Short burst of NOS to spool Turbo's?

[Totsabe]

I thought I heard a rumor that a very short squirt of Nitrous would make the Turbo's spool up faster. My memory is a little fuzzy, but I think it was actually into the exhaust after combustion.

Anyone hear anything similar?

pretty common, though most inject it normally.

Inject it normally, but just at the initial tip in for a second or two?

some racers shoot co2 in to the turbo . maybe thats what your thinking of

the CO2 is sprayed on the intercooler... all youd need to kill the lag is a single fogger noscle.. say 50-75 Hp and wire it to come on at wot, and turn off when boost hits 5 pounds...

I've heard of this in rally cars. They inject nitrous into the inlet of the turbine to keep the turbo spooled during shifts, and its probably not enough to damage anything because the shifts are pretty quick.
