Default switching from dry to wet setup -Have Q's.

I know it's a nitrous question, but i'll post it with the trucks b/c its going on my truck.

So i'm switching from a dry to wet setup on my 5.3L. I have all of the parts because i actually bought a NOS wet EFI kit. My question is, where should i put the fogger nozzle? pointing straight at the throttle body? I went to Checker and the guy suggested to get a 90 degree fan spray for it for the simple reason that if my angle on the straight shot at the t/b was off a little bit there would be fuel puddling in the intake(boom).
Also, I do not like the sprayer that came with the NOS kit. What nozzle should i replace it with? 90 degree fan spray is what I was leaning towards, but you guys may have better ideas...? Almost done, where do i tap into for fuel on the fuel rail? do i need to regulate the flow of fuel somehow or is that simply done with the fuel jet? I also have a nitrous pressure regulator and a fuel pressure safety switch <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
thanks <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Use the fogger nozzle and tap into the fuel rail on the passenger side at the schreader valve. Put it about 2 inches from the throttle body. Spray the hell out of it...150hp...you will love it...lol

On the fuel rail, passengers side, there is a screw on fitting that your fuel solenoid needs to be hooked up to.

I would suggest a 90* valve of some sort. NX and TNT both use these, but sure if NOS puts out one. But, when you do it, place it as far back in your intake tube as possible. That gives the air / fuel / nitrous a better chance to mix before it goes into the manifold. You want to make sure that all cylinders get an equal amount of mix.

As far as puddling, if you use a full throttle and a window switch and only have it come on at say 3000+ rpms, you should be flowing enough air to keep that from happening.

I would suggest as well that you do the EGR trim Free Mod...any higher than 100 hp wet should consider this for safety.

make sure you take out the valve thats on the fuel rail. if not then you fuel solenoid will not flow any gas.
