Cool idea, just wonder how much it impedes the air flow and fuel coming from the carb..

Quote from dave owner of nitrous outlet


The puck is 1inch tall and 1 3/4 in Diameter. Once the intake floor is machined to accept the puck the push sticks up around 3/4 of an inch off the floor. I have talk to porters and from my understanding a properly ported or designed intake's floor does not do much as far as air flow. If all the info I have been given is correct I do not see how this little puck will affect the air flow. I am talking with someone to have them flow it on there bench to see though.

Seems ass backwards to me. Probably should have tested that before production?? There's no way that doesn't have some affect on air flow and even distribution.

Kind of surprised as well that they didn't test that before releasing it.

Not to start a pissing match, but the floor of an intake having a big boulder on it HAS to effect air flow. If it didn't, then why would intakes be smoothed/ported on the floor?

instead of machining the intake floor for the puck, i would tap the intake for a fogger that would work much better.

Its a cheap alternative. Not everyone can afford a fogger and not all classes allow foggers.

If it interfered with the airflow by any significant amount wouldnt it show up on your plug readings? People run dual spray bars inside intakes, do they effect airflow?

i dont think the puck will cause much problems hp wise by being in that area of the intake.... im trying to find it now, but i remember reading a pyramid type thing being installed in the intake floor where this puck gets mounted. can't find it now?

this is an oldsmobile intake. may or may not be affective on other engines/intakes.

I'll stick to my plate until I need and can afford to do a fogger set-up...

Thats the idea, its a cheap alternative to a fogger. Of course its not as tunable as a fogger jet wise but you can get almost equal results since its flowed and adjusted for your intake. It starts at $350 installed vs $1000+ for custom fogger.
