you confuse an intercooler sprayer with nitrous system.

An intercooler sprayer can use nitrous

not sure how the coolers are set up, but you can do it with c02.

Yes you can do that. It is called a fogger system. You spray the intercooler or you can drill right into it and spray it is up to you. Why spray a 65 is it not better to run race gas????

Can you run race gas on a stock ECU/Car ? Anyone have any proof that it works ? Dyno or Track ?

You will need a tune to run race gas

Wow. Your SL65 is insanely fast, especially for stock. Impressive!

Why would you spray with Nitrous and not just Co2? Isnt the idea of this just to reduce intake temp? or am I missing something?

haters crazy
Interesting idea, I tried spraying nitrous on my heat exchanger a while back but spraying the intercooler itself is the way to go. Lower temp IAT's = more power!

I was thinking C16 gas. 116 octane, this will give you way more power and the car can run on race gas or normal gas.

I was told if you do an ECU upgrade,you will need to run either or or ? (93,100, or c-16)

OCTANE: OEM ecu programming tables allow for up to 94 octane adjustments. After market re-flash such as Renntech allows for 99 octane. Higher octane can be used but ecu will not have adaptive value tables to take advantage of it.

Spray: Depending on the set up, you have be careful with CO2 sprayers. It is very ez for CO2 to get sucked into the intake which obviously causes loss of power (personal experience). NOS is a better choice. Keep in mind the limits of the adaptive tables in the algorithms.

C16: That’s a leaded fuel, which is a strict no no for your system. I can go on and on here but its best you further research this point and you'll get the picture.
MS109 is the highest unleaded octane fuel u can get your hands on with a true r+m/2 octane value of 105.

HP: On average if u have a forced induction engine that is pushing over 500hp, u will net an extra 10%HP, with 100 octane (r+m/2) if u have the flash for it. HP increase is lower for normally aspirated.
