dry kits like Zex's have an NMU box that raises the fuel pressure at spray to add fuel... now you have nothing at all that adds fuel?

Just don't understand why people throw nitrous kits on there car without knowing anything about them. Damn fast and the furious movies

Do you know the difference between a wet and dry kit? Just so we're on the right page.

this is what i say. get a wet kit, and have everythnig tweaked, or just tweak your kit you have now so it is running optimum. get a stage 3 clutch or 6 puck clutch and light flywheel. like hdss or xtss. that will help your setup drasticly. help get the power to the ground bc that stock clutch and flywheel with nitrous setup A: wont last long B: the heavier flyhweel slows down the rotation mass you need sumthnig to speed up the rotation mass like a lighter flywheel, those mods will definitly make a difference in power and Rev quicker rev high rpm faster ect. basic stuff. and definitly supporting modifications for nitrous. fuel,fuel rail,calibrated psi for the ammount of nitrous you are running and all that good stuff.

i would say a good clutch and flywheel combo and good driving could get you in the high 13s given your system is tweaked to optimum performance

Of course I understand the difference between wet and dry, I'm no noob when it comes to this.

The only thing I've done to increase fuel is the adj fpr which bumps up the fuel pressure. I also run 93 octane gas now.

Yeah I'm surprised my stock clutch has held up so far but I will look into maybe the ACT street/strip clutch and flywheel combo.

Thanks guys.

Raising the base fuel pressure will definitely make it run more rich.

All dry kits work on the same principle: Increase fuel pressure in relation to amount of nitrous being injected.

I do agree that a wet kit would be better since you have more control over your fuel needs.

lol @ 75 dry kit

I was running a 100shot NX wet kit, and my fuel solenoid connection failed, so it ended up being 100 dry. needless to say, I burned up 2 valves, burned 2 electrodes completely off the spark plugs, and burned 1 valve seat, and limped home on 2 cylinders.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting a wet setup and ensuring its running properly.

So you were running a WET kit yet still managed to burn 2 valves, 2 plugs, and a valve seat and now you recommend ME getting one? LOL! I just thought that was amusing and now I know to stay away from NX wet kits.

J/k I'm going to go with a NOS wet kit, thanks.

bumping it up 2 psi isnt going to do anything when you are using a 75shot, if you look at it from a boost standpoint and FMU to get 75 out of a a turbo motor you need to run lets say 6 psi (just for arguments sake) with a 12:1 FMU you would need to bump up the fuel pressure 72 PSI to get remotely the right about of fuel. Like i said 2 psi doesnt do anything other than make your fuel economy go to ****.

no the fault was my own. I screwed up the wiring connection and it came loose and didnt find out until AFTER I was removing the system and my **** was blown up. one less connection I had to undo lol.

on to bigger and better things

75 dry does not equal 75 horsepower. I've seen a few dynos on n2o Hondas where a 75 dry only yielded about 50 or so whp, I know certain variables exist such as bottle pressure, air temp, etc.

Dry kits pretty much suck.

And Clip, sorry to hear that, I soldered all my connections ;-)

a 75 dry shot will net around 75whp if it is TUNED, there are quite a few guys who run dry shots on there drag cars however the fuel is added via the injectors and standalone ems...

I think it's the pine scent that's holding you back. Switch to that "new car" scent, and it'll feel like a brand new car + 11ty billion HP shot!
