Just found out the flow problem stems from the fact that gasoline 
molecules are heavier than the air or nitrous molecules. The gas 
molecules have more momentum which causes them to "prefer" cylinders 1 
and 2. Cylinders 1 and 3 get the nitrous so you have a lean condition 
which is very bad. Somebody else on the list talked about direct feed to 
each cylinder...this sounds like a good idea; but do they make anything 
like this?
