it can be done yes, but your better off, selling your old 5177 kit, and buying a maf kit.

It comes with better noids, and an electronic TPS switch for a super clean install.

you can probaly sell your 5177 for $400 or so, and pickup a maf kit for 800.

the maf ends alone, are $350 according to the other post around this forum, and that doesn't include the good nx noids, and the electronic tps switch.

Thanks Ryan,
That's what I thought.

I think I'm going to keep the 5177 and run a dual dry/wet systems.

Shoot 100 dry from start up and then a 100 shot wet as soon as I hit 2nd gear.
A little more expensive but I will benefit from a softer launch and go wicked after that.

I thought you could get the MAF kit in a 2 stage?

PREDATOR-Z

you can. But it will be a dual wet single system. I'm thinking dual systems. 1 dry & 1 wet.

Why not just convert your 5177 kit. I run 50 on the first stage and 125 on the second. I see more RWHP this way than others report using no jets
I saw 124 rwhp with 125 shot using the jet charts in the colonels nitrous tips and 145 rwhp on a 150 shot. I saw little peak hp gain when i went to the 175 pills but the HP curve ran much flatter and higher at the high RPM. I beleive many see reduced HP with the 5177 kit because it runs through 2 solenoids insted of 1. If you want to convert your system just run the inlet hose into the blocked off port of the solenoid connector. Then wire the solenoids as 2 seperate systems. I have one on the WOT switch and one on the window switch. That allows you to match to traction. IMHO

Ah yes, I see what u mean. Ingenious, thanks Ray. I think I might give this a shot before going wet.

you will need injectors and tuning to spray that large of a dry shot.

And a bigger fuel pump. Ive been okay doing it with pump gas but im only running 24 degree's of timing

pump is true, but any type of kit with those power levels needs a pump, so i was assuming he either had one, or was going to get one.

I have a Walbro, and I tune with Predator. I ain't worried about gas, premium here is 98 octane
With no jets, I'm at 28* timing with TR6's and no KR.
I'll probably have to go with 26* for the dual stage.

Must be nice 94 is tops for unleaded pump gas here. Unless you buy buy the drum

PREDATOR-Z

Can't u still get race gas at UNICAL 76?? That's where I used to go to, next to the tiny airfield in Toledo during my old racing days at Norwalk.

toledo is a pretty good drive for me, It would be easier to buy the drums.
