I never heard of anyone running a 200 shot on a stock bottom end for these motors. I think the most is a 150 shot and thats pushing it.

I did some googling and I think I'm going to go with a 125 direct port wet kit. Will I still need the fuel upgrades?

I run a 100 dry shot, and it works awesome every time. Please do not run a 200 shot!!! You have to remember nitrous is instant power, and more importantly, instant torque. With a 100 shot i gained over 100 rwhp & 200 rwtq. If you were to gain 100 hp from a blower you might gain 70 ft. lbs. of torque. With that said, you need to be concerned with total power output, not just horsepower.

Both wet and dry are equally good when done right. Both have their ups and downs. With a 125 wet shot your stock fuel system should be fine. With a dry shot you'll need to upgrade the injectors.

So i have a noob N2O ?

What yeilds more hp/tq? dry shot or wet? or do they both put the same amount of power?

And what are the diff between wet vs dry? dry being straight n2o and wet having a mixture of n2o and a fuel additive?
not trying to high jack thread or anything. just fig i would ask for info purposes.

If they're both tuned right, they both will yeild similar #'s. A dry setup requires exta fuel from the injectors (keeping the manifold dry of fuel) and is usually sprayed past the MAF. The cars computer has to sense this to cause the necessay adjustments. A wet setup combines fuel and nitrous at the same time in the upper intake. It does not rely on the injectors like the dry kit.
