You can get 150hp out of either kit, you just have to jet for it. Pick your poison, dry is a little cheaper generally. What dry kit do you have? I can give the jet size for 100rwhp if ya want. Also what car and mods?

stock just a k&n intake system and exhaust i have the edelbock system,and its going on a 98 z28 i believe it has 28.5 injectors i was told that if i used 150 i was going to need more fuel pressure so i needed to change the fuel pump only,that the injectors could hold 150 shot.just curious is 150 shot of nos 150 hp
Not sure if Edelbrock rates at crank or rw (sorry Vic and crew). Pump is a good idea, however, it isn't pressure so much as volume. 28lb injectors should be finr for your hit, but should log to make sure.

Yup, like Robert said log your injector duty cycle if you do go with a dry kit. It's the only way to know for 100% if you need larger injectors or not. The fuel pump is a real good idea too; take a look at the Racetronix kits. They are an easy "plug and play" system. More info:

but do you guys know the hp diference on dry and wet and if i can what size jet do i need to get for a 150 shot.I dont wanna have to buy the wet conversion kit if i dont have to,like i said i already have the dry kit but its not installed yet untill i make up my mind between dry or wet,if i get the same amount of hp on dry or wet then ill just stay with the dry so that i dont have to spend extra money.thanks
Some kits rate at the crank and some at rear wheels, so there is aprox a 15% difference with the crank hp being the lesser of the two. we need to know how Edelbrock rates their kits. But the answer is, yes, a dry can be jetted to the same rear wheel horse power as a wet kit. there are variables between kits/cars, and the only real way to know for sure is to jet on a dyno to your hp you want. with that said if you can find how edelbrock rates I can get you in the ballpark and give you the math to figure what you want.

The dry kit can give the same amount of HP with the right pills.However it will not get the torque or as good of performance shot for shot that a wet kit will.
If you do not have the money to do the swap just run what you have.That way when you do get the money for the swap and convert you can see the knight and day difference.LOL
You normally come out better selling your dry set up and starting over with a quality NX kit.
