Wet or dry?

So, as i mentioned in a earlier post, i was spanked by a vr-4. I want revenge. Or as brian spilner would say.. "I need NAWS"

I have been researching the different kits, and it seems that a wet kit is a better way to go...any opinions.

I was looking at Either ZEX for dry, or NOS express for wet. looking at 100 shot..

ive heard wet is best and zex has the easiest install, but tirous express or venom is the best system, you might fuck your tranny with a 100 shot though...a bit high imo

can u say blown motor. zex has the smart kit that will spray when hits a safe rpm. but a 100 shot would need built(forged) internallz. u run a very high risk of blowing it. at first u will be juice happy. but i would go wih the zex kit.

I was going to get a 3000gt at one point, but when I test drove it I was NOT impressed with the lack of visibility in those cars. I coudn't see shit from in there. Plus it didn't have heated seats :P.

ontopic:

Go with a wet system. if your going to get 100 shot then you will need a bigger fuel pump, and as stated before you'll need to upgrade teh engine internals for shots that big, unless you are doing the 100 shot only once, then it will only hurt the engine a little.

you can run a wet 100 shot on stock internals ALL DAY.. the only problem with big shots of nitrous with our cars is the trans(you will go threw them quick) if you go with a dry shot you will need to upgrade your fuel pump and injectors, so you won't run lean.. GO WITH ZEX !!!

now as for the 3000GT VR-4, i have yet to lose to one, they will get me off the line and i'll go right back passed them. now they ones with the upgrade turbos and heavily modded you will lose to all day long, i'm talking about the stock or BPU ones..

You gotta be shitting me. Another F&F wannabe.

Good luck trying to beat a VR-4. They're not extremely fast stock...But CLs are way slower modded. Pray he's bone stock cause those fuckers can get fast.

This has been discussed like crazy dude it is a common misconception but its really hard to "blow your motor" you will fry various sealants and rings but to actually blow your motor you have to want to blow your motor.

LOL, perhaps I should rephrase that... "During the time that the video was filmed. What were you thinking/doing before and after you raced taht z28?":P How's that?

BPU = I/H/E basically? Is nitrous included in that? I wouldn't think so.

For the love of god, please stop using Supra terms. CLs don't have BPU...nor do CLs have APU. CLs also don't have stage 1, stage 2 bullshit either. kthxbye.
