Glad to see a satisfied customer with this kit. Any 1/4 mile numbers? I watched the youtube install video of this kit and they just run the nitrous line through the sound tube and thats it? Is this what you did? Just doesnt seem very strategic or secure laying in there. As far as the dry thing, something about fuel being sprayed with the shot makes me feel safer.
I like this about the JMS kit. Nearly complete as is.
Good times on the 150 hit. Any dyno numbers?
Probably my car you watched, It just kinda ended up there. It moves in there a little bit I'm sure but it was easier than using tie wraps and anchoring it and then sealing a new hole in the intake tube. I've seen one kit that had a nozzel from a wet kit with the fuel side capped off and spraying through that. I'm not a flow engineer so can't tell ya if it makes any difference, but it's at 850-1100psi going into an airstream toward the TB It'll get there.
Thx for the info. Ive got a manual car and Id like to play around on the streets so the progressive hit seems like a good choice for me especially on street tires. Im afraid of running a wet plate kit and hitting it on a 60 roll and blowing the tires off. No fun. Im just speculating here but the softer progressive hit seems like it will be much more effective for me on street tires at first...although nothing feels better than a hard hit that hooks. Ive got a 3.31 gear so maybe a wet hard hit wont be as dramatic as Im thinking. Just thinking out loud here...Probably my car you watched, It just kinda ended up there.

Best 1/4 time was a 10.99@127 had a crappy 60' and an 1/8 of 7.19@101(Not @ home so logs aren't with me so time is by memory). Had to set progressive @ 30-40% to get it to leave(also had it spray through shifts, not my usual setting). And this reminds me of the only thing I don't like about it(but haven't seen an affordable progressive that doesn't do this). If you set it(like I usually do) to shut off @ shift points and you need the progressive it does it for each gear. So I try to use as little Progressive as I can. My choice is to use minimum delay(none if it'll take it, last ditch to try to hook), Ramp up rate(again as quick as it can take it I adjust this after getting to 40% start), but 1st I try the start % will turn it down to 40%.
I know they've sold a bunch of kits and had no complaints that I've heard but I guess everyone is being sneeky.
The one thing I'd say if ya get a wet kit look into a fuel pump voltage booster, I've seen one data log from a wet kit(.052 jet) and it DID NOT GO LEAN but fuel pressure did drop from 50+ into the 40's, but A/F stayed safe. So I'd recommend the booster.
I hear a lot about "soft" hits but sorry no such thing. 580#ft Torque hits hard, whether wet or dry. The "soft" hit on the dry kit is engine related due to the fuel being added from the injectors before the N2O actually "hits". No way you're doing(unless tire spin is the point) either set up on the street, on street tires.

Good point, I wasnt sure how the ecu's reacted to dry kits but seems like there are several examples here with no issues.
So with a 3.31 gear on a progressive hit at a 60 roll, you still think itll break loose real bad? Ive ran spray only once, a 150 dry kit on a 95gt. Slower car, but at 60 it put it down on 245 street tires. I guess maybe it was much slower though lol
Wow. You drove from NJ to south MS and now you have a non performing kit. That sucks. What was the final result from JMS? Did they try to rectify the problem? This doesnt sound good from a customer service stand point. On this subject, Ive heard nothing but good things from Nitrous Outlet.
Thats impressive. Stock plugs? Tires? Any dyno numbers?
I was nearly sold on this until I looked at the JMS dry kit, it got me thinking again. I guess Id like to hear from someone running the Nitrous Outlet wet plate kit.
