I have a 2002 2.4L and how safe is a wet nitrous kit using 35, 50hp jets. I was told that you would be fine just dont engage it under 3000rpm. I want to go this route but cant afford a rebuild if it blows. How often does a nitrous backfire occur or puddling. Also, where do you tap into the fuel line, I was told the schraeder valve but I'm not sure where it is?
Thanks
ill handle this one, even though i know almost nothing about nitrous....check the faq stickies

^^^ you just wasted a post....
id say 35 would be fine stock.... but before id do 50 id do fuel upgrades....
some have even gone to 100 shot without feul upgrades. some people just increase the feul jet.
ive ran 35, 50, and 75 shot in my 2.4 no problems

WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats classic JBO!!!!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!!
You will be fine. You could really run a dry 50 shot if you wanted but I agree with your thinking of going with a wet kit. I wouldn't personally ever expect a car to last with adding power but not fuel. 75 shot is really pushing it, so I wouldn't do it personally. I know others that have. If you do a 75 shot and CANT risk it blowing, I would say retard the timing 2 degrees with either HPT or a DIS2.
I sprayed a 50 wet shot for about a year, engaging from a dead stop, not caring if I was at 3K or not. With that small of a shot, I can't see it really mattering. Its not really a 50 shot anyway....more of a 42 shot when it comes down to it.
Definately get some tr6 plugs too! They function at 2 steps colder than stock plugs!
