To answer the survey, I went thru a bottle in 4 days, but I had just put it on, so I was having fun with it . Now, I spray 4-5 times a week.
i had one of the first CAS twin turbo set ups. it was the first of its kind tho, charlie had the first, and i went to cas, and help make mine, and we changed it a little from charlies, but it was pretty sweet, but not very easy to work on ect, and it wasnt a race kit, i could only make about 600-650 with the parts that the kit had, so i ditched it.
however to this day it was one of the fastest 6 speed FI cars out there

i used 2 use a full bottle up in day. mainly becasue of the night and day difference in the performance on and off the spray in my 4.3L i would do it just 2 do it and then maybe save some for a couple 4.6L stangs and 1.3L dousche rockets.

I pay $75 a fill up here in Cali, ****'s expensive! I hardly ever sprayed when I first hooked up the NOS dry kit, but now, I probably spray half a bottle a month on average, I don't D/D my car or track it. It's there for my entertainment, that's really it. ****, I've used more N20 giving rides then using it for myself.

I would seriously spray EVERY day I drove the car/truck. I'd spray on soccer moms in minivans...

I own my own nitrous fill station and would go through at least a bottle a week.I have the same one as Noyzee but my tanks aren't secured with a bungee cord

I have used up three 10# bottles in one day for my street vehicle.

neither one is necessarily better but the wet kits will be more expensive and reliable, for a dry kit if your spraying like a 75 shot then it would be good but if your gonna go 100 or bigger id def say get a wet kit...basically to sum it up a dry kit injects just nitrous into the motor while a wet kit taps into the fuel system and injects fuel along with nitrous(you add more oxygen you need more fuel)...

Look back a few days to a couple weeks, as there have been two threads on wet vs dry with mucho info. Myself I like dry, but most run wet, even though more $$ it's easier to set-up for most when going past 100/125hp shot.

I used to spray a lot more when I was just bolt-ons. Now, hitting the spray is dangerous on the street as I tend to have, uh, traction "issues" up to about 75mph... I'm also still nursing a 10-bolt and I make pretty good #s N/A.
