Default b4 or after the IC

ok, this is to those of you who, like myself, are crazy enough to double up on 'power adders'.

which is more beneficial: spraying a dry N2O shot before the IC? or after the IC?

and why?

after teh intercooler. the nitrous has more time to get heated up by the time it reaches the combustion chamber. unless you are doing it only to add cooling properties instead of major power adders.

If I remember right, a lot of the beneficial cooling that should be used to cool your charge air will be wasted cooling the piping, etc., if you jet the NOS before the intercooler.. Plus the NOS will most likely be really poorly distributed if it has to go through the intercooler.. Just follow the normal rules of thumb for jet location...
