I've been thinking about adding a small dry shot to my car as of late and was curious which spray method works better and is easier to tune. I have a racetronix fuel pump and I'm aware I'll need injectors as well as timing puller and window switch. I've been reading up a lot on dry kits and have not seen a solid answer on whether a nozzle placed in the lid a few inches before the maf or a halo system in the lid is better. I'd only hit a 75 or 100 shot max once in a while and would like to have it be as reliable as possible.

Please don't turn this into wet vs dry debate, but feel free to offer any insight.

Anyone?

all i can offer, i have z28 with dry nozzles in the lid. my buddy has a gto with the halo in his airbox. he has ridden in mine and then compared to his, mine hits harder all at once, as where his comes on softer almost progressive feeling. i have dual nozzles, mounted to spray right where the curved piece of the lid turns in to a cicle. about 5 or 6 inches to the maf. his sits right on top the air filter, different cars i know, but overall the halo comes on softer, nozzles all at once hits harder. hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. It think we talked a while ago about your setup. What have you done tune wise for your car? What size shot are you running?

I guess that would make sense because the Halo would do a better job of evenly dispersing the Nitrous as opposed to dual nozzles, which would make the car using the Halo bar feel more like a progressive hit as opposed to the dual nozzle car feeling like a harder hit.

When i bought my dry kit there was no Halo bar. I have the old school NOS 5177 kit (nozzles in the lid), worked great for me for over 7yrs. But with that being said, I vote for you to go with the Halo bar.

As others have said, I think the Halo is the way to go.

Brandon, is the halo easier to tune than a nozzle?

brandon@nitrousoutlet

Well, that depends on what you mean by tune. It certainly will provide better cylinder to cylinder distribution than a nozzle. Are you planning on letting the computer add fuel or are you going to add the fuel via a tune?

I would let the computer add the fuel. I have larger injectors ready for when I would do it. I was just unsure if I had to adjust my tune to spray it or if the maf would pick up the nitrous and adjust accordingly.

If you spray before the MAF the computer should add fuel. I would recommend taking some timing out though.

I would get a timing puller as well as a window switch. Would 42# injectors be enough for my setup?

I would say if you're looking at a max of a 100 shot, they would be good.

I havent gone with anything yet, but I'm pretty much deadset on doing the halo setup.

For a dry setup you really can't go wrong with the Halo!

Brandon, what's the max amount of spray the Halo kit can do?

dustind6327

I'm set on the halo dry kit but I'm still debating if I want to do a wet plate decisions suck!!!!

I think a lot depends on how much you plan to spray in the future? More, I'd lean toward the wet setup. Once you get into bigger shots on a dry setup, you really need a better means of controlling fuel than the stock PCM.

I guess in theory,with a -6AN main feed line and a 4an-3AN race hose from the solenoid to the ring, the Halo can max out a .122 solenoid at 400HP. I wouldn't recommend trying it at those levels though.
