Dry! Wet kits scare me on FI cars.

Don't know anything about this really, but can't you get a NOS manifold so you add the NOS and extra fuel AFTER the compressor? Or is that not your concern?

Wet kits will have a Nitrous nozzle and a fuel nozzle somewhere on the intake track. Dry kits will have a nitrous nozzle in the intake track or in the runners (direct port), but they supply the added fuel via the fuel injectors. Dry kits often require a fuel system upgrade since most modified cars don't have an excess capability of fuel delivery. Wet kits are cheaper, but fuel can pool up in the intake track. This is why you see videos of nitrous backfires where the car erupts in flames. Spend the money on a dry kit with a good controller and all the safety micro switches. The peace of mind alone is worth it.

car went 11.58 at 117.4 mph with 1.61 60ft this past wednesday night.. once i learn more with the car launching, i think i can get mid 1.5's and a 11.4's time slip.. not bad for a car that has a race weight of 3820lbs...

also the car picked up 23rwhp and 27tq with the long tube install

And a really good track.

But yeah, that's impressive.

thanks.. well the track wasnt really prep but its a great track.. my tuner looked at my logs and saw that we could get another 200rpms out of my shift points and we are going to lock the converter out in 4th to see if that will pick up my MPH..

Nice run. That MPH is great for the mods listed especially on a automatic car. The ET is also very good for street car with that MPH.
