    USRT wont give you information like that unless you buy a WMI kit from them. But if you're interested to know, you can check here
    http://www.alcohol-injection.com/en/nozzle-selector.php
    It a pretty basic calculator that uses displacement, max boost, and max RPM. It will give you an answer in GPH. You can find a calculator on the interweb to convert Gal/hr to CC/min then round up to the nearest nozzle available to you. If you plan to run 2 or more nozzles they all have to add up to the number the calculator gives you. Then round up, of course.
    Hope this helps.

    If a little's good, then a lot's better, and too much is just right.

    I always recommend a small nozzle after the FMIC, and an even smaller one post TB. saves your TB while still keeping your IATs nice and cold.

    60 or 100 cc after TB, 175cc after FMIC.

    If you're placing a nozzle post IC, you want to put it as close to the exit of the intercooler as possible. As for post TB, you can get a spacer plate that is tapped for the nozzle, or you can pull that vacuum port out of the top of the throttle body(it comes out easily with pliers as it is just pressed in) and tap it yourself. Most folk don't recommend putting one close to the front of the throttle as the meth will eat your TB with the quickness.

    Why would you say/think that? I would gladly give that info out. Sorry your emails were not answered, i know Scott had some issues with our accounts so they very well could have not been received. Anyway, i should be patrolling this forum a little more so if you have any more questions ask them here or PM me or Justin.

    I would say/think that cause of this message i got from Scott. Im not trying to bash you guys. Its a perfectly reasonable policy to have. As a tech in an auto repair shop, I've worked up quotes for people that took me a good bit of time only to have them turn down the work or take the quote to someone else, so i understand why you would have that policy. Again, im not trying to bad mouth or speak ill of USRT, im just passing on the info i was given in the hopes that it will help the next guy.

    Re: Advice on nozzle size?

    Well, as I mentioned before, we'll happily calculate your nozzle sizes at the point that you are ready to invest. This is USRT policy so as to avoid major investment in a consumer's project only for them to take the information and run to eBay with it. It happened frequently enough for us to adopt this stance. The abuse burns us up big time, creates resentment when there needn't be any, etc. We're not about to be exploited. Of course, this has nothing to do with you individually.
