dont get overconfident with a dry kit....better to start off with a smaller shot and work your way up...and intake and exhaust have nothing to do with how the engine reacts to the nitrous oxide, thats why so many prefer or recommend if you must get a nitrous kit to get a wet kit, that way your not just shooting nitrous into the engine, but a mix of fuel and nitrous

everyone ive talked to highly recommends wet over dry

Hate to burst your bubble but the Zex dry kit on a GM motor will blow it up
Once you hit the button, or it hits WOT, (which ever way you set it up) you WILL blow the 2,4,and 6 pistons out of the back of the block. Most likely on the 3rd shot
If you're going to do nitrous on an Alero (or any other GM car) the NX wet kit is better. I've heard of guys using the NOS wet kit on Camaros and 3800 motors.

did you read the system requirements?
Quote:
The system can be used on an engine with stock rods, pistons and crankshaft. However, at power levels of 140 and above, it is recommended that heavy-duty forged components be used.

thats why i would stay away from it
and stlalerodude03 PLEASE proof read your posts, you are giving me a headache.
