Not familiar with aem nitrous control, does it use mainly same features/setting as hondata? if so I don't see why a dry kit won't work well on your setup.

All a dry kit requires is that you use an outside form of compensation to provide yourself with the extra fuel. I'm not familiar with the EMS, but if it has some sort of nitrous fuel map, you can add more fuel whenever the N2O is activated.

Otherwise, you can always use simple "hacks" like bumping the fuel pressure, you just have to be careful.

Dry kits are generally not done on Turbo cars because most Turbocharged vehicles use FMUs to increase fuel pressure with boost. Then the dry kit would try to increase even higher and you'd end up completely choking off the pump.

As long as you're not running high fuel pressure when under boost you should be able to get it to work, depends on how your turbo system is setup. If your EMS is capable?? Delivering more fuel with it when the N2O is in use would be best. Good luck.
