why do people have to be so rude when someone says nos??? you know what the guy means so if you dont have a positive response just dont answer. but from what ive read online its best to spray before the supercharger. i believe Cobalt Addiction has a spacer that you can tap into so you can spray the car.

You can spray before the supercharger and you will beifet form lower AIT numbers and a better mixture. Though you also run the risk of a nitrous backfire going through your superchanger and igniting any fuel that's on the rotors of the eaton. (This is of course of you use a wet kit)

Any idea of how likely that might be?

He wasn't being rude but he was stating a fact. Nitrous Oxide is what he was referring to, NOS is a company.

I haven't heard this happening to anyone as of yet but it's not saying it's impossible.

Im thinking of spraying before the blower. My kit should be here by next week. I got the dry 50 shot per GM's recommendation. Once it's hooked up I'll post some vidz on it.

A dry kit sprays only Nitrous. The nozzel is positioned befor your airflow sensor so when you spray your computer automaticly adds in additional fuel. Dry kits work well for low levels of spray as long as you have enough injector to handle the addiional flow.

A wet kit sprays in both nitrous and fuel with no help from the computer. Nozzels are installed after the MAF so to keep the N2O/Fuel mix correct. Wet kits are generaly "safer" than dry kits at higher levels of spray.

Dry Shot sprays just nitrous oxide into the intake track

Wet Shot sprays nitrous oxide and also fuel as well that you tap from your fuel system to keep a balanced air fuel ratio.

yea so nitrous needs 60lb injectors then or will it not make a difference as long as u don't go above 6 grand? GM reccomends a 55 shot dry w/ stg3 but plenty of people have done/are doing 75 dry shots w/o stg3 and are doing just fine

This is why you should use a wet kit so you don't have to control everything through your computer and injectors.

As I said. go with what your injectors can handle with a dryshot. 42s and a 2.8" pully won't handle a 75 shot as well as a 3". nitrous is like adding airflow and octane. It makes the O2 in the mixture combust better (simplifying I know). But with out the added fuel you will lean out/detonate and kill your motor. If I were to run a dry shot on my system I would drop to a 2.9 at the smallest and run 50-60hp from 3200 to 6800. I still would not feel comfortable with out the added safty of a wet shot.
