Ok guys, I have a 2004 Z71 with a 5.3 and 3.73 gears. As far as engine mods I have a k&n 77 series intake, True dual 2 1/2" exhaust, MSD superconductor wires and a 93 octane Wheately tune. I want to spray a 100 hp shot. Will my injectors handle a dry 100 or should I get a wet kit. I won't be racing every week, I just want to beat the ocasional chiped diesel at the stop light, but the main reason is I want to pull this truck in the light classes at the pulls this summer. Again, I won't be doing this once a week, we're looking more at once or twice a month durring the summer. I know I'll have to get new plugs, I just want to know exactly what I need and what my engine can handle before I get started. Thanks for the help!

 

get a good wet kit and spray a 125 shot

 

from what ive read a wet kit is the best

id also like to know what would NEED to be done to a stock motor to handle a 100-125 wet shot

 

nothing, a stock motor can handle it just fine!
actually a guy at the track last week put in 150pills in his stock truck except for exhaust and ran some nice times with no problems...

 

sweet thanks

also how long does it typically take to install a system with out any bells or whistles just the kit

 

Thanks a lot guys. so a 125 wet would be fine. Should I get my tune redone?

 

i would recomend it, a tune alone is a great thing to do so you will benefit more from it.
but if you cant afford it at the moment i wouldnt worry about it.

1.5 to 2 hours to install i guess, theres not much there to do.

Basically a nitrous tune is just some retard in timing and sometimes more fuel

On a stock tune the timing is already low so there is no worry.
as for as fuel goes since its a wet kit the fuel is sprayed in with the nitrous so theres really no worry there as well.

I would get a FPSS (fuel pressure safety switch) though just incase your pump gives out you wont have to worry about leaning out your engine.

 

Ok, so a wet kit it is. Is there a brand beter than others or are they all about the same as far as price and included hardware?

 

personally when i get my kit im going to get the Tb plate kit from nitrous outlet ( they're a sponsor see the right column)

 

I've been looking at a cold fusion kit, have you heard anything good or bad about them. I'd like to stay under the $500 range for the kit.
