Default Carb plate to EFI conversion.

Was wondering what would be needed to convert a NOS Super Power shot carb plate system to work with EFI?
The Super Pro shot Noids are supposed to be good for 200hp.
If I understand correctly from lurking here on the boards If I deleted the fuel noid and injected the NO2 upstream of the MAF that would be a dry system where the MAF would compensate for the intake charge of N02 by adding more fuel?
What are the limits of this type of setup at what point can the MAF no longer compensate?
I have expirance using a plate system on a carb setup however I am having a hard time thinking out the concept of the Wet system in a EFI system. Does the Fuel/NOS mixture injected into the intake manifold?
Thats enough questions for now I am sure your responses will generate more questions. Thanks in advance for helping a EFI newbie.

you can use a nozzle and keep it wet if you want pus spray after the maf and b4 the throttle body.

The nozzle would replace the plate correct? In this type of setup with the nozzle injecting the Fuel/NO2 mixture after the MAF but before the throttle body how is the fuel side of the NO2 powered?
I am going to guess that you tap into the fuel rails?
What about fuel pressure is it high enough at the rail not to drop and lean out while having to feed both the fuel noid and 8 hungry injectors?
What about a dedicated fuel system to feed the NO2 system the pump could be wired to come on when the N02 system is armed?
I have a small fuel cell and a Paxton Kamakazie fuel pump and lots of braided fuel line left over from another project that I could you to fab up a dedicated fuel system to feed the NO2 system the pump could be wired to come on when the N02 system is armed am I outsmarting myself here?
What about timing how would you "Tune" the engine to take timing out on the spray are there aftermarket controllers or would I have to buy and learn to use some sort of editing program for my ECU.
Sorry If am rambling but I am still learning the joys of EFI. Once again thank you very much for you time and advice.

Anyone? What I am looking for is what parts would be needed to convert my plate system to a E.F.I setup. I am think dry from my research is the way I want to go. Any sugestions or advice?

For a wet kit, you will a nozzle, a jet pack, 2 hoses, and maybe a nozzle adaptor to hold the nozzle in place.

YES

Injectors not being able to give you enough fuel, maxing out the sensor for fuel enrichment. really only good for around 100 or so with no tuning.

The fuel and nitrous are mixed at the nozzle upon discarge. Then sucked into the intake. This system is installed between the maf and the throttle body.

Ok so If read correctly 100hp is the limit for a dry system with stock injectors and a tune.
If I want to go higher then 100hp dry I will have upgrade my injectors and retune the ECU? Are the injector plug and play will the ECU read that it has bigger injectors or would the ECU have to be reprogramed?
