upon reflection, wet kits would tend toward more power than dry in my view due to the better atomization of the enrichment fuel. The problem with dry kits adding the extra fuel at the injector is that our injectors are 2" from the valve. The fuel load per volume of "air" (and nitrous) has to increase substantially to support the added power but the air volume can't hold that much gas in suspension very easily without more room to mix, thus more fuel falls out of suspension and isn't efficiently burned, requiring the ECU to add even more fuel to compensate.

Wet kits have the added fuel atomized and well suspended prior to it ever encountering an injector so the fuel load the injector adds will be more easily contained in suspension and more efficiently burned. More efficiency = more hp.

Debate is open.

 

Where did u see my picture lol?

 

Wet kit makes more power. closed debate.

 

you sent a picture in of you and your cobra when you were crying how bored you were

 

x lbs of nitrous + y lbs of fuel make the same amount of hp PERIOD. It is all about combustion. The fuel will all burn completely weather it is in small droplets or very small droplets. Do you seriously actually think that some fuel does not get burned? Sure...maybe if you are rich beyond belief.

Listen...the two kits types make the same amount of power. Nitrous + fuel = power. If you use a wet kit or a dry kit it does not matter. I am shocked at how some of you are buying into marketing BS. It is science, plain and simple.

 

There is no voodoo involved in nitrous oxide. In effect, using nitrous is no different from using a bigger carburetor, a better manifold, a supercharger, or a turbocharger. Understand that the air you and your engine breathe is made up, at sea level, of 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and just 1% other gases. Nitrous oxide IN2O) is made by simply taking the 2 major components of earth’s atmosphere (in this case 2 molecules of nitrogen and 1 molecule of oxygen) and attaching them together with a chemical bond. When the nitrous oxide goes into your engine the heat of combustion breaks the chemical bond to provide your engine more oxygen with which to burn fuel. More air (better breathing, supercharging, turbocharging, or nitrous) plus more fuel in a denser vapor equals more power.

Having poor atomization will impede results, but most wet systems add fuel no better then your fuel injectors.

If you take a measured amount of fuel and a measured amount of air at a given a/f, you will make a gieven amount of power....wet or dry.

 

Nitrous is the root of all evil. I put it on my car because the devil made me do it. He did he did. And his words were wet kit is da s*** makes more power than god's weeny dry kit.

 

Holy cow here we go again? I guess from now on when i fill my nitrous bottle i better tell the guys at the shop to fill it with the dry nitrous not wet and btw ive been using my dry system for over 6 years, and havent blown anything! My engine has nothing but bolt-ons.

I do recommend anyone using a dry shot to get a dyno tune especially if using a 100 shot and above. i believe besides the way the fuel is delivered between dry and wet, the only other difference maker is tuning a dry system may be abit more difficult for an avereage tuner?

 

Dry systems out dated? Do you realize how long wet systems been around probaly longer then most guys here have had a drivers licence? Technology has come along way and thats why there are dry systems of all kinds.
Its like waterDr says; you get 2 cars being equal same bolt ons (even though that cant even be compared cause some cars just react differently with identical bolt ons) and spray one with a wet system and the other with a dry and there isnt much difference? Ive seen in some cases where the wet sytem puts down more TQ but ive also seen comparisons where the Dry system puts down more HP or vice versa?
