If using a wet kit IS rich/lean even an issue? I am leaning toward buying a NX MAF-spray wet kit...I am currently running O2 SIMMS and OFF road pipes ...so no real way to use my ATAP...How do you make a wet kit more rich anyway (MAFT)?
I know most of the parts to get already for safety and so on. I guess I'm looking for a little confirmation that this might work! What do you think? Thanks

Why could you not use ATAP with O2 simms and off road pipe? The ATAP can still read your front O2 sensors which is what you want to read.
You can use a MAFT, but you could also change jetting on the Fuel Selenoid to change the A/F of the wet kit..

Re: If using a wet kit IS rich/lean even an issue? Thanks...Now I may be mistaken but on my 2001 T/A there are ONLY 2 o2 sensors not a set in front and back..SO ATAP only sees my o2 SIMMS (not the real voltage reading)..somebody correct me if I'm totally off on this please
Where would these (FRONT) o2's be located on my car?

Re: If using a wet kit IS rich/lean even an issue? That would be the first I've heard of that BIG RAM 1, you should still have 4 O2's. The first two ahead of the cats monitor the engine mixture, the second two, the ones you have your sims connected to, are only to monitor the performance of your cats. If you put sims on the front O2's youd be in big trouble!!!
Anyway yes, even with a wet kit you should still get your mixture right. Although the wet kit will spray fuel with your nitrous, and provided it is set up properly it will spray the proper mixture, if you were lean beforehand you will still be running lean after, just a a higher cylinder pressure and hotter temperatures <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0">
I would advise you to Atap and make sure your mixture is between perfect and a tad rich, wet or dry system.

Re: If using a wet kit IS rich/lean even an issue? You can adjust the mixture rich vs lean by changing out the nozzles.
Running a 150 wet shot threw a code on mine. 100hp shot is fine. Once properly tuned look at a 100shot taking a second off your ET.

Re: If using a wet kit IS rich/lean even an issue? You want to run rich on spray.get a set of maf ends.polished from tbyrne.better throttle responce
better flow. fuel makes all the differance the
right pressure,injectors,pump.Your car craves fuel
on the juice more fuel the faster your car will be
and the better your nos kit will work.I get 1 1/2
second's out of my 150 shot wet.make sure your o2s
read in the 9's.
