And why one versus the other?

Is one safer for your car?

Do they cost the same?

Thanks,

Did, but they obviously have a bias, don't you think.

I'm looking for folks that have bought either to tell me why I should go with one versus the other.

Thanks.

Wet nitrous can clog up, because of the way it is dispursed. I have been told that these cars are not built for a "wet system".(? key word is "told", so you may want to consult also)

From what I found through numerous inquiries, nobody else has a "dry system" yet, BUT Prowler Pro and he is accomplishing this by adjusting the system somehow, before the mixture is dispursed.

There are companies out there that are trying to figure out how this is accomplished, but have not made it there yet.

I was told by a NOS tech that they have a sytem that will not hurt/damage your engine provided you have a supercharger installed first, then adding nitrous, this to me would be HUGE power, but I haven't really looked into this option yet. I beleive Mike has a s/c-nitrous car (hybrid ?) you may want to ask him.

I am going to get this as soon as I find someone who is offering it at a reasonable price, or Dean's prices come down a bit.

Check out the Prowler Pro add on the main page, he gives a very detailed explanation as to how his system works. From what I understand his car pushes 400 HP, and has several thousand miles on it without any problems. Check out his site and this will give you all the info in his words, so I don't screw anything up.

Hope this helpes a bit, but you may also want to ask your prowler tech what he thinks, I would also be interested in hearing as everybody has different opinions.

Have to add S/C to the wet or dry system?

And why the S/C, seems to me if the engine couldn't handle the nitrous, how could it handle both?

Thanks,

Go to a search engine and type in "nitrous oxide" or "auto nitrous oxide" and check out some of the pages. There is a ton of info you just need to look for it. This way you can get the information YOU want, and then DISIFER it the way you wnat.

I don't think one is better than the other, I have just been told that this cars engine is not mad for a "wet system". So this is what I base my decision on.

I think that they are both just as easy to maintain and install. I have been told by numerous people it can be done in your garage, although I am not up for this. But a local speed shop said 3 hrs. or more depending on how "pretty" you want it to look.

At 70 bucks an hour x 3, 4, 5 hours I will pay to get it done anyday of the week.

Again, maybe ask your prowler tech his opinion on a "wet" vs. "dry" system, and then you can judge from there.

My Prowler tech? Hey, I didn't get one of those when I bought my car....

I'm leaning towards dry based on what I've seen. It seems like cost has been the reason most have gone with wet.

400hp, that's hard to beat with a Prowler. Wonder how I'd ever wipe THAT smile off

I had the same thoughts. Why install one that produces only 50+ more horsepower when the other produces something like 150+ more.

I think it's in the distribution but, I'm not totally sure. Anyone?

I have the same thoughts. Does anyone know why dry produces ALOT more hp?

Thanks,

See my post under the Technical Q&A Forum: http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/000019.html

The dry and wet systems are both capable of making the same horsepower. It's just that the dry is considered safer by some people than the wet system.
