I think all NOS systems for LT1s are dry. Unless you want to make a custom wet.

As you may have noticed from the first response to your question, by stating "Nos" you led people to believe that you are only looking at N2O kits sold by "NOS"... the company. Was that your intent?

NOS = Nitrous Oxide Systems Co., a Holley Company

N2O = nitrous oxide, the addictive HP in a bottle....

If it's a small shot,you will be fine with a dry kit or a wet kit.
Dry kits are generally easier to install.

Wet kit is better for tuning the fuel curve.

stik6shift00,

I would any day of the week put up a NOS Pro Race Fogger Kit up to NX wet rail kit assuming that is a comparable system. And what do you mean NOS=PROBLEMS? I have ran both manufactures and there kits with the same repeated results, NOS made more power period over the NX kit! Tunning had nothing to due with it either because three day's where wasted on the dyno trying to find the power loss? We switched kits and power that was missing came back. If you don't want to take my word for it just ask other racers that are using nitrous and I don't mean 100 shot I'm talkin real nitrous use. big hp!

NX to this day fails to fix some of the problems associated with there kits and they know about.

So, anytime you want to test NX power up against my supposed "NOS problem" system I would be more than happy show you first hand how ****ty the NOS systems are.

Randyz96,

If you plan to run a stock motor and this is what it sounds like. Go with the NOS dry kit. I ran this kit on my car for awhile and it was alot of fun. Very easy to install and it's pretty hard to go wrong with this kit. Only real item I would concern my self with is the injectors. If your injectors that your running have miles on them I would invest in a inexspensive set of either Accel or SVO injectors,even if you don't have miles I would still put SVO injectors in. The SVO injectors really are good injectors. What happens is over time the injector can't take the pressure the nitrous kit subjects to them when armed. The injectors lockup and you get a very lean hole! And let me tell ya, Hypereutectic pistons and enought nitrous make piston tops turn into GLASS! You get idea what happens from there.

Go with what makes power and is winning races====NOS!
