Post Vortech elbow and N2O.

I just got my Vortech metal elbow I ordered from Summit cause my stock rubber piece was tore up. Now the problem is that there is a divider inside of the elbow that goes all the way from the throttle body side to about 3" from the MAF side. Now, would it be safe for me to put my dry nozzle (Venom) in front of the divider? The nozzle would have to be about 2" infront of the divider and I am worried about how the N2O would get disbursed evenly between the two sides, as the nozzle would be almost directly into that damn divider wall. You think that the N2O would have enought space to spread before the wall and finally into the TB?

If I would have know that the wall was that long I would not have gotten it.

Thanks,
Jeff

Cool

I ran into this same problem last year, I had a Porcharger Elbow, I ended up selling my elbow but I have heard of guys cutting the divider out but it is supposed to be pretty difficult.

I have my nozzle in the CAI almost a foot from the elbow. At 3000 rpm and above, the air is moving fast enough to pull it into the motor easily. I don't think you will have any problem at all...
my 2 cents
