Default 2 stages, 1 10lbs bottle?

I want to use my zex dry 100 shot for the first stage and run a brand x wet 100 shot for the second stage, Can this be done with one 10 pound bottle? Can I just y the main feed to the 2 noids and be fine?

dude it's not ideal but it will work with a y-fitting before the noids.

I would suggest just getting another bottle

Sure you can no problem till you get bigger and there are way to minimize restrictions and that is the problem-accumulative restrictions. I can go into some of the fixes if you would to hear about them. i am running 3-stges off of one 4an line, so it can be done successively. A single 4an line can support a 400hp shot under perfect conditions and everytime we add a 90° fitting a filter and so on the max it can support goes down, but there are things we can do to help.

Just split it and you'll be fine. I would recommend at least running a -6 and then split it if you aren't running it already.

I have a -4 main feed line adn im only going to be running a 200 shot. 100 dry from the zex kit and 100 wet for the second stage. What would be the best way of doing this on a budget? When should I spray the second kit? Wich kit should be the first stage, Wet or dry? The only unpgrades to my fuel system are walbro 255 and svo 30# injectors.

Just use a "Y" fitting and 3an or 4an line to each kit from your 4an supply line. If your using a "Y' fitting that must have fitting installed, back cutting of the fittings is a good idea. This means bevel cutting the fitting like the pic below. just htink how the flow slows down when it hits the protrusion of the fitting thick ness. back cutting allows the nitrous to be funneled and produces a "Venturi Effect", which will speed the flow up rather than slow it down.

Default 2 stage

I was also thinking of doing the same except dual dry. i'm thinking 50 rwhp hit in 1st gear for traction then an additional 75-100 rwhp hit as a 2nd stage. I also have a 10lbs. bottle and a 4an main line which I think should be ok.

As far as solenoids go most companies have small and large nitrous solenoids, what would be ideal? 2 small solenoids, 1 small (1st stage) & 1 large (2nd stage), or 2 larger solenoids?

Will be getting HSW's Microedge but was hoping their Microedge II would be out by now??
