ZL1 Direct injection meth
So I'm a little confused I'm reading about meth. So mostly I see that people use Snow or Alky. My confusion is that some spary into there intake or directly into the cylinders.
So I found the NX lid supposedly it to use to install meth directly,comes with ports for the nozzles. But who is that direct injection if that is on top of the blower? Is there a way to spray direct on the 20 zl1? What is the best kit? And what exactly would I need for direct injection? |

Nothing direct injects into the cylinder. The NX kit is nice because it sprays after the rotors. If you spray before the rotors of a roots style blower you can't use water (doesn't compress).
Sounds like you might be getting confused with some of the direct port nitrous kits. These spray nitrous into each cylinder but its more or less port injection. Pm or call and we can get you a deal on a NX lid kit. |

So is there any benefit from using 8 nozzles with the NX lid compared to just 2 nozzles into the intake?
Also I noticed that the NX site has a NX lid kit with the everything pretty much set up . Has anyone use this kit before? https://www.snowperformance.net/wate...15127h-lt4.asp |

How do you decide how many nozzles to go with and what size? |

Originally, the guy from prometh spec’d the nozzle sizes. But there was so much meth going to the blower, a total of 44gph. It was drowning it lol After talking to a couple of people I knocked the meth way down to 27 gph. The front one is 3gph. The 4 in the lid are 6gph each. Prometh had the front one at 20gph and the ones in the lid at 6gph. |

Is all that necessary? It looks great but most people just use either one or two injection points before the TB. Shooting it before the SC wouldn't it be sucked in and evenly pushed through the SC.
Not saying that the 5 nozzle system doesn't work but IMO not sure if the cost / benefit ratio is worth it. I am sure all that stainless plumbing was not cheap. I am the farthest thing from an expert just giving my opinion from a car enthusiasts |

What's the reason you decided to go with Alky?
That's great power for what you have. What are the bolt on you have? |

I am getting a alky injection kit and lower pulley installed next month. Probably just going with a single or dual nozzle depends what my builder suggest.

Thanks! Kong port/2.175 upper, the meth setup, big gulp, NW 103 Tb, kooks 2inch headers and cat deletes, jms fuel max, Mighty Mouse catch can. Thankfully I’m really good friends with my tuner which helps tremendously. I just added a dsx flex fuel sensor and on the street we were able to get about E60 out of the fuel system. I think on a cold night the car will be creeping on up towards that 800whp number. |
