Ive seen a couple of pictures of blower motors with nitrous. I did not realize you could run nitrous with a blower. What would be the purpose of doing that? Seems like if you wanted more power your could turn up the boost or add more nitrous, not run both.

YES! Works great! Blowers make tremendous heat while pumping, so usually you must turn the boost down to cope with heat buildup in your motor. Nitrous gives you that cold shot to cool the air/fuel charge, so in turn makes denser air, this in turn makes MORE boost Instantly. So your motor runs at a lower boost level normally, Not getting hot. When you hit the Nitrous all hell breaks loose. You have alot of power normally, with the nitrous you have a whole hell of alot.

if u turn the pump to fast it will start to airate the air inside the case and loose boost presure turn the blower as slow as possible to make the most power my .02:p ;)

A nitrous injected blown motor designed and built from scratch can be both awesome and durable ... It is not advisable to just simply add n2o to a normal blower motor for the likelyhood of Nuking such a setup is very, very high.

I have run a couple of motors with blowers and NOS. You need to start from scratch a build the motor. I would not just add these two together and stick them on a stock motor (instant grenade)
The motors I built started from the ground up , set everthing up very close check and recheck your balance, completley stud everthing. When you hit the NOS that thing is going to go to the moon instantly. Have run these is several sandrails but never in a jet boat The motors I had ran for 4 years ea in two different rails and still running strong when I sold them.

I ran this set up on my flat for a short time.
At 30 pounds of boost it ran hard off the bottle. On the bottle it was unreal. Did not take long to break the Lenco clutch. :rolleyes: Was prolly a good thing that happend as I'm sure I would have hurt myself with it sooner or later.

That's a killer setup Superdave, I couln't agree more with y'all that you need a rock solid motor to do this with, not a stocker.
Grenade is an understatement. But when it's right it's soooooo right!

Thanks, I sold the unit on E Bay for some pretty good change.
Here are the pics I took for the auction. That way people can get an idea of what just the nitrous system looked like. I bent the lines like I did to clear the injector hat's lines.

And I thought I was crazy! Especially in a flat!
