1. It will be very easy to install a dry kit, if you are mechanically inclined.

2. I would buy a dynotune single nozzle dry kit. It costs like $289 and is pretty complete. Then you will want a window switch, bottle heater, purge, and plugs.

3. With a dry kit, you want to put the nozzle in the lid or before the maf sensor.
There is an execption though if you buy the HSW interface. Then you can install
the nozzle anywhere you want then you can adjust it accordingly.

awesome thanks for the info..keep it coming,got another question the reason why im running a dry is because of nitrous backfire,because your more likely to blow the car up with the wet kit right??

well with the dry kit since your already a heads/cam car your gonna need to upgrade your injectors. dynotune, hsw, and nitrous outlet all have affordable dry kits and safety accessories that you should get. window switch etc. also i would do a search there is a good informative wet vs dry thread around here. Both wet and dry kits have there advantages and disadvantages.

oh and as far as blowing your motor up. yes you have more of a chance of a backfire with a wet kit, but u can blow your motor up with a dry kit by running lean due to bad nozzle placement or not big enough injectors.

I didn't get a purge kit for my car...if I need to purge the line, I just keep a wrench in my car and loosen the line a little bit...Bam! saved $60! haha

When racing, not having a purge will only affect your first run. So always just consider the first run a "test run" to get the air out of your line. Or when doing a burnout just hit wide open throttle for a split second..done! air purged!

I just saved you $60. So spend that money on a bottle heater. I can't believe you said you "werent interested in a bottle heater". I bet you will change your mind when that bottle pressure starts dropping QUICK after 2 runs

when shooting a dry kit a wideband is a must, and if you have the dynotune air fuel shut down switch you can keep an eye on the actual A/F.

It helps for tuning, and at the track.

Nitrous gauge for the bottle...that's the only thing I didn't like about Dynotune...their kits don't come with gauges
