optimizeing my dry kit
optimizeing my dry kit looking to get the best preformance out of my dry kit im running a normal 5117 nos kit with the 2 silonoids and the straight nozzels. would dropping the extra silonoid and changeing the nozzels to the 90 degree ones to better hit the mass air help in anyway or should i just stick to what i have.also should i change the filter or blow it out considering i have had run a full 15 lb bottle and never cleaned it?seems like i'm getting less hp out of the system it just doesn't put me back in my seat like it used to.

Honestly man cleaning will help but a dry shot wont really give you that hit your looking for. and if your not carefull you'll blow you r motor if i was you i would take a look at the TNT systems my friend has one on his ws6 and trust me it works it makes that go go juice really go go so...
If you only ran 1 bottle, then that's the problem. As bottle emptys your pressure goes down and then less power. fill it back up and try again. Cleaning after one bottle should not be needed. If you want 300hp outa that kit ley me know I'll tell ya.

This myth has to vanish.
Dry will kick as hard as wet if properly tuned for it.
Keep in mind that a 100 wet is that, 100 rwhp and a 100 dry is 80 rwhp
so shoot enough dry to make 100 rwhp shot and tell me the difference
Going back to the post.
You can run your existing 5177 into a dual stage for shots up to 200, proper tuning required.

i thanks for all who replyed and yes i do have a warmer on it. i know when the bottle emptys im not going to have the power i had with a full bottle but i've heard from a couple people around here that the 2 siliniods are a resriction and that i should drop one. i'm just trying to get this in good shape before the start of the season and i want to run the juice the best i can with no resrictions.bumping it up to a 125 shoot hopefully no tuneing required but i just want everything i can get out of it

My ALL dry shot has cut 1.34 60' times ..... I'd say it hits hard.
Raced all last season on my Dry kit and the motor still looks new.
Maybe you should know a little about something before you post something stupid like that

Like was said, you may just be getting used to it, try some bigger jets? I also agree, dry can hit just as hard as wet, shorten your hose lenght from noid to nozzle and you'll see what I mean, as the longer lines act like a poor mans window switch 9takes longer for hit to be felt/realised. You can try our 400hp Pro noids we use in our dry dual nozzle kit.
