How much nitrous?
How much nitrous? Im planning on getting a nitrous kit for my car. My question is how big can I go with my setup. I have a crane 230/232 @600" 110* LSA, Long tube headers, true duals, 4.10's and boltons. Everything else is stock and I havent had it tuned yet. Should I wait till I get the nitrous to tune it and how much can I spray before I blow something up? Also should I get a dry or wet kit? I am a nitrous newb.
i'd wait to get tuned untill you have the n20 up and running.a fuel pump might be a good idea before you get tuned also.those 4.10s will make you have to shift very quickly on the jug also.

If you're going to stay on the small end of shots (<=100 shot) then there's nothing inherently wrong with a dry shot.
Most people end up getting addicted to the hit and end up going with a wet shot so they can spray bigger.
If you're spraying a dry shot, then typically 28lb injectors will handle up to ~425rwhp. Then your injectors will run out of capacity to deliver fuel. So if your car is putting down 375 to the wheels NA, then you can typically add a 50 shot with relative safety.
A fuel pump is something you'll want to invest in, regardless of whether you're spraying wet or dry, if you're putting down any more than 450ish rwhp.
A wet kit is typically easier to tune AF ratios, can handle bigger shots more reliably, but requires a few extra things to work properly.
A dry kit is typically cheaper, simpler, and easier to hide. It's typically also harder to shoot a bigger shot with them, because you need to upgrade the injectors if you get big on the power.

Most people just upgrade the fuel pump and spray wet with a H/C car, but I like my dry kit, because it's what was on the car and it's simple.
I also never intend to spray more than 75/100 with heads and cam. I also had the tuner rework my fuel mapping for the 36# SVO fuel injectors when I did my heads and cam.
I believe the '01 and '02s came with the 28lbers. You'll know how much you can spray safely when you get it dynotuned.
I wouldn't spray it until you get it tuned. There's really no way of knowing for sure if you're getting enough fuel without a dynotune with wideband AF.
