Exclamation DRY - WET Conversion

Ok I`m upgrading my NOS Dry kit to a Wet Nitrous system. That way I really won`t have to have the car tuned to run richer all the time to use the 150 shot.
I can just compensate the fuel with the wet kit only when I activate it.
Please correct me if I`m wrong.

For this and If I`m not mistaking all I have to do is ad a Fuel selenoid, an extra 3 feet of hose for the fuel line, a Fogger and the right combination of jets right ?
Feedback please.

Yep, you won't have to run a real rich N/A tune with the wet kit. That's the main reason I converted. If your going with a 150 shot you'll want to consider a fuel pump too.

Basicly all you need is the fuel noid with fittings, -4AN line to go from the rail to the noid, another piece of line to go from the noid to the fogger (depending on the nozzle it should be -3AN, or you can get a -4AN to -3AN line), and the fogger with jets.

You should contact a couple of our nitrous sponsors, I think all of them sell complete conversion kits with everything you need. It would probrably be cheaper to do that than buy everything serperate.

Thanks Man. I saw some form TNT but they are like $ 460.00 Just the conversion !!!! I have a NOS 90º fogger already, so all I`ll need is the noid and some line, and yes I think I will also replace the Fuel Pump.
Thanks for the Info.

Check out Dyno Tune for your solenoid, lines and jets. They actually sell lines that have an -AN fitting on one end and a NPT on the other end so you can screw them directly into the solenoid, that way it will save you from having to buy some fittings. They have all kinds of other neat stuff too, you can spend alot of money quick on their site.

I am assuming that you have the 5177 dry kit, if so NOS now has a wet conversion especialy made for 5177. Or another option is a first stage small dry shot and a second stage full wet kit activated only when you want/need to kick serious but. that way you have the safety factor of the small dry all the time, and big time for the drags, or when you feel the need to arm 2nd stage.

I kept my dry kit on mine because I have my car tuned to pull timing out when the dry sprays. I'm spraying 50 dry and 150 wet. That way I can have my N/A tuned with more timing for max power when not suckin on the bottle.

Use a timing window to pull timing on wet kit activation.
This way you can run on NA tune and timing isn't pulled untill you hit the button and only for that duration.

That is how mine is set up...to pull timing only under spray. I just didn't see the since in adding a timing window since I already had the dry kit hooked up, just left it, T'd off the line and put a TNT power ring in. Works out pretty good....and don't look half bad either.
