not dry. do a wet shot. you don't have to rely on the computer to add the fuel for you.

Read up my posts in Nitrous, and you'll learn almost all you need to know... just running a base Zex kit isn't the best idea though, but read up, as many of us have already played around enough in the field.

Search for nitrous, with posts written by Wedrivescions

Read up before you buy anything, Becuase most of the times that nitrious blows a motor up its becuase the driver didnt do his homework. They either ran too lean of a shot, or too big of a shot. Installed it wrong, ran it cold. things like that. Wet is safer then dry as long as you stay with a normal shot. just my .02

you gotta pay to play bro. a decent kit is going to be 500+. i w ould suggest running a wet system also. and d the research. you can also make your kit cheaper by buying some parts seperate.

but as a side note. i wouldnt spray. everyone i know has blown sooner or later from spraying. and for that kinda of money your dumping on spray i would rather save up extra for a head swap and emanage. cuz whats gonna happen when you run out of spray and gota refill.. you have to think of the long term use. in the end what would have been more costly.. months of buying spray + start up. or simple head swap with an ems.

if anything dude swing by the miami lakes meet. you can ask me or 2 other guys that go about it who are experienced with nAWZ!

I just think it isnt as safe as a wet kit and have seen more cars blown with a dry than a wet kit.

Not with a 50 shot, you shouldnt blow it. But I wouldnt go much above that, say 75.

Wet is the way to go, from what ive heard in diff car meets and from friends who have planned on getting nitrous or have it.
