Easy to tune for as well via a load table in the MAP the car would never see but on the hose. The nitrous only had to flow through the intake as the injectors supplied my fueling by the spike in fuel pressure at the vacuum port from the shimmed vacuum regulator from those kits.. A single modified dry nozzle can make 325rwhp and never flinch or go lean this way as long as the injector is large enough and the volume is there.
No distribution issues there.

Not sure what you are getting at in the 50 world comment. Explain. I dont think any one here is getting smartass comments. Just here trying to help. You are welcome to toot your horn though.
i wasnt getting at anything just the reason why most use bigger fuel rails but you really dont need to if you have the pump, and i did it on a 5.0 mustang, i had a dry that i changed the noids to pro shot noids and got it to flow 225shot at 140lbs fuel pressure then i ran a wet 400 big shot plate under the eldebrock high rpm upper 58 lbs pressure two gages and a regulator for the wet and the paxton bilet regulator for the dry , i could then turn the 225 back on so i had 3 stages but i never got a run at the track with all three, no roll bar

I know Robert mostly likes dry. I thought about going dry but my car has a nice tune on it and I am at 90% injector duty. I dont want to go bigger injectors to go dry. Then I would need a retune too. Thats why I want to go wet. I have most of the parts sitting around less a plate or dp setup.

I gotcha with the 5.0 comment. It just showed 50 so I was like WTF..LOL

and yea I never saw that much fuel pressure for my 250hp hit. I think it was close to about 90psi with 42lb injectors and an A1000 pump.

Mustang dry kit on an LS1 is my idea for you. You can run the same NA tune and modify tables higher up in the MAP and Spark tables to retard the timing for the nitrous and it never affect the NA tune. Been doing that successfully for quite awhile now actually.
