i run 2 2gph nozzles post blower, should be on 2 3 gph nozzles, on 100% meth, funny story, when i had the two 3gph nozzles on me and fran went tooning and for some reason we couldnt get it to lean out no matter what afr he commanded at wot, so I decide to quit for the day and swap in smaller nozzles. Well i get the sc off and notice that the nozzle tip, filter, and restricter fell off into the intake mani!! so the reason why we couldnt get it to lean out is cause without any restricter those nozzles were probably pumping 20-30gph of 100% methanol. So i pulled the mani off and fished the nozzle tips out, thank god for laminova cores, they stopped them from going into the motor and doing and serious damage. So i red locktite the 2gph nozzle tips on. So back on the rollers cooling wasnt what we really wanted but atleast we could lean the engine out to afrs in th 11's. Looking to swap new 3gph nozzles in to see what kinda cooling can really be achieved post blower.

Ever consider running one in FRONT of the blower?? The SC is what creates the the heat, and spraying into the blower would help to keep it cooler during a hard run. Throw one of those in your intake next time you dyno and I bet you see a drop in IAT2's...
