A while back my fuel solenoid got some crap in it and got stuck open and was dumping gas into the motor. The thing is it was only putting it into the #4 cylinder which is the first place for it to go. Now my question is if you have a single nozzle in the tb elbow how is it getting to the cylinders equally with the way the intake is set up, isnt the nitrous/fuel going to want to go to the first available place ? Maybe its just late and im overthinking things... :|
 
The purpose of the nozzle is to "atomize" the fuel/nitrous when it enters the intake tract. With a fuel solenoid stuck open, you're going to get a ton of fuel which will puddle and run down #4. But with a properly atomized fuel/nitrous mix, the velocity of the intake path will carry it all the way to the end of the intake manifold to the proper cylinders.
