Default Plate vs nozzle?

I'm getting close to installing the nitrous in my console. I don't have a way to actually get the juice into the engine yet though. Should I buy a cheap egay tb spacer and drill it for a nozzle, bite the bullet and buy a 78mm plate, or really go ape and hide a fogger underneath my intake? Any and all input is appreciated.

Well i guess that all depends on what you want to spend, I run a nozzle and have had good results with it. But if i were gonna do it again i would probably go with a plate and I may just do that in the end.

whatever you do don't get a throttle body spacer and tap it with a nozzle, I ran 2 bottles through my truck like that and it bucked at popped at upper rpms. Also my tuner made me aware that the nitrous isn't atomized enough before entering the manifold and is just shooting into it and missing the first two cylinders. some sponsors of the site have great plates available.

nitrous outlet plate. you wont regret it. im on my third.

first one was a single 78mm plate

2nd was a single 90mm plate

now i have a dual 90mm on the way.

look up wheatleys install pictures. he got my old 78mm plate and threw some 3 piece covers over it and HIS ENTIRE NITROUS SYSTEM IS HIDDEN. very clean install.

i would think the plate would work best for are trucks/ or any engine. i used a shark nozzle drilled to my intake when i 1st got some spray.

i use the nitrous outlet plate on my truck

with the regular engine cover (1 piece) on you cant see the plate and there are plenty of spots and ways to hide your solenoids and lines
