the goodies for like $350.00..... I couldn't turn down that deal.

+1 for the torque gains. You'll see way more torque gains. Your engine has plenty of room left, so I would definitely up the boost, add nitrous, or something! You are making great numbers on low psi.... now put that short block to good use!
