Default Nitrious and Injector size?

So I wanted to know if someone could explain to me why/why you don't need bigger injectors for a wet shot? Wouldn't that push your duty cycle up? thanks in advance.

With a wet shot you are not using the injectors to add fuel. The extra fuel that is needed is coming from the fuel rail/standalone through the wet nozzle into the intake.

with a wet shot injectors are unaffected although your fuel pump is... like mentioned fuel for a wet shot is mixed with the nitrous either at a plate or a fogger nozzle and the fuel is pulled off of the fuel rail. With a wet shot your motor has no idea its making the extra power. With a dry shot the motor does know and adds the extra fuel through the injectors. If your fuel pump cant keep up your motor will go lean and burn **** up.

With a wet shot, your chances of a nitrious backfire go up as well I figure.
So bigger injectors are not needed unless going with a dry or F.I.?
I'm thinking about getting a ZEX Blackout kit this is why I am asking, I don't wanna screw the motor u with only 80K on it.

Your most important thing when dealing with a wet shot system is your fuel pump. How much are you looking to spray?

Nothing drastic, thinking 75hp max since it is a stock motor.

I would go with the Non-Projected BR6EF plug. There are some threads on here about Projected vs. Non-Projected plugs. Just do a search. There is some good info in them.
