Default Dry Nitrous

Anyone have any experience running dry nitrous on these 3.7 cars? Car is a '14 auto btw!

Very few so far are trying nitrous on the 3.7. But when I was running it on my 4.0, (and I am thinking of running it with the 3.7) I preferred the wet system with our set up. I prefer to add the fuel needed with the nitrous and not rely upon the injectors to keep up and not allow the car to run lean.

I'm just waiting for the plate system to come out from nitrous outlet to try it on my 2013.

Yea I had heard they were releasing a plate soon. I have ran multiple wet kits before, but with the design of the manifolds on these cars I was worried about fuel puddling.

Personally I dont understand Nitrous unless the car is a 1/4 mile car. Why not go FI and have the power always there where in nitrous has to be refilled. I guess if you dont plan on using it very often it wouldnt be to bad but everyone here knows when we get some more power we want to ALWAYS use it.

I am not knocking anyone using nitrous I am just saying I dont think I would do it.

Nitrous is a track only power adder, you are correct. Cheap way to add power at the track, but refilling the bottle is a PITA.

Yea I would much rather slap a procharger on the car, and hopefully will sometime next year, but as of now I can't afford to spend 5500-6k on a supercharger and tuning. So spray is the next best thing.
