Re: Dry + Boost (romoracing)
u should specify your question a littler more. is your motor stock? im assuming it is, if so I dont really suggest you run a turbo and nitrous on your stock block. but id suggest researching how nitrous works and how nitrous works with turbo setups a little bit more.

dont worry about my block i got some stuff up my sleeves. wink wink But i was just curious if i would do any damage to the motor or to the turbo. cuz if dry wont work i can get a wet kit for 50 bucks more. also i know nitrous im new to the trubo stuff so thats why im asking this question

Ummm..huh? Do you have aftermarket pistons/sleeves/rods/crank....what? If all you have is exhaust and stupid things like that yes you can blow it up. Done correctly though a nice turbo/nitrous setup will provide more power then turbo alone and can be made reliably as well.

Re: Dry + Boost (adseguy)
ya for real if your talkin about 50 bucks making your decision between nitrous systems then im willing to bet your running stock motor. ever heard of head lifting? also what are you using to tune it with? fmu?

me too, since the fmu has already increased rail pressure sky high, then on top of that, the dry kit increases fuel pressure

Why would you use a VAFC on a built block? Get some real engine management.

I would definitely suggest that over the hack, if you can afford it. The nitrous controls are pretty pathetic though.

Agreed. I wasn't very happy with Hondata's nitrous controls.
If you place the dry nitrous nozzle 18" from the throttle body you will not have distribution issues.
