Is there a site where a newby can get base information on N2O systems and terminology before asking questions?
Thanks in advance.

Yeah I know the title of the thread has the wrong chem notation!

Trying to get up to speed on terms, dry vs wet, whether to go with drilling the intake or with a plate, etc. I have no real knowledge about Nitrous other than the basics on how it increases power, but need to understand the differences in how to deliver it to my engine (stock LS1 in a 2000 C5 coupe 6speed). Thanks.

ls1tech + search. There's a HUGGGE thread on dry vs. wet... and if that doesn't do it for you, Robert56 will convince you that dry is better. :lol
Most of the N2o vendors tag in there a lot too.

Harris Speed Works is a Forum Vendor, give them a call, most full time vendors like HSW will talk to you and not push the sale, they know a potential new buyers will need to ask questions (wet vs dry being one of them). I have personally used HSW, Nitrous Outlet and Dynotune when I was "New" to nitrous and all of them were first rate in answering my questions before the sale. I ended up buying various components from all of em.
