Oh I'm sure they will fit, I just don't know if it will still clear your hood.

That would be for the entire kit, very comprable to a direct port setup and way easier to set up.

Sounds a little expensive since I paid $1,200 2 years ago for my NOS 5174 setup :rolleyes:

Do you know if they'll just sell the injector adaptor and what they will cost each? :D

They look good and sneaky, but they also raise your fuel rails up a bit. I wonder if they will clear with the super ram or not?? They look to be much safer than the TB setup (at least on an L98 with SR)
I'm wondering the same thing...

That is TOO COOL.

Looks like you would have to raise the fuel rail about 1/2" for them to fit under the injectors...I wonder if it comes with mounting bracket extensions or longer hold down bolts?

Problem I see is that it constricts the basic injector spray pattern into the narrow center passage of the adaptor, therefore, when you're not using the nitrous boost I'm wondering if you will have a less efficient fuel atomization? :confused:

From what I read in the article in Hot Rod, they dyno tested without and with the NOSzles (with the system inactive) and saw "...no change in output." It looks like the seal is tight enough that it would be like adding an extension onto your garden hose.

As for the question regarding timing of the shot, again it's just adding additional fuel and nitrous ports above each intake valve without any drilling of the intake manifold....there is no fancy timing going on here:eek:

They installed an "RPM Window" switch into the circuit to limit both ends of where the NOS would be "on". As the article said, the "limiter" on the Mustang is done by cutting fuel back on the top-end. This will cause an extreme lean condition which I don't think would be very pretty. This RPM Window switch cuts off the flow of the NOS before you reach red-line.

I'm not an NOS person, there are plenty out here on the forum who are. Looks interesting to say the least....
