This may be stupid but can you take a Wet NO2 system disconnect the fuel solenoid, change jets, and move the nozzle and make it work? I am sure it wont work but i don't know why

That is not good as the nitrous does not have the same oxygen content as air so the MAF would get a false reading. The engine will run lean and probably selfdestruct.

but isnt that how a dry system works? The MAF would pick up the extra O2 and ingect the proper amount of fuel. No?
