Well.. from what i've heard(I've never used nitrous), if you use a
fogger nozzle before or after the throttle body, the manifold vacuum
is too great and will suck the nitrous into the number 3 and 4
cylinders more than 1 and 2. This after time tends to melt cyl.s 3
and 4 very quickly. The only nitrous setup you should use(I think)
is a direct injection setup with four seperate nozzles to each
combustion chamber to distribute the gas evenly and don't
overwork individual cylinders.
