Default Re: nitrous

an upgraded ignition system wouldnt be a bad idea either.


and anything that gets more fuel into your motor while spraying is good.

I was thinking more from a wet standpoint, however even with a dry system it'd be cheaper to get an fpr safety switch (which would cut nitrous if the fuel drops) and not have to deal with an afc. but either way IMO the reason why most people get nitrous is because they can't afford a turbo. if that's they case, then if you're going to spend money for injectors + afc you should be putting together a turbo parts list instead of the world's most reliable nitrous system.

also about timing, that depends on your car. some cars won't let you retard your timing through conventional means - the ecu detects it and corrects. so then you're looking at an MSD BTM (which isn't too cheap) or similiar product

so pretty much it looks like the money you save by getting a dry kit, u end up losing because you have to buy an almost new fuel system.....so it is smarter to get a wet kit in ever aspect

basically. but if your serious about nitrous then direct port is really the only way to go. wet shots sometimes pool in the intake manifold causing for inconsistant distribution...but the added fuel gives a safety buffer. just all in what youre willing to spend.

im pretty positive they have any size shot you would want... If Im not mistaken NOS and nitrous express have good direct port kits. They should have information on their site.
