I'm working on a 88 5.0 HO in a 1985 RX7.


here's the kit in question:
Nitrous Oxide Systems (NOS) 05122NOS - NOS Sport Compact Nitrous Oxide Systems - summitracing.com

Summit says that it's a dry kit. any advantages or disadvantages to either wet or dry? Also says that it comes with small jets. Is that the only real difference between this model and a kit that was made for a 5.0? Could I just jet bigger, 100 or so, and use this kit?

Ive been told a dry kit can work up to 100 hp. Personally I would run a wet kit reguardless. But yes it can work with swapping out the jets.

Sell it and put the money towards a wet kit.

Just buy the "wet" part of the kit. Nozzle, Solenoid, lines and fittings, and wire it up.

I wasen't talking about people on the internet. I am talking about people that I know. The wet kits are from personal experience....
