the wet nitrous is much more involved, escpecially the installation process b/c you have to drill the intake manifold in order to put the jets in. its much more time consuming and if you dont know what you are doing, it is going to cost you a lot more to get it installed compared to the dry setup.

Another concept that hasn't been argued is the fact that with a dry setup when the nitrous is sprayed into the intake there is no way to make sure it is evenly distributed between each cylinder, when you have a wet setup each cylinder has its own jet, so you know it is evenly distributed, so you don't have to worry about one cylinder running to rich or too lean.

this is very true, and the reason i choke F22A1's quite often... i only took one apart but .. the first engine i smoked #3 had a small hole in it from severe detonation (lean).

i also run a big shot..

i guess dry is okay and prolly the best answer for casual sprayers, but if you wanna exceed like a 50 .. maybe a 75 (kinda pushin it) dry is okay.

if you're a stupid ***** like me and run the 125 nozzle.. get the wet i'm just too lazy.. when i get my F22B i will switch.

125 shot? It's no wonder you've blown your engine.

I think your mustang should get that nos system and your accord should just be driven daily. At least if I had a mustang that's the road I'd take.

hmm.. good to hear since i was leaning toward the nx kit for my next major mod. zex seems so played out. with NX's nozzles i hear puddling isnt much of an issue? any tips you can give would be cool.

What about the NOS Noszles kit that replaces the injectors? and sprays fuel and N20 in at the plenum? Kinda a hybrid wet system. seems promising and more foolproof than either wet or dry kits.

And to the guy spraying a 125 shot. You are f*cking crazy for real dood. Spray on brother.

The mustang isnt stock

I dunno i get bored .. the shot keeps my attention in the car.

I consider myself a good mechanic and i dont mind the occasionally piece of drama.. at least i dont have to rely on this car only.
