Default Another Nitrous Question... Dry vs. Wet

Another thing I haven't gotten a solid answer for... why would a guy run a dry vs. a wet shot or vise versa? For example I heard a dry is better for S/C rotors and an IC core, if this is true, why? Theres gotta be benefits between one vs. the other...

a "dry" shot is just shooting pure nitrous into the engine, as pertained to a "wet" that shoots nitrous mixed with fuel into the engine(safer).

Wet kit is safer becuase you are adding more fuel with the nitrous....and they are mixing together......better burn.

Dry kit, you have to run more fuel pressure, fuel into the cylinder to compensate for it. typicly cars run lean, and have fuel problems....but all depends on the shot. if it is 50-75..it wont eally harm anything...but above that....you better have a good tune...and take all precautons

By using a wet shot on a L67/L32...the fuel "over time" will eat te coating on the rotors...but it is no different than driving a car 40-50thou miles...the coating will start to come off no matter what. as far as a wet into the intercooler..I imagine(I dont used a A/W intercooler) it will start to carode(sp?)..... but again this is over time..it wont do it over night.

I have had several friends spray a healthy wet shot into the M90 with no problems.
