Bad info from NOS?
Bad info from NOS?
In short, they gave me incorrect info about the fuel system in my car. Their directions don't add up, and because of this, the jetting may be off as well. Here's a link to the whole story.

There is only 1 reason I can come up with, as to why the injectors will see more pressure.
the actualy FP the injectors see, is a combination of line pressure, and the air pressure at the injector tip. At WOT, if the the sucking of the TB is somehow creating a pressure zone less that atmosphiric. That would make the effective fuel pressure on the injector higher than the line pressure.
Only possibility I can come up with.

In the instructions it says the fuel pressure should be between 15-20 flowing psi, which made no sense to me since tbi pressure is between 9-13 psi.

From the other thead. NOS is saying 15-20psi, you saying 9-13psi, that means NOS is saying they are jetting for 6-7psi MORE than you are setting your line pressure, correct?

well, to large of a fuel pump, and you out run the return line, which will cause it to build pressure.
I really don't know what they are getting at, I told you, that was the only way I could see a pressure of greating the line pressure, is if the injector is actulay sitting in less pressure than 14.7.

Well, I can give you the jetting I'm using, if that will help. LOL

36 nitrous/26 fuel for 50 shot
47 nitrous/36 fuel for 100 shot
52 nitrous/39 fuel for 120 shot
65 nitrous/42 fuel for 135 shot
EDIT: IIRC I was also told a 72 nitrous/55-56 fuel jet for 150 shot

Hmm, that is the same jetting I have. After arguing with the NOS techs about fuel pressure, and why my i was running more than 6.5psi on a carb intake....
Guess I'll have to get wideband readouts on the dyno.
