Default Switching from wet to dry?

I have a compucar wet kit and want to make it a dry kit so i can hide it easily. Can I use the the old wet nozzle and just cap off the gas inlet and can I use a NOS jet in a compucar nozzle? Also are blow down tubes universal? TIA

i dont know what the jeting would be with the compucar nozzle you should wide band
a/f to make sure you arent runing lean with a 100 shot i
have a dry kit from nos and it has 2 sprayers to mix the
shot up with the air evenly befor it gets read by the mass air i have seen a dry kit with one nozzle blow up my friends motor i think it was becaus the air and nitrous werent mixed enough befor the mass air and it dident get an accurate reading of the dense air you have to get the nozzle as far before the mass as possible with one nozzle
hope this helps

i just converted my compucar lt1 wet kit to work as a dry on my ls1. i pulled the whole brass piece out of the throttle body plate, and stuck it in the TSP lid about 2 inches to the side of the neck of the lid. i made sure the little holes in the spray bar were pointed toward the neck. i think it will atomize the n20 very well since the 6 holes act as little nozzles and spread it evenly. i lost my 50hp(size43) jet and have a size 35 jet(supposed to be a fuel jet) in at the moment. i can barely feel it. need tranny and timing tuner before i can use the 100 jet. i have the other spraybar thats for fuel still in the tb plate, maybe i should stick it on the other side of the lid and tee it off like the nos 5177 kit. i think compucar jets are different than others and may not work in other nozzles but im not sure on that. kev
