Well after much debate im going to keep the roush... i have too much invested and love her too much to see it go. So back to modifying. I am going to throw a shot of nitrous on it for a while before i start digging into the motor. I know this may start a debate but whats the best and safest for my 4.6? wet or dry.. i dont want any backfires. John at alteredspeed told me to get a dry shot to eliminate backfire?? what do you guys recommend. Oh yeah i want a 100 shot. Pm me if you have a kit for sale. thanks

Yeah seeing they are about $1300 brand new.

Wet or Dry you can still have backfires. NOSzle kit is probably one of the safest ways to go, and it is a wet kit i do beleive [patriot]

What about an NX wet kit? I heard those are the best bang for the buck. HP ratings are real, RWHP numbers also.
