Hey everyone, I need some help on this matter. I have read many mixed reviews about whether a wet spray kit is better than a dry spray kit or vice versa. I went to 2 different performence shops(speed shop and dynamic turbo) in miami,fl. and one told me dry the other wet and also what kind : NOS, ZEX, NX, etc. I mean can I please get some helpful info here. I don't plan on going over a 75 shot. I know people might think a 100 shot is fine cus it's a v6 but I just wana play it safe. Thanks for any help.
Im so against nos. The consequences are not worth the gain for me. But I've heard dry is better. I'm sure others that have this or know more will chime in and elaborate.
Go with what ever Yohan suggests. I went to the speed shop to mod up my accord. Suprisingly he knew alot about our cars. Yohan was straight up with me and took care of me and my car. For my next mod I will definitly hit him up. Good luck!
dry delivers less power then wet. also wet can cool down the gas so it will be better performance. but either of them will hurt the engine the same way by burning all of the oil off the cylinder walls so the walls will scratch on the last stroke so either way dont do it often or you will need new rings and at minimum a new hone on the block.
From what I know, don't spray in first, and get a window switch. That's the extent of my knowledge of nitrous. As others have said, the potential bad consequences for me far outweigh the short-term positives. I know it's a "cheap" way to make a lot more power, but I shy away from that stuff. Too many things can go wrong.
about the oil burning and having the cylinder take one stroke with a lack of oil because it got partially burnt up. does that occur with synthetic oil as well?
No. Synthetic is slightly thinner but has less impurities than conventional oil. I have used synthetic oil in my car from the first oil change, not a signle solitary issue in over 70k of driving using synthetic, except better performance.
nitrous is better than forced induction all day every day.. specialy a wet kit. because a turbo or supercharger will abuse you engine everyday... nitrous is only temporarly when you need it ..:up2:
I've had many an N20 car and I'd never run dry for anything over a 50 shot (and even then I'd prefer wet). Our injectors can probably handle the extra fuel load at 50, but past that you'd be pushing your luck on the dry.
Of your choices I'd go NX if you want an off the shelf kit, but I've used NOS before on a direct port with great results.
Either way make sure you budget for a bottle heater (HUGE difference) and a TPS switch (since we don't have throttle cables), and you should really think about adding a FPSS (fuel pressure safety switch) and a remote bottle opener (if you don't want to cruise around with it always open, or don't think you'll be using it just on the track).
Post up if you have anymore questions. I've installed a lot of kits into a lotof cars.
