DRY DP tuning questions
First off the DP dry will not require individual cylinder tuning and one of the reasons it is so great. A per cylinder tuned DP wet hit will in fact have a greater EGT span than an untuned per cylinder dry DP, end of story. As for injectors, the only problem having big enough for a very large hit was there were none compatible with our stock PCMs (had to run an aftermarket driver box), that has been fixed now, Racetronics has 80lb'ers that work with the stock PCM. Plenty of guys are already running them, just go to the forced induction/N2O section at corvetteforum and you will see tuners doing 160lb'ers and making them work fine, knowledge is power, find someone whom can help (my write up on injector scaling may give some insight). If you don't have a tuner program already, just get the EFI Live Coss 5, but if ya have another there are other options that will work. The Direct Port Dry is the bomb for a killer street/strip set-up no doubt, smart move. Being on the cutting edge you will hear guys saying, this and that, who have never had experience with what your doing, so sometimes we have to weed through the info, but doable it surely is and it's catching on. Good luck and keep us updated as many would like to know how it goes. You can always contact me anytime if I might be able to help somehow, and/or HSW is really on top of the dry stuff also, and where i go for info when I can't figure it out.

Incorrect. robert the difference in cyl has nothing to do with dry or wet but the actual desgin of the system. a little nugget for you . You may need 40 jets to find 8 that actually flow even. hell even the stainless flow different with the same number on them. IF i was doing dry DP ( we have 1) I would definatly want individual cyl correction or have someone flow the kit ot get it perfect. even then minute differences in everything make it still better ot have individual cyl correction.
Remember you have not tried everything either and learn new things every day..... We have a dual dry dp on atv's car with a 375 hit on it.... soon to be 450.
some times you try to be the dry king when you haven't even been fast yet...
we had to take 3 degrees out of #7, 2 out of #8, 1 out of 5 1 out of 3 1 out of 1 and some fuel aqdjustments. just to start.... mainly duel to front fed intake style but theres a few other changes we made.

Edit: I think clarification is needed here. All DPs are flowed correct, that's a given. My contention and what I have been alluding to is this, a flowed wet dp and a flowed dry dp, then check plugs, EGTs, per cyl WB and the dry will have closer a/f and temps, per cyl compared to the wet. that's the point, and it's been proven numerous times. Why is this, well it is the nature of the fuel delivery of the wet hit and mech jetting, maybe fuel pressure variations? something is causing this? Then guys that have only experiance with wet hits belive the dry to vary per cylinder like the wet dp, not true. Even the variation in the wet dp that has been flowed normally causes no addition per cyl tuning that the average guy runs.
