Yea but also remember ours switches to shorter runners after 5k. So that means if the nos is spraying in one then it switches, BOOM! Because it closes the others off.... not a good idea.

Instead of answers you got:

"Try Searching"
"Do you speak english"
"I have no idea what direct porting is"

Geez - why bother posting.

they're all picking on me because i'm a fob, and my gramatical structure is often incorrect. Spelling is also a gargantuous challenge for me, therefore they butcher at my ego..

so there's now way i can do a direct port nitrous set up on the 5th gen? i really don't like the single fogger because of it's inconsistancy in distribution, and the direct port lines just make the car look real purdy, i'm not trying to go for major performance. it's mainly of show, but i still want it to work, don't want any part of that n/a blow off valve club type of stuff.
thanx for the informative post russ...

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to. Just figure out some way to use nozels that have a coarse thread and not a fine machine thread. If Russ is correct about the switching of the runner thing then run a single shot wet from the intake. Would give you almost as good as direct port.
