Do they play nice together or should I keep them seperated?
I'm thinking about a dry kit, but this will be my first N20 experience, so any suggestions will be welcomed. My truck is an 06 RST Jon Moss edition with the 5.3/auto combo.


Thanks,
Nick

 

I asked this question for you on another site, This is the answer I got from a very smart man.

I see no reason it shouldn't work well. The pcm sets the injectors for the higher fuel flow required for the E85, the N20 wet system add's the fuel it needs. I'd be cautious of a dry system though.


Hope that helps you.

Thanks for doing that. I know people say the wet kit is safe when set up properly, but for some reason I'm scared of them.

 

having too much fuel will only make it safer and slightly less powerful with less heat and detonation issues what is to be scared of?

 

I've just heard of lots of wet kits going boom. I'm sure it was due to inproper set up. But, it still makes me worry about throwing it on my truck.

 

I wonder how the E85 will affect the plunger in the fuel solenoid on a wet kit? It could cause the rubber to swell and get stuck. Some one has got to know for sure.

 

Here's the new NX which we do carry. Wet or dry with E85 is just a matter of the tune like normal. What the real difference is on the wet kit is having wet E85 compitable materials.

How much more, if any Hp/Tq does E85 make more then regular gas?

Thanks.

 

Well in and of itself, the E85 fuel will make no more HP. However, it does allow a higher hp to be run safely. It's the higher octane that allows this. Just like running some good race gas.

Do you run E85 ALL the time. My Tahoe was E85/Flex Fuel. It has a sensor that tells the PCM what fuel you are running. Adjusts timing and fuel flow for E85 or XX octane. The flow rates and timing are very different. A safe E85/NO2 tune may be bad news if you fill it up with unleaded one time and floor it. Just something to think about. Then again maybe the PCM can be told to run XX timing for E85 and XX timing for gas. I dunno.
