What does the text of your message have to do with s-afc?

Might help if you listed your car.

Seems like the basic question is "Would I need more fuel if I ran a 50 shot of N2O?" Well would you be running a dry or wet shot and what kind of car do you have?

First there is nothing wrong with running nitrous on a rotary. It has been done for years. I have done it to my 86 TII and my 91 vert with no ill effects, and that is because it was done correctly. I only recommend the wet systems because it adds fuel with the nitrous. You would only need the AFC if you installed larger injectors, or if you just wanted to do some tuning to it, but it isn't needed to run nitrous.

nitrous kits are around $500-600 right?, how much does the refill cost? I can't imagine wasting tons of money on refills, because you knnow everytime you race someone and you are going to use the boost just so you can keep up with them or beat them even worse than you would with out the nos. Wouldn't a turbo or supercharger be a better investment for your car?

No idea how much the kit costs ... But I agree with you. I dont like the idea that you run out.
