TNT or NOS??
I'm going to play around with nitrous until my new motor is built. I'm looking at 2 kits. The NOS dry kit and the TNT wet kit. I plan on running a 125hp shot to stay safe. I have a couple of buddies that run the NOS kit and they do very well with it. I haven't been in a car with the wet kit. Is there that much of a difference between wet and dry? Please post your experiences.

Damn 125hp on a 100 shot. That sounds good. I've heard that wet hits harder than dry but i didn't know if it did anything for performance. I ran a new best of 11.79 at 115mph in a full weight WS6 A4 with stock gears. I don't see why 10's aren't in my future with nitrous. As long as my tranny stays in one piece.

I have a lt1 with mods in sig na I trap 114 and with the juice not hitting it til 3rd gear I ran 122mph and spun the whole time hence 12.75@122mph lol that was on a 100 shot so with some tires and a new rear that will take it 10.9-11.2 should be obtainable...hey I could always just jet a 125 or 150...also wet kits are safer they dont depend on your injectors to do all the work for fuel.

I ran a NOS 5177 all last year and converted to the TNT power ring set up this spring. I am much happier with the TNT set up. My car ran lean on a dry 125 so I had to add alot of fuel to my N/A tune. With the TNT (or any other wet kit) you can tune it by jetting the fuel at the nozzle. Also, I can say that TNT has great customer service/tech department, I would highly reccomend doing business with them.

i never had that problem except when one time i did activate the dope at 2300 rpms. blamo..nitrous backfire. i think once you are above 3000 rpm, the incoming air is moving fast enough to push the nitrous/fuel mixture through the intake. you can always go with direct port, much safer.

Nothing wrong with a dry kit...you can get whatever HP you want from adry kit if you cover your bases.
As some know...I spray a 300 shot all dry, never had a problem in three years of spraying.
However....I want to see what all the TNT fuss is about. I just bought a TNT kit to use on the second stage. I really like the looks of thier nozzles.
I would not hesitate to go TNT...especially if you just doing a single stage setup.
