As the NOS is injected it cools the air and makes it more Dense. So by
injecting earlier you ARE pumping denser air into the TB...

This is the way I have seen it done everytime. It doesn't seem like the
best way though to me. It would seem like you're substantially reducing
the capacity of the TB by doing this. Instead of only flowing air, the TB
now has to flow nitrous and the added fuel. I would think the effective
CFM of the TB would be substantially reduced in terms of the air it could
flow. Obviously, the whole point of nitrous is that it brings additional
air into the combustion chamber, so maybe this isn't a big issue at all???
I don't know.
The simple carbuerated nitrous kits use a plate below the carb, why not do
this with a TB setup as well??
