How many people have every replaced a MAF because it was broken?
What about a FPR?

Ya.... dry is so unsafe....


Cams is 100% correct. Both work. Both work well. Let no one tell you any different.

And if you dont understand basic nitrous setups and tuning you should prolly not advise others... Just a thought.

one in a million hey..... sounds like you work for the government, it happends... but in the little STICKY here what it does not talk about is if you detonate, this same exact explosion not only can but more than likely will happen. Durring detonation the fire will back travel into the intake lighting you oh so combustable mixture. Not all detonation will cost you a new motor. but if it lights you nos in the intake, it will for sure cost you somthing. Just because you run a nos setup does not mean its the best or the safest. Deal with it. I still like the wet myself "AS I SAID" but being asinine to the facts is setting you self up for another guy on here saying, "I dont get what heppend, i did everything right, why do i have to buy a motor now, nos sucks." To me nos blowers, turbos and so on are like football teams, every guy know what team is the best, and who is going to win. "Just pick your team and yell at the home games" either way you will hit a button and a smile with be forced on your face, maybe followed up by a long night crying into your pillow but, never the less, you will have smilled.

Well it is up to you my friend. You have plenty of opinions from what I see, and all good points. Lucky this didn't turn into a wet/dry sucks, looks like you got some good advice on both aspects. Good luck with your decision and have fun when you HIT THE KIT!!!!!!!!

WOW !!!

Dubbletruble .... what are you on dude? must be some good ****. LOL
Nitrous is not flamable just so you know.

Dry works very good, I have had a dry shot on my car in many different ways for a long time now.

Here is a video of my car 4 years ago ... a hidden all DRY set up and factory computer....

wow..... i feel dumber just be responding to this one. What do you think is being sprayed into an intake on a wet kit. NOS and............ oh yea fuel...... fuel is flammable. Fuel and NOS is explosive. What do you think people are talking about when they say "I think it puddled in the intake" it sure isnt a liquid gas doin it. all nittrous does oi over oxigenate the cells in fuel, fuel can only carry so many oxigen particals on its own before eather A: turning into a gas. or B: just flat out rejecting them. This is the cause of unburnt fuel. NOS is a chemical reaction changing the ability of fuel to carry way more oxigen molecueles in efect causes a compleat burn of all fuel. So...... yea..... i guess what i am on would be "sicence"

This was pulled again by the sticky for the Nitrous info.


Q: Is nitrous oxide flammable?
A: No. Nitrous Oxide by itself is non-flammable. However, the oxygen present in nitrous oxide causes combustion of fuel to take place more rapidly.

Don't you people read first .
