Basically, it's not going to work unless you are driving the car under load.
They are relatively easy to test, though, check if you can blow air through it. You shouldn't be able to without applying vacuum to the signal nipple.
Dude, first and foremost, you need to cut out the personal insults and insinuations. They aren't helping.
Nobody has said it can't be done. Nobody has said that it hasn't been done umpteen times in the past.
What we ARE saying is that it's old technology, and inferior to the way we do it...
Wet nitrous doesn't like to stay wet, unlike gasoline.
Furthermore, we aren't saying it won't work, just that it isn't as easy, neat, and clean as you think it is.
You're starting to sound like a man! I did that with my 7M on the last rebuild. Had to crawl back into the house to lick my wounds for a day before I was willing to go back out and do battle again.
Random thoughts... tomato soup with chunks of melted parmesan in it is awesome. Needs a little...
Actually, head corrosion can happen from a bunch of things.
The most common on our cars is likely BHG exhaust gasses making the coolant corrosive, and then user neglect leaving that coolant in the engine for a long time.
I'm sure a fair number of you have already seen the tank car, but for the rest of you...

Heh - yes, but IJ, you and I live in Metric countries. It's easy to get them here - in the good old US of A, they don't like Metric so much.
Be kinda funny if you end up having to mail order them from Canada.
Red leader: Stay on topic... stay on topic!!!
Ok, the answer to this is yes and no. If you have cracks around your wastegate flapper, you are by no means unique, most of the people here do as well, with no ill effects in 99.9% of the cases.
This will affect your longevity eventually...
Trust me when I say I've read the entire thread. Furthermore, I know of several examples of this being done with extra injectors - the picture I posted wasn't something I found on the net, I *took* that photo, and the guy who drives the car is a local.
As for the costs, here is my spreadsheet...
Folks, please keep in mind that this is old technology. The cost of a AIC, the extra injectors, all the mounting, wiring, etc, is going to be well over just purchasing a set of 6 larger injectors.
The only way I would recommend that anyone go this route is if they get a spectacular deal on the...
You do NOT want to buy the tool yourself. They are damn expensive - expensive enough that the only people who can justify owning them are either independently wealthy or a business.
Dude, the line that goes from the bottom of the accordion hose isn't the PPS valve. The PPS valve is on the other side of the engine, next to the AC compressor. All that does is allow extra air into the intake when you are putting a lot of load on the steering - I.E., when you are at a...
