Nitrous leaking?

When I had my y8 and was shooting the 65 shot though, you could feel the car move a little bit, but ever since I have swapped my y8 out for the b16a (SiR II), whenver I use the 65 shot, it just doesn't feel like the car is moving, it feels stock. Could this be because the nitrous is leaking from somewhere? I did keep the same intake I had on my single AEM v2, so could the leak be coming from the rubber hose not being tight enough from the intake to the IM?

Do you have a tank heater? and/or cooler to keep the tank at roughly 90 degrees.

Wait, so the tank needs to be around 90 degrees when shooting to maintain a full 65 shot, correct?

nitrous isn't presurized in the intake track, or in the maifold. so if there was a leak you would know it

Just admit you lost to a stock Si, You have no leak so stop making f**king excuses
a STOCK si will NOT beat that car...

you need to make sure you are getting nitrous AND fuel.. please do me a favor and describe in DETAIL what is happening when you "spray"

the thing you have to keep in mind is if you are ONLY getting extra fuel the car would be even SLOWER... like if the nitrous is not kicking in..

i believe that on that kit the additional fuel is provided via "black box" thats wired into some stock stuff... in fact i dont even think there is a traditional solonoid...

im really not a fan of this kit due to the mysterious black box..
