Direct Port Nitrous - Help me clear up a few details. Hi there,
Im planning on installing nitrous in my 05GT and im toying with the idea of direct port nitrous - maybe using the NOSzle units - or maybe some nozzles in the CMCV plates, Anyway, i was hoping that someone could offer a little bit more of an explanation as to how the system actually works.
In my understanding the fuel and NOX are injected into each cylinder directly, however from what i can gather when the nitrous is active (WOT) the nozzles are injecting all the time, even during the exhaust stroke of the cylinder - which seems a bit crazy, am i correct in assuming this?
Does this cause any trouble? Also i would have thought that if you are injecting NOX/fuel above the inlet valve, when the valve is closed the mixture would pool up, causing trouble. OR is the amount of pooling very small so as not to cause a problem?
So following my line of reasoning, the nitrous should be active only when the injector is active, or when the valve is open. Therefore you would need a pair of solenoid valves for each cylinder and a control system to activate them at the right time - But i dont believe solenoid valves are fast enough to do this - and i dont know how you would control the system..
therefore i guess the NOSzle system would be safer as it is injecting constantly into the cylinder (rather than above the intake valve), then there can be no pooling in the intake manifold?
Any expansion you can provide on my reasoning would be very welcome. Thanks
