Default single or dual nozzle, that is the ?

ok, I'm definetly gettin a dry nitrous kit soon. Still not sure which sponsor I'm gonna go with though. I will tell you I only plan on a 75 shot 95% of the time with the occassional 100 shot for small events. Price is kind of a factor also, thats why I'm undecided. I am not sure for my size a shot weather a single or dual nozzle would give me the same power. What makes one better than the other?? Where do you put a single nozzle kit?? I know the dual goes in both sides of the air lid, just not 100% on the single nozzle location.

the only thing a dual nozzle dry system will do is be more forgiving if you don't have optimal nozzle placement...it will help ensure that the spray is distributed evenly across the MAF wires and give a more accurate reading

I did dual but I did so purely for looks.




Single is certainly cheaper.

Well said.

For your needs, if you place nozzle correctly, a single will be fine for that size (75). What air box? might have the ideal location mapped for it?

Nope, one nozzle would do, as Long as you have a MAF? The shot size is regulated by the jet orifice, but some kits you can take jet out for max hit/hp.

A de-screened MAF won't mess anything up with the nitrous, will it? Thanks

Nope, and when running a dry hit it should allways be removed, as it will ice up and cause blockage.

I purchased a dual nozzle kit because I thought it would be more forgiving on nozzle placement since I'll be doing the install myself. Now if only fed ex would get their sh*t together maybe I could install it and have actual experience to relate to ya
