Default dry/wet a4 car rwhp???

first off, are there jets for a 150dry shot?
if i was to run 150 wet or dry, which kit would put more rwhp? i was always thinking of doing a wet shot, but i like the 5177 kit and it looks pretty simple to bolt on. still havent decided wet or dry but im gonna keep doing my homework.

i think you will see more rwtq with a wet than a dry from what i have read on the two . its a personal prefrence for the most part either way its fun as hell to feel the rush

No dry kit will give you a 150 shot as far as I'm aware. You'll max out your injectors, but that doesn't mean you can't get higher flowing injectors and larger jets for you 5177. If you go dry you won't have to be as concerned with pulling timing though.

I got dry and had troubles with the maf picking it up. Now I have 500.00 dry kit that I have to spend another 150 to convert to wet. I'll never put dry on again. I also maxed my injectors out at 418 rwhp. In stead of getting bigger injectors I'm going to convert to wet so I'm good for 500 hp then.

Dry can be jetted to 150, and is safer, easier, affordable. Take some site info with a grain of salt. Do some reading and then choose if you want dry/wet and then more specific questions can be answered. I have run 5177 upto 200hp and some have taken it to 300hp.

well....i would love to say that i will cam a full bolt on h/c car, but to be more serious, i dont think ill have heads for a good amount of time. so it would only be a cam car. but i know i want a 150shot. just have no clue which to pick and why it would be best for me. thats why im leaning towards 5177.

I would go with Nitro Dave's halo kit if you wanna go dry. If you want 150 (like me), change the injectors and the fuel pump and get colder plugs NGK TR6s.

If you're looking for that kind ofr horsepower and above It's time to step up to a wet kit. I personally don't ever like to see dry shots over 100HP
