suprisinly enough the motor is a GM Goodwrench 350 with cast pistons,powdered connecting rods, with 30,000 miles on it before i even started spraying it. the motor is in my 85 shortbed chevy and i just recently pulled it out to put a big block in it more suitable for a bigger shot. the truck only had 3.08 gears and i just ran 265/60/15 all terrain tires when i ran it at the track. The best time i could pull out of it was a 14.50@98 mph. The thing that hurt me the most was my sixtey foot times they were a whooping 2.846
i only had a 125 shot on it, i did try a 150 once but it started to cough so i let out of it and put the 125 pills back in it. I put the bottle on it just for fun to go **** the mustang guys off and i had know clue it would have lasted like it did when i started spraying it but i always made sure that i wasnt running to much timing and that i was always running enough fuel pressure. All in all the motor was a tropper

One thing I was wondering...before or after the MAF sensor matter?...I have a open air filter.

The Venom kit that I have does not use the MAF sensor to adjust the fuel.
Venom kits use the 02's and TPS to adjust the injectior duty cycles.

One thing that gets me about a Dry shot is that... It is probably safer for the engine if done right, as in taking timing out and getting a suitable fule system that's capable of getting enough fuel to the cyliners to make of for the n20.....
So you should retard the timing(typically 2 degrees for every 50 shot of nitrous from what i hear).... but since Dry shots are supposed to be sprayed before the MAF, then will the CPU tell the motor to enrich the fuel even more than it is supoosed to be???
also... when you aren't spraying or your bottle is empty, how much HP will be lost from the lack of timing on say a 100 shot w/ 4 degrees taken out?
I like the dry kits, but this is the only concern I have when comparing to a wet kit.

I cant say much cause Im not very experianced with N20, this is just what I heard. But I have heard that even if you are using a dry shot, it does not matter if you spray before or after the MAF. Cause the MAF cant really read the Nitrous, an the only thing to do it just retard the timing* about like you said @8 for every 50 shot. But I really dont know much myself. That is just what I heard threw a few people. But I would really like to know what the real deal is.
Cause im about to install a dry shot on my 04 sbsc 5.3.
An if I do run a dry shot on my Nelson tune(that is not setup for N20 yet), what will happen?
An if Detenation does happen, will I hear it or fell it?
Cause I will stop if I can really hear or feel it.
