Default Any negative side effects of a direct port system? Other than $...

I was just wondering why there are so many more people using a wet N2O system, rather than a direct port system. Is it because of the price, or is there something else that people don't like about direct port nitrous?

You need to keep things extremely clean and run a good fuel filter. The fuel jets are normally in the .010-.014 range.

Price is a huge issue it cost more than double to do some direct ports.
No benifits to the average nitrous user.
No need if you are spraying under 200hp/
Big pain is the *** to set up cleanly.


Now if you are spraying over 200hp and do not mind not having the car running for a couple of weeks(or purchasing another intake so that does not happen) the direct port is a wonderful thing. Individual cylinder tuning if need be, big horse power possiblity, and that ever all import WOW factor.
