Thought I would post this for anyone that may have a V6 Camaro or know someone that does.

Base Line was 229HP & 223 ft/lbs
Nitrous was 303HP & 346 ft/lb
This was using a Nitrous Supply dry kit using a 40N jet and a 42 bypass jet with 950psi bottle pressure, A/F ratio was around 11.5. We also tested a 36 jet which made 267HP & 285 ft/lb but was running rich at 9.2 and was also only ran to about 5k RPM. All in all I was impressed with the way the car responded to the 40 jet. Most places rate that at between 70-75 flywheel HP and this car picked up 74HP to the wheels.
This particular car had a few mods which may explain why the car responded so well to the nitrous. It had a mild Comp cam, 1.8 rockers, headers and a full exhaust.
This year of Camaro was a little awkward to install the nozzle in seeing as how the MAF is part of the throttle body it self. The nozzle ended up being a little closer to the plenum than I normally like but it seemed to work well. The only issue we had was that because the nozzle had to be placed in the throttle body (which was fairly thin) it had managed to come lose slightly and had turned and ended up facing sideways in the throttle body. This initially caused some strange things with the AFR due to it wanting to stall the air through the MAF and causing the computer to pull pulse width when it first activated. As soon as the nozzle direction was fixed all of those issues went away and the car became very consistent. As a note for anyone that is installing a nozzle directly into th throttle body you may want to use a small amount of lock tight to keep the nozzle from moving.
If anyone has any questions let me know.
