On the super ram, people have had distribution problems with single fogger systems. Basically, the only safe wet system for the SR intake is direct port. Direct port systems are not cheap, even if you build them yourself. You'll spend north of $1000 pretty quick before it's ready to spray for the first time.

You could probably use a dry system, but I'm not familiar enough with the SR application to know what, if any, issues you will encounter going that route.

Good luck!

I really don't see why a regular dry kit with the correct fuel pressure regulator wouldn't work. Does the SR use the normal rail mounted regulator, or is the regulator external?

I belive PeteK has used a NOS kit# 5051 with no problems. I asked this question awhile back when I "thought" about running it. The puddle issue scares me to death tho.
