Default Nitrous ?'s

Ive never dealt with Nitrous before, so I was wondering which is better, dry or wet? and what should I have done to an engine before I start running that so I keep myeslf and the engine safe? Thanks Again.

At the top of this section you will see 2 sticky post. Look at the one called "Frequently asked questions". You will learn a lot.

Instead of opening up that endless debate again (dry or wet), I would suggest doing a search. There is a ton of info on both, so just read up and decide for yourself what best suits your need/goals. There are a lot of systems on the market that will work great on the stock motor, about the only thing you need to change is the spark plugs, go two heat ranges colder and gap them at .035". I would suggest using either NGK TR6's or Autolite 103's for plugs. I would also recommend getting the general safety items like a window switch, fuel pressure safety switch, and blow down tube/cap for the bottle. Nitrous Express sells all of these items, just let me know if you need any part numbers or help.

Yea, I've been collecting info for sometime (mine and others) from both camps, and it would be a good info sticky, to make an informed decission based on ones needs/desires.
