do you think it would be equivalent if i used a fuel jet in the nitrous port? cause i have numbers 34 and that is for fuel could i use that and get like a 60 shot about?

Yea, there's nothing wrong in doing so, the jet is just 0.001" smaller. I don't know where you would be hp wise but it's not that big of a deal. How come you don't want to just run the 65hp combination?

well i am currentlky running a 75 shot and i just want something a little less for those unecpected moments w/o running through as much nitrous, also are all brands the same in terms of shot like if i got an nx nozzle that says 36 on it and then i got a zex nozzle that says 36 would they be the same, other than the fact that nx measures their shots at the wheels? but with other brands as well

I don't work with nitrous a lot and I've really only worked with NOS and Zex systems. If the actual jets are interchangable (i.e. the NX jet fits in the Zex line) then you'll be just fine. I've never tried this so I'm not really sure as Zex jets differ from NOS ones. Sizing wise like I said if you have a 36 jet it's 0.036" so the same amount of nitrous/fuel will flow whatever brand it may be. Just play around, with a dry system increasing your fuel jet or decreasing your nitrous jet will lower your hp and that's just playing it safe. Don't mess around with vise versa unless you're monitoring your A:F, etc. Just my $0.02, sorry I can't help ya more.

If your "75 shot" is a .038 jet you are probably getting around a 40 hp gain to the wheels. Assuming your a/f ratio is okay....why would you want to shoot a smaller shot then that? I ran a .044 jet in my dry setup and it added about 60 hp to the wheels just enough to run 11s
