make darn sure you put on a fuel pressure gauge. and make sure the plugs are new and the wires are good. missfires will become your worst enemy. go wet kit. get a good kit also.

I'm not trying to be an ***, but it's N2O. NO2 is nitrogen dioxide.

I would go with a wet kti in your situation. Basiclly everything should work fine as long as all the n/a basics are up to par. What kit are you looking into?

What are some good kits to look into? Whats the diff between wet and dry? On a wet kit you spray directly into the manifold right? If so, how do you compensate teh extra fuel? External fuel pump?

Ok a wet kit has (2) solenoids. A n20 solenoid and a fuel solenoid. When you activate the system a certain amount of fuel(coming from your schrader valve or from your fuel hose) and n20(depending on what jets you have in the nozzles) sprays into your intake tube(usually) right before the throttle body. It then spreads throughout your intake manifold.

A dry kit has (1) solenoid. A n20 solenoid. When you activate the system n20 sprays into your intake tube(basiclly) right before you MAF(mass air flow sensor). When the n20 goes through the MAF your vehicles computer deciedes how much fuel is needed and adds it via your fuel injectors. By that time the n20 is already in your intake manifold and is mixing with the fuel.

What are the advantages to going with a wet kit? I know usually the harder to install something the better gains you get. It seems like the dry is the easier to install, so obviously it isn't as good lol. Thanks for the help
