Right this may sound dum but what is the difference between dry shot and a wet shot of nos apart from the obvious wet & dry lol. How exactly does it work? all i know is you push a button you go fast and every thing goes flyin past really fast just like in the fast and the furious films :lol: How hard is it to fit and would it fit any car or do you need a certain kit? Steveos probaly the best man to answer this.

Combustion Cycle is made of Air/Fuel and Spark. You make more power by adding to all three but all three have to be kept in balance. If you add Air you have to add fuel. Adding Nitrous is adding Air so you have to add Fuel as well. Wet-Kits: Wet-Nitrous either uses its own supply of gas or taps a fuel line and injects gasoline via an extra injector solenoid. Wet kits allow for precise fuel metering but can strain the fuel system if they scavange too much. Dry-Kits: Dry kits rely on "existing" Fuel sorces to provide the extra gas. Extra gas is acomplished through either increasing the fuel pressure or having the computer add more fuel. 10 years ago Dry kits normally meant either adding fuel pressure by injecting nitrous into the fuel-pressure regulat vaccum control line or adding it via a computer modification to the ECM. Today "dry kits" typically blow through a Mass Air Flow Meter and rely on it to detect the extra oxygen and provide more gas. Advatanges: Easy to install. Disadvatages youre asking the fuel system to do something it wasnt designed to do and that can cause problems.
