#54556, "Question about nitrous." Aug-21-03 04:55 PM by 98_silvergs
Okay, this dawned on me lately. I'm considering putting nitrous into my car. I have a few questions as to what would be my best bet. Wet or Dry, what's the differences? Whats the best brands? My friend who has an integra had a wet kit, and if i remember correctly it kicked in at WOT. Is that how the wet kit works? I'm an auto so anything helping with pick up is the route i want to be in, i've never read up on nitrous so i'm clueless. I'm only doing last minute things before i sell my car in the winter. Thanks guys!

Wet kit is best. The difference it that with a wet ket it sprays extra gas along with the N2O. NOS, ZEX, NX are all good.

Any nirous kit can be set up this way....they just put a micro switch near your throttle cam so when you go WOT the Cam hits trips the switch activates the spray.

Why are you selling? Especialy in the winter...with a new Nitrous system? You'll probably get more for it in the spring...I guess it depends on where you are.

i agree with the others i have a nx wet kit and it works really well it's set a wot at the throttle body when it's at wot it sprays. venom also makes a kit it's not really a wet kit though. what it does is pulses the injectors to keep you air/fuel ratio ok. if it sences that your going lean it will cut off the nitrous flow. i original bought that one. but found it to hard to install so went with the nx and bough a a/f gauge. if you get this kit i would recommend you have a shop do the instalation. it's also more that the others (about 100 more) but it's also probably the safest. and with the zex kit you'll need a fuel pressure regulater to run to the box. good luck hunting

I had a 75 shot nx kit for a long time, make sure you upgrade your fuel pump to run more than a 50 shot, also if you go with the nx kit I would highly recommend getting their fuel pressure safety cut off. It plumbs into the fuel supply line and if your fp drops below an acceptable level it cuts the whole system off. Its only like an extra 100$, well worth it.
Always console a girlfriend in the death of a cat. Even if secretly you are the one who set it on fire and threw it into the ceiling fan.

our fuel systems and internals will stand up to a 75 shot. no need to go upgrading your fuel system unless your going with a bigger shot...say from a DP system
