Good luck. Just don't emulate me Since you arent running extra fuel, I dont think you have much of anything to worry about. I would say the 2/3 gallon mix will net you 50 hp. Do you have access to a dyno to confirm your gains? Some real statistics on the performance of this stuff would be a nice thing to have.

No, I'm gonna do it. I'm waiting to see how yours works, then I'll try to duplicate. My NOS nozzle has a problem so I'll probably get one of your nozzles. Does it give a fine spray?

Have you redynoed your truck with the new (non-leaking) boost tube on it?

No, not yet. I wanted to wait for some cooler air and I would like to have my exhaust and water injection installed.

its pretty good at misting, but when the water hits the other side of the tube, it turns into a stream. it may never get there with all the hot air flyin through the pipe, and it will come out slower when the boost is pushing back.

order the dultmeier catalog. its free and u can see all the different kinda nozzles. theres alot of 'em.

psd, i dont think it will even get me that much cuz it is much less in quantity than ur firetruck system... but maybe. im not too much for the hp gains, i just want extreme reliability for 250,000mi, and its never gonna make it pullin the loads i do. plus i want to run the predator on 40-65 modes w/ heavy/light loads respectively, and not blow 'er up.

P.S. impressive sticky thread.... u make us soooooo proud, young man...

I did a search for nozzle on Dultmeiers web site and it returned 2397 items. O don't know what I'm looking for.

The Carolina Kid was really good, wasn't he? He is really smart and mature not just for a senior in High School but for anybody!

ill try to help.

compare them by flow rates. look at the rates of the orifice plates, and compare to nozzles. ull be lookin at the smallest ones cuz they get pretty big.

i feel that ur best bet is the part#'s in post #327 in this thread. i dont know how to put more than 1 quote in my reply so ull have to look manually

i ordered the catalog (free) and its an awesome compilation of gearhead crap....perfect for us lookin through it, i think of all kinds of 007-type stuff i could rig up!!!

my nozzle is brass but u can get stainless if u want it. o, make sure its an 80deg spray pattern. 110 is too wide and will spray the sides of the pipe instead of into the airstream.
