maybe in theory that would make sense.. but at 1000 psi and with the size of the orifice of the jets... trust me it's mixing well b4 the combustion chamber

my issue w/ that opinion is the fact that you really don't wanna spray fuel through your intake if possible... especially after it's mixed w/ an oxidizer that SERIOUSLY increases the burn rate of the fuel

so in reality a real plate kit (one that goes under the upper) is the way to go if you don't wanna squirt dry

you are correct in that a DP system is by far the best way to squirt.... no questions asked. but they are usually $1000 or more for the kit

even a true plate kit can hit you for $750 and you need to swap the plate if you swap intakes

i'm not capping on you... you did say he said it

i just don't see it , no way , no how... but again... maybe he is talking tb plate ???

 

I did not say I spray 250 hp. I never spray that little anymore. But I do have experience where I have sprayed as little as 350 hp using various plate kits with great success (my daily driver is one example). So no, if you spray 250 hp you do not need a direct port system. There are many combinations that require a direct port system and some that are much better off using a plate kit, and yet others are better off using a single nozzle. Some are better off wet and some are better off dry. It all depends on the individual application, so blanket statements simply will not do.

Mixture, ah yes, I know it well. It is nearly meaningless in real life. This is always one of those intangibles that so called "Gurus" throw out there in an attempt to try and impress the inexperienced. They are usually only charlatans with a simple objective of separating you from your money. Carburetor salesman have been using the mixture/atomization argument for years to try and get you to by their product instead of going with fuel injection. It does not work for them and it does not work with nitrous either. Many, many reasons why but the primary ones are that fuel does not burn. Only the fuel vapor burns. Nitrous oxide does not burn. The O2 molecule that is separated from the NO2 at around 600 deg. F. is what is used in the combustion process. None of these requirements for combustion are going to occur prior to the heads. The next generation of internal combustion engines have the fuel injectors mounted directly into the combustion chamber of the heads and they are much more efficient than todays engines. How much mixing/atomization is occurring prior to the heads there. Some of the top nitrous 10.5 Outlaw racers in the country use custom designed direct port 700 plus hp dry nitrous systems. How much mixing/atomization is occurring prior to the heads there. Take a close look at the engine in my street car (1988 GT in my garage). That is a custom built, multi-stage, 600 hp direct port dry nitrous system. How much mixing/atomization do you think is occurring before my heads. Lets look at fuel injected turbocharged or supercharged engines. How much mixing/atomization is occurring before the heads there. Sort of really makes you think, doesn't it.
