Message: [QUOTE="HS-MotorsportsDallas, post: 1470398, member: 19010"] Mr. Wayne, I think we see things very differently. Question #1- Can nitrous cool EGT's? Theoretically, yes. Practically, no. The only way to actually cool EGT's with nitrous is to take it to such a lean condition that you would actually be putting out the flame and, consequently, decreasing horsepower. Which, at that point, why would you be spraying nitrous as a power adder? If you are running .8 lambda and add nitrous and go to 1.3 lambda, you will increase EGT's. When your lambda gets too lean, you have no more fuel to burn and the EGT's will decrease, as will your power. You can over fuel your engine as well to bring down EGT's but, that doesn't make a lot of sense either. It's a balance. Question #2- Is nitrous more violent than fuel only? Absolutely. Nitrous is an oxidizer and will increase cylinder pressure when combined with the proper amount of fuel. Since nitrous is introduced into the system at a very quick rate shortly before the cylinder, there's also room for hot spots or inconsistent burning which may be negligible and just fine for short periods of time but still contribute to potential failures, shortened component lifespan and premature wear. So to answer the question, yes nitrous is more violent (brutal, harsh, severe, etc) compared to running straight air as an oxygen source. Those are my findings based on experience and science. I'm just a hillbilly running multiple piles of junk though. :tree: P.S. I love nitrous :rockon: [/QUOTE]
