Nitrous questions

[SamhainZ28]

Okay heres the low down of what i'm getting. I'm getting a single nozzle dry kit from Harris Speed Works, it comes with everything i need to start a kit up. I'm also getting a progressive interface nitrous controller to go with it. My questions are, do i absolutely need a window switch? where in accordance to the MAF should i mount the nozzle? What should my A/F ratio be when I spray? My car is a 2000 camaro z28 A4. any help would be apreciated

three words... WET PLATE KIT

That is all.

[WildBillyT]

Yes. Go with a wet kit.

anymore advice? i keep hearing bad things about wet kits, so i was generally trying to stay away from them

I think you have your information backwards.

If this is your first attempt at using n2o you may want to consider going to a professional to have the system put together and installed. This would help you to avoid things like grenading your intake manifold or possibly worse.

what did you hear bad about wet kits? setting up a wet kit correctly will keep you from having to worry about the air fuel.....

I've heard of people blowing up thier manifolds, frying piston rings, and some others i can't think of at the moment. I've been doing research on LS1tech and everyone is torn between saying wet is better and dry is better, and its hard to makes heads of which way to go. I don't let anyone work on my car but me so thats out, besides i don't feel like spending the little extra money I have for someone else to install it for me.

The majority of people in this thread say that dry is the safer of the 2

they say that because if your fuel solenoid goes bad you spraying straight n2o into your engine with no fuel to compensate, n2o solenoids have 1000psi behind them, fuel has 42psi... how often do you think the fuel noids go bad? Nitrous isnt really something you want to be a first time installer of unless your willing to fix a blown engine. i would have a professional install the first one then learn more about how it works and so on then maybe install i larger kit yourself later. btw the guy that told me about the pressure behind the noids and why the fuel one never really goes bad is really smart
