That's not true....and there's differences between a wet and dry kit. Spray a 150 shot on a stock 100hp 4 banger and see if it'll hold. It's decently safe as long as you use the proper safety precautions like a window switch with the right pills and a fuel pressure switch. A lot of people don't know what they're doing...they just bolt-on a dry kit and spray.

I had 100hp kit on my 5.0 Stang. It is a 5-speed and I only had a power switch and a push button activation switch on the shifter t-handle I live on the edge!!
A dry kit is just asking for trouble. A wet kit is the only safe way to go!!!

That sounds like the gross weight...not curb. Your curb is around 5500..

Gross weight is the maximum fully loaded weight. Curb weight is the current weight of the vehicle.
