So basically, i should get a Wet Kit, and a tune? Dyno tunes in thios city are pricy as ****. only THR is around, and we all know how that goes.

Don't believe all the BS horror stories you hear about dry kits. any shot 100 hp and lower is safe with a dry setup. I've been running a dry 100shot for a few months now and have had no problems,as long as you follow the "nitrous rules" you'll be fine.And also,do you have a bottle heater? you want to be around 900-1100 psi when you spray,for the best results. and also run 92 or higheroctane,to prevent detonation.

Theres nothing wrong with a dry kit. It's just a preference. I like wet kits. They hit harder.
You could break an axle, but probably not on Nitto's. Maybe if you are scared to launch it on the spray, hook up the WOT switch, and don't hit it until you are rolling.

and on a sidenote i tuned my car for a 100whp hit at the wheel DRY no problems..... ill probly go one step up aswell, no lean spikes, no worry about extra parts sticking, or not working.. hell the worst thing that could possibly happen is my nitrious noid doesnt open up for one reason or another and the car just runs super rich.

What do you mean by NO lean spike?

RE: Nitrous
Damn, well my shop is working on getting me an NX plate kit. And a set of Nitto DR's. I'm going to run a 100 hp shot, and one step colder plugs. We're gonna get it on a dyno with an A/F meter, and we're gonna see how that goes. If it needs the tune then one will be done.
Window switch, TPS switch, bottle heater, and electric bottle opener have been ordered.
I know the Nitto DR's arent the best, but I need the life they offer. I cant afford to switch tires every 3 months.
I'm also gonna order the Professional Products TB and Plenum, and within the next 2 weeks some 3.73 gears.
With that said and done, I'll be full bolt-ons + 100 HP N2O+ Tires minus LT headers.
