Default NOS Questions?

Will the dry manifold system harm my engine at all after more and more uses? They say it wont unless when you stay at safe levels. Another thing they said if u dont throttle all the way, it wont work. Does this mean I can have it on, take off the line without full throttling so I wont peel out, and then full throttle? Thanx

N20 from most sytems only shooot n2o into your engine when your at WOT (wide open throttle) this is to protect against detonation.

Running safe levels of n20 is fine for your engine,.

I have a ZEX kit, My COMPLETLY STOCK DX with 150,000 miles on it, with 4 inch wide bobo tires, and a beat stock clutch went 15.1 @ 89 mph... I used 116 oct. gas with a 75 shot... The kit has a Arming switch that willn't let it spray when its off, and a WOT switch that only sprays when it is armed and at WOT... Only disadvange is that nos is $30 a bottle and it only last about 2-3 minutes... I spent $120 last month on filling the bottle, I can't help it, the car LOVES the spray !!! But filling the bottle get old ( I have already bought a turbo, intercooler, and msd BTM for a homemadeturbo ).

ole yea, to answer your question, I've been through 7 seven bottle in last few months and no probs here... wet kits are more reliable b/c they use their own nozzle to shoot extra gas in, if one of your stock injectors clog or screw up////// BOOOOM !!! But I don't think twice about spraying my "DRY" kit..

just keep the dry kit at safe levels. . . under 70 shot . as per NOS techs.
i tried to go above that and found out it was killer lean . i upgraded to a wet kit since and running fine so far.
