    I don't feel like typing so

    Q: What is the difference between a "wet" nitrous kit and a "dry" nitrous kit?
    A: A wet nitrous kit mixes nitrous and enrichment fuel by means of an injector nozzle that is mounted before the throttle body. This mixture is then drawn into the engine through the throttle body and intake manifold. A "dry" nitrous kit injects only nitrous with it’s injector while at the same time, increasing the engine’s fuel rail pressure to feed enrichment fuel through the engine’s own injectors.

    so is one particularly better than the other...or is one safer than the other or maybe better on the engine? or does on have a power perk? i guess what im asking is what are the ups and downs of each?

    Q: What is better, a "wet" or "dry" kit?
    A: It all depends on the application. A "wet" kit is ideal for both normally aspirated applications as well as forced induction applications. It can require a little bit more installation time than a "dry" kit, but is easier to tune if greater than stock HP settings are to be experimented with. A "dry" kit is excellent for normally aspirated combinations that have a return style fuel system. They are very easy to install and are a great "first time" nitrous system. It is not recommended that "dry" systems be used on forced induction engines.

    All it takes is a simple google, you don't have to wait for people to feed you the answers!

    With a dry nitrous kit you can have uneven distribution that can lead to bad situations. This happens because the jet is usualy int he intake. However the wet kits have a more distrubuted spray and are more even.

    Go wet!
