3800 nitrous

[LP 3800]

What is a dry kit and a wet kit exactly do? I thought I knew the difference, but I don't.
Also which is better?
Thanks

A n2o wet kit is when the n2o is activated and spraying the system sprays a matching amount of fuel thru the nozzle with the n2o to give a “more accurate shot”
A n2o dry kit is when the n2o is activated and spraying the system uses a vacume to adjust the fuel pressure and use the cars injectors to spray the fuel accordingly

dry kit is nitrous only, wet kit is nitrous and gas. A lot of the dry kits have some sort of provision to pump up the stock fuel during activation (Zex), but power levels are limited on dry kits with our motors to about 75hp (safe limit). Just like the IC it supercools the incoming charge to make a more dense atmosophere so the bigger the shot, the more gas you have to give it. A dry system is very effective on our cars, but with your IC I doubt it will provide much benefit. You would definately have better tunability with a wet setup (like the NOzzle), but you have to shell out some big cash for it.

Wet or Dry
This depends on what you want to do,, if you are going to run less then 70-75 then dry would be best for you it is perfectly stable and easier to install..
But if you are going higher then 75 you might want to try a wet shot since the wet does manage the fuel better when spraying.

dude, i got a wet shot on my brothers GT. i would HIGHLY recommend a wet kit to be on the safe side. the next time you come out here, i will show you what the setup looks like.

Wet kit a lot safer to do, but gains aren't as high as dry kits. Either way it's not that great for the motor, but it depends on what you are trying to achieve.

Ya, I got think you would mess up your engine pretty fast sprayin a 75 shot all the time w/o internal work like most people do.

Its fun while it last though.

I still havnt been in a car with the old N20 .....Help me......help......

Get yourself some forged 9.5 to 1 pistons, mls head gaskets, arp head stud kit, arp rod bolt, p&p heads, L32 rods. Then get a wet kit and spray 100-150 shot. Thats my plans. h34r: I am tryin to find out if I can get some lock wire heads gaskets or get the heads and block O-ringed.
