Default Big Juice Installed Pic..

I think it looks great! Have to Finish wiring the NOS progressive and the fuel system and its on to the dyno. Mike Notaro of DRM is one of the best.. This guy does everything perfect when it comes to C5's very clean install (I highly recommend them) I've seen some of the other installs but mine looks good, even in the places you don't look.. :D

I am a nitrous newbie (:D). What are those rails for? Does each cylinder get its own shot??? Looks really cool, I must say!

From what I can tell, it is a direct port injection. The Blue rail supplies the Nitrous and the red line, the fuel. Normally, most people have a dry kit up by the intake area so it wil get mixed in with the air as it is comming into the cyclinders. The direct injection really kicks up the amount you have in each cyclinder.

I could be wrong, but I think i'm right. :blueangel:

Very nice setup, clean and precise.

Patman, that's a Direct Port setup, each cylinder recieves its own shot of nitrous and fuel. Useful for monster applications like this one, and maximum tunability.

Looks great! :cool: But I think I prefer the engine with the fuel rails in place. And it seems that a dry system adds less clutter. But like I said before, your setup does look :cool: :seeya
