Default Does anyone know if it is safe to run a WET nitrous kit on a d16z6??

I know nitrous isn't safe and all that but I don't know or hear, or read of anyone running a WET nitrous setup on a SOHC VTEC. I bought a NOS wet kit and plan on running a 50 shot. I have almost finished hooking everything up when I was thinking of anyone else running a 50 shot wet. I really couldn't think of any so I got on my trusty H-T forum and had to ask. I know plenty of people running the DRY setup such as the ZEX kit(yeah I know the safest on the market) or a NOS dry setup on their single cams. Just worried about it because I plan on finishing the hookup and filling the bottle by friday evening. I plan on doing a swap by mid summer but until then will the single cam survive. I know the wet is good on the DOHCs but I'm not there yet and I didn't want to buy the dry now and then have to sell it and get the wet later. TOO much time and money involved.

Thanks in advance for your replys.

Oh I have already done the fuel adjustment for the added fuel needed. The timing is also retarded the recommended 2 degrees w/ my MSD ignition and I have the 2 step colder sparkplugs. Anything that I can do bolt on wise for safety???

Don't go out and in one day use the hole bottle.

Why would a wet setup be any better on a DOHC compared to a SOHC? That makes no sense at all!
