Default dual nozzle or plate kit

i picked up 7 mph with a NOS wet 100 shot and wanted to up the shot to a 200-250 shot. i was curious if it is better to go with a plate (throttle body spacer) or just Y off the sileniods and run dual nozzles like the TNT nitrous ring. also curious about the NX maf kit. just wondering which kit is better to plug into my existing NOS wet universal kit with the soft 90 degree nozzle.

i'm running a Nitrous express dual nozzle wet setup, a 100hp shot gave me an extra 11mph in the 1/4 mile, dual nozzle setups give better distribution of the nitrous for a little more performance over a single nozzle

I would do a plate over dual nozzles

They will both give the same results. The dual nozzles can be a cheaper route, and the plate a cleaner look. However, many do very trick nozzle set-ups also.

What weighs more 15lbs of bricks or 15lbs of feathers?

A 150 shot is a 150 shot. The differences are cost and appearance. I guess if you wanted to really get down to it, you could look at the length of the lines from the noids to the plate/nozzle to see how hard it would hit.
