Default turbo magazine installs a dry kit?

http://www.turbomagazine.com/tech/04...50z/index.html

ive read here an i thought you absolutely could not run a dry kit on my car??
they ran it all the way up to a 125 shot with a dry kit
if they had ok luck with it i would much rather run a dry kit
i wouldnt put more than a 50 shot on it, rarely use it at all
put a baby bottle behind the passenger seat like a 2lb or somethin
mostly for show and the "oh damn" factor of having nitrous on a car because nobody in my area has anything like it....the girls really love it

You have to run a fuel enrichment module to do so.
Still not as safe as a wet kit, but it can be done.

they didnt run anything on that other than the stock setup?
all the way to a 125 shot

"With Nester Cabrera pulling the dyno runs and Dan Chestnut (head engineer for Edelbrock Nitrous Development) sitting with scan tool in hand, both men sat side by side closely monitoring the engine's vitals to ensure a clean run was made with the 125-hp (50 jet) setup."

"this vehicle has only had the factory exhaust resonator removed to give it a deeper rumble at higher rpm."

"Just because this is a dry manifold kit doesn't mean additional fuel isn't delivered to the engine. Within the passenger kick panel lays the fuel enrichment module sitting just behind the steel support beam. The seven-wire fuel enrichment system is hard wired into the two coolant sensors and two air temp sensors (two go into the ECU and two go into the engine), chassis grounding, 12-volt ignition source and trigger 12 volt (same wire going to the solenoids used as trigger)."

The new wet kits are easier.
The new ZEX kit specifically for 350Z's (part # 82220) comes with the much needed fuel tap and the TPS sensor so it only engages at full throttle. It does not have a purge, gauge or blanket though.
You would also need at least a Window Switch, or some sort of engine managment like the UTEC.
