Default Dry kit questions?

Okay I put on my zex dry kit about a week ago. And finally just got the bottle filled today. So I took it out on a 100 shot and let it rip It was a very nice difference Id never been in a car on a bottle or used it before so it took my N20 virginity. No theyre wasnt blurrd buildings like fast and furious but it was kool. My questions are is it safe to sprqay in first gear if im comfortable with it and hooking up? Also i dont have a purge yet so can I spray the left over n20 without the car on just with the radio on?

From what I understand it'd be best to take the lid off and spray the left over in the lines.

The purge ios there to vent so that the nitrous will hit harder.
Since you are dry, it is optional.
You are not going to hurt anything by not purging.

Well my nozzle is ran to the underneath of the lid right in fron of the maf. So its kinda hard to pull the lid off and spray it everytime. I mean it shouldnt hurt anything its gonna be evaporated before I turn the car on again. at least id think so.

DON'T spray that excess without the car running.. If you try to restart the car before it has all disipated, chances are you'll mount the manifold to the underside of your hood. Kaboom!

I've only had a nitrous backfire once... luckily it was a small one, but it was enough to throw some coolant all over the floor...

arm the sytem and make a quick WOT run AFTER you close the bottle....it'll only spray nitrous until the lines are empty, if you want.
ahh the wonders of a dry kit

if you want to purge the rest out of the line. close the bottle and then go spray it. or just disconnect the line and it will all come out. BUT DONT NOT SPRAY IT WHILE THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING or BOOM
