i will have some tomorrow.


NX kit (wet) 75 shot. people are going to post both ways here i heard this about wet...i heard this about dry. basically if the proper safety preparations are with either than you should be pretty safe. and as long as you dont go spray crazy also. i am installing full throttle switch along with a window switch, fuel pressure safety switch, automatci heater, and the blow down tube, oh and dont forget the purge which i believe i saw someone before post that a purge is nothing but to intimidate the competition. this is not true the purge clears the line of air and make sure that nitrous is waiting at the solenoid. this will let it hit quicker and harder, especially help in the 60'

Actually.. a purge is only needed on a wet system, because it bascially clears the fuel/nitrous out of the lines like you were saying. On a dry kit, there's no fuel, no need to clear anything out!

I have had wet and dry kits on multiple cars but it does not mean I am expert. Purge served mulitple purposes for me. Wet and Dry it would clear the air out of the lines. When you first open your bottle Nitrous fills the line and pushes air forward. Purging the air makes for a direct and harder first hit. Second when you close the bottle you can release the pressure and clear the lines to make your solenoids last longer and release the stale unused Nitrous.

I have a 75 wet shot. I went with the wet shot because I didn't want to rely on the MAF to add fuel. Also I think that the fuel injectors are working about as hard as they need to without putting n2o on top of it. Also the computer tune isn't quite as sensative.

A wet kit sprays both fuel and nitrous through the nozzle into the engine , while a dry kit just sprays nitrous . The dry kit depends on the injectors and fuel system to add the necessary fuel .

the purge goes for wet and dry....u don not NEED it for either but it is good to have......the only prob with wet kits is that they can (puddle) and cause expolsions....dry is safer as long as u can be sure u r getting enough fuel.....u run lean u burn stuff up! if anyone is intrested i am selling a NOS 05116 kit w/purge for 450 no bottle...

i just bought but did not install yet a N/X wet kit and i will shoot it with a 50 shot for a while....i still need to buy the purge kit and window switch and i guess any other safety switches that may be nessesary....i have been told by majority to go with a wet kit, easier to tune since you are already adding fuel and not depending on your computer to do it....i would go WET
