Anyone try Nitrous inside or N-tercoller nitrous outside?

I'm thinking of taking my C32 to the "next level" by adding Nitrous. Has anyone had any experience or seen anyone use nitrous in a C32? I'm also wondering if anyone has seen one use the N-tercoller system that shoots nitrous on the outside of the intercooler. They claim it was good for 52hp in a super high performance turbo car. I'd be happy if I could get 10-15hp, as the cost is really low. Anyone hear anything?

the N-tercooler system would do very little for our car, because the actual intercooler is below the supercharger, the thing out front is a heat exchanger that works like a radiator...

intercooler external mist sprayers can work, some race cars have that.. but many stock ic are paired with the radiator and sometimes ac condensor, sometimes even sandwiched in between the two. heat soak becomes a b*tch. what is the setup on the w203? keeping induction air cool is great for turbo/sc cars.. but ic spray is a bit of a patch work. some of the other items that work are aquamist type internal.. but too much of it can actually dampen power too..

I'm running a 50 shot directly into the RENNTech S/C on my C55.
If you want more detail call RENNTech - ask for Hartmut...
on the dyno I had a gain of 28rwhp and 36 torque

I have not tried it on the streets yet, I need to get some new rubber as my pilot sport cups are worn out...

Are you shotting it into the intake above the S/C? I would think this would be the way. Anyone think this is a bad idea? I talked to my mechanic, and he thinks that a small shot (like a 50) would be safe and effective.
Someone has to have tried this on the C32. I'd hate to be the lab rat on this one.

Yes, it is running directly into the intake.

Hartmut (RENNtech) was not a big fan of the idea but he wouldn't have done it if he thought it would damage the engine.
And I think that after he hit the NOS a couple of times he actually even had a

Well, i finnaly put the 100 shot wet system on my N/A C55. so far no problems and the dyno pulled an extra 65 HP to the wheels. I just found out that NOS in the state of CA is not alowed. The bottle can not be hooked up in the car.30 days impound, i'll only put it in when i'm going to kick some butt. I have a bottle warmer, line activator,bottle opener, and so far so good. I know there is a system from nitrous express that is for a supercharged car, but i don't have any knowlage with a S/C and NOS together. Good Luck
