NOS questions
I already know turbo would be better because it never needs to be refilled.
Nitrous is a bit cheaper. I estimate a nice system and a progressive controller might be had for under 2 grand. Maybe under a 1000 if I go with a DynoTune system and forgo the controller for a while.
Question #1 Dry or wet?
Dry nitrous is 100% N2o spray, bike is mapped to add fuel in the T-bodies via increased injector volume.
Wet Nitrus is N20 that sprays premixed with proper proportion of fuel.
Pro/Con: Dry system v wet installed to the 2008 ZX-14?
(many more questions to come.)

Depends on how much power you'd like to add. If you just want a little extra punch, the simplicity of a dry system is great.

Get with gix1300r over on psychobike. I paid 650 for a complete dry nitrous kit with his spray bar a 2.5lb bottle and an NOS mini controller with all lines and fittings. Installed it my self and had it tuned was still under 1000

I am running a gix 1300 spraybar on my 14R attached to a dynotune kit with 3AN steel braided lines. I do not use it often, but when I do its pretty awesome! Wet is safer because your dumping fuel with the NOS, as opposed to dry.
Cliff I think you’re a talented guy who has a "finesse” for getting the sponsors to give you stuff. Please stop shoving your sponsors down our throat ;-) Unfortunately Muzzy is not what it used to be.... Brock is the new muzzy so to speak..

I just call em as I see em brother - tried and true for the world to see......Muzzy builds great products for your 14 and the dyno proved it, or Daddy wouldn't be using them.

Yeah, Brock. Sold a friend some oil additive and oil that Brock claims is worth 14hp on the dyno. Oh yeah, he mentioned he oiled the chain also.

hey there 1BAD! Thanks for vid.
Hi there Seno. Thanks for explanaition. Wet is safer because your dumping fuel with the NOS, as opposed to dry.
Wet is gonna cost more. Is there any other advantage/disadvantage to a wet NOS other than safety?
and Hi rest of you guys. Thanks for responses.
krexken: "Depends on how much power you'd like to add. If you just want a little extra punch, the simplicity of a dry system is great."
So how much are we talking here? Is 50hp still in the "little extra punch" zone. One of my goals is to avoid upgrades after I have the thing installed so I don't want to go too small. Of course I want to keep the cost under about a thousand.

I'm not too sure on the 14 but i'd bet 50hp would be safe. I've a friend that's been spraying about double that for a long time on his 12, dry. Now if you could buy one device that would retard timing, start the nos by tps or rpm, stop it by rpm to keep from hitting the limiter, ramp it up smoothly so you could spray in first gear and alter your map when nos is armed and you'd be all set. Don't know if such a single device exists though. I'm kinda behind the times on all the latest gadgetry.

Just get a dry system and use your PC5 to flash a second 'richer map' when you're on juice - it's proven to be incredibly simple, bulletproof and without a doubt, the biggest bang you'll ever get for the buck!

who said he had a PC5
wet kit with a 5lb fuel pressure sensor .no 2nd mapping required and if the fuel not 5lbs then no spray .. bulletproof when you rule peoples out

IMO, don't mess around with any FI bike without fuel & ignition control......Otherwise, just leave it alone.

I believe a 50 shot would satisfy my curiosity. An 80-100 shot would provide a nice learning curve margin for me but if 80 is too much risk on a dry system, I'm better off scaling back.

yes, I have a PC5 in for 3 years now. The NOS map would work for me if I go with a dry system.

...5lb must be WOT? sounds logical. I'm sure you could easily install a switch to disable NOS if you wanted WOT natural aspiration. I'm liking the intricacy of this wet system but I believe it is going to cost a bit more than I will be able to spend. If I go with a wet system, i'll take your recommendation, 1bad. (BTW, Kruz is under the impression that you owe him a lunch.)

Question #2 Spray bar or fog?
It seems to me a spray bar has to be much more precise and efficient than fog. However, spray bars look like they would obstruct natural aspiration, hanging over / inside the bellmouths the way they do. Will my bike still run as strong naturally aspirated as it always did....or is the spray bar going to create poor flow for Natural Aspiration?

Most spray bars work fine, the trick is to get the juice to the cylinder as quickly as possible - never as fast as the added fuel via a controller, which fires the fuel instantly from the injectors - to compensate, we 'ramp up' the fuel a bit to match the exponentual n2o hit, works great.

thanks 1bad, Looks like a wet kit can be had for less than I thought.
That Ebay system is way more hp than I even want to try. Looks like +150 ponies is the lowest boost on that one. I ned to start a little smaller than that. ...or if I only use one half of that kit, that would be + 75-300 hp, no? I could see starting with +75 hp. Might be about all I ever use.
Are you willing to nurse me through the install?

I can see how a spray bar system would be a lot more effective than the wholesale approach of blasting the spray in the airbox. I'm sure a spray bar is essential for wet nitrous and definitely best for dry. However, I will be running NA most of the time. I don't want to detract from my NA performance to have a nitrous system I use only on rare occasions.
Does the spray bar obstruct the flow of air from the ram air system?

sure .1st thing to do is call cold fusion and put a kit together .. whatever hp you want they will sell you the fuel and N20 jets for the set-up . tell them you looking for a all steel line 4 cylinder wet kit.. but don't use their fuel pump just go to a local parts house and get 1

No! We demonstrated that fact 'posted dyno results for your review in the HT build thread' here on 14.com......It's 2013 brother not 1999, FI motors work just fine with today's simple and inexpensive dry shot n2o systems that allow added fuel via a PC5 controller. Besides you can't intro more than a 60hp shot on your 14 (that's about 45rwhp) without motor work, or you'll fuck it up.....Forget the wet plumbing it's a pain in the ass and completely unnecessary.
