going with nitrous

Since the turbo swap , Would be out of the question for me right now , I am thinking about going with nitrous , Since my cars a 1988 with 145k Miles on it , i think im only going to go like 25 shot , And if i want to go higher , Witch injectors should i get ? What kit do you think would be best for me , Im deff thinking about wet , Because i have heard alot of problems with dry , Also before trying this I know im going to have to Do the 300zx ecu , And maf So i can do a cold air intake , doing that will allow me to run a higher shot right ? and any ways im sure it would be a much easy installation , what are your opinons on this?

because you are totally clueless about it and a 25 shot is a waste of nitrous.

before the thought even crossed my mind to put a nitrous kit on my car i had already known plenty. 25 shot of nitrous doesn't necessarily mean it will give you 25 hp. do you plan on going for a wet or dry setup? you don't need all that other **** you were talking about in your first post if running such a small shot. I am running a 75 shot on my car and have changed nothing as far as the fuel system goes. do not waste your time or money on a nitrous kit. you had a hard enough time installing a throttlebody on your car.

if the car doesn't run properly after the install of a part then you must have done something wrong. If you can't get your car to run right with a bigger throttlebody then you have no reason to even think about installing a nitrous kit.

if you knew how to set it then it would've been done. especially since it only takes a few minutes to set. please give up on modifying your car. and his name is not 'Card'.

if you really want to do it go with a dry shot 60, very simple and wont blow your motor. forget about going wet to much to worry about unless your mechanically inclined and know what to keep an eye out for. basically a dry kit is plug and play and no need to change anything. i dont know what you heard bad about a dry kit because i owned one for yrs with no problems unless you wanna spray more than a 70 shot dry would be perfect for you.

Houston, we have a war!

Anyways, wet is safer than dry. Only do this if you REALLY know what you're doing. Read up if you don't otherwise say bye to that VE or VG or whatever it is.

wet is not safer period. fuel puddles and can cause detonation and can fail quicker due to failure of solenoids. with the dry kit you get two nitrous solenoid that controls your stock fpr to increase fuel supply, a lot less to worry about. the only thing is with dry, a heavy shot is dangerous because you tax the injectors. i had dry and sprayed forever all day long and soon as i converted to wet is when all my problems started. i suggest a dry kit if your not looking for a lot of power and are not mechanically inclined to monitor the system properly.

I think you should go with a 50 shot dry, and put a window switch on it so it only sprays from 2500 rpm til boost is about 90%. That will help you spool faster, and should keep you within somewhat safe parameters.

thats it, cant be put any better. then when you want more power and high shot then you convert to wet, by then you know what your doing. thats the safest way.
