What is the difference between wet and dry...
is there one that's better for our cars?
which would you prefer/recommend?
I'm a newbie on this subject, so be as elementary on your explanation as possible.

wet...
less likely for you to go boom

a wet kit supplies its own fuel by tapping into the fuel lines
a dry relies on your stock injectors
Your stock injectors can only take so much...
After 3 kits,... NX is the only kit i recommend...

ok kids here we go.. since jason wants pics here are some pics... since my kit isnt installed just yet

this is the whole kit obviously
here is the T-connector although it looks like a "Y" to me.
here are the mounting brackets, nitrous lines and other misc crap like the cool switch although when i get my APC steeeeeeering wheel with the NAWWWWWWWZZZZZz buttons on them i wont need that.. j/k

thats not the t man...lol
Its the fogger nozzle that goes into the elbow that sprays the NAWZ
The T is the part that taps into the fuel line...
Thanx for the pictures... this will help explain future questions that may be asked

But with a wet system, don't you run the risk of fuel pooling up somewhere in the intake, thus going boom?
Yes, with a wet kit you DO have a chance of puddling in the manifold. That's only if you run too much nitrous at too low of an rpm. A direct port kit will keep the fuel from puddling in the manifold because it bypasses the log and sprays directly into the chambers.
Lets say your running a 50 shot. That same shot would act like a 100 shot at 2k rpms vs. 4k rpms because twice the amount of nitrous is entering your chambers per stroke.
jon is right...
This is why you must not go higher than an 80 shot via fogger nozzle...
Anything higher and you must convert to a direct port system
If you puddle the manifold you will more than likely have a nitrous backfire...
If that happens... kiss your maf goodbye
The maf is a highly sensitive sensor... an explosion of that magnitude WILL damage it.
