That is partly correct....the reason 2 shots is better is because you can run the small one sooner than 1 big shot. Then the 2nd shot comes in later. Plus this allows you run 1 shot pre-CAC, this produces more power due too the cooling effect....AND prevents snuffing out the fire because it gives the nitrous more time too accept heat from the surrounding air.

Diesel Nitrous systems should not be labelled like a gasser system. A .046 jet may produce 100hp in 1 truck and 160hp in the next. All depends on the amount of extra fuel, where the jet is placed, and a couple other factors.
