I know poop when it comes to nitrous I have only worked on N/A motors and a few turbo cars. I was just telling you all what he told me. From what I have seen of his setup he was running a 100hp shot which is how the shop installed it and dyno tuned it for, with a window switch which from what he said is suppost to only start spraying NO2 at a set RPM at WOT, then shut it off at another set RPM (wire spliced in to one that comes from the Throttle Position Sensor to tell when he is at WOT, and hooked to the ignition to tell RPM, is what he said), he had no purge kit and no bottle heater, he had this kit for 3 years and no problems. I have no idea what his bottle pressure was at, and he said that he dident bypass the window switch. I do think that he did something to it (possibly swap out the 100hp jets for higher ones without swaping the fuel ones to match, which he did once before). We went to get our cars dynoed with a bunch of friends and on his first sprayed run the shop doing the dyno run (and that installed the kit) cut the run way short saying that it was running to lean and that it could harm the car, so they checked the jets and it turns out he was tring to better his 502.4 rwhp by installing alot higher nitrous jets according to the shop owner, they installed the 100hp shot jets and the car ran fine and dident run lean. So that is what I figured happened at the track is that he was tired of running mid 11's and wanted to go faster, and dident jet it correctly.
I only knew two people with wet nitrous kits on there cars on is this guy and the other was a douch who dident know squat and hooked it up himself, and it blew on him the first time he hit it. Most of the people that I know that have dry nitrous kits only run 50 - 75 hp shots and a few run 100 hp shots and one runs a 150 hp shot of dry nitrous on his Cobra. Personally I would think that a wet kit would be better (thinking about getting one so I looked into it a little bit) by the way that it is set up.
