Oh no! We really might have wrongly accused Eddie!!!Originally posted by Redd@Apr 21 2006, 06:52 AM
ok, ive been reading these eddie threads with much amusement. but wtf is a "gucci roof"?!
i know a fair bit about nitrous (dont ask me why) and here's some info to refute/support eddie's claims:
1. nylon lines are preferred for smaller (less than 100hp) nitrous shots. nylon lines are small enough that the nitrous liquid wont expand to gas in them thus eliminating the need for a purge valve. most american kits will use steel-braided hoses for the wow factor.
2. nitrous/fuel injectors are placed right in front of the throttlebody - post AFM - for wet systems. but yes, they are noticeably missing from eddie's engine bay, as are the nitrous system solenoids. but that's not to say they can't be hidden.
3. u dont need to add any ECU for a nitrous kit. the nitrous/fuel injector takes care of any additional fueling that's needed when the nitrous is shot.
4. nitrous works equally well for manual or auto, the strength of the 'box being the limiting factor of how much nitrous u can ultimately shoot.
so there ya go eddie! the benefit of the doubt. show us ur car and prove the non-believers wrong!
