Default Wet or dry kit?

Next summer I'll be throwing a little hundred shot on the stanger. I've read all the FAQ pages but I can't figure out if I should get a wet or dry kit. Wet sounds safer since it's injecting the correct amount of fuel into the intake. But would I have to worry about fuel puddling? I'm new to this even tho I must of read for nearly 5 hours about this stuff lol. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I run a NOS dry kit, and couldn't be happier. It runs very strong and consistant, and has been totally trouble free.

Both a wet and dry when setup correctly will be equally safe.

Fuel puddling happens when you aren't at a high enough rpm. If you get a kit make sure you purchase a window switch that only activates the nitrous between 3 and 6k rpms, or something along those lines, just not below 3k rpms.

I will be going with a wet kit.

I was planning on gettig a window switch, purge kit, and bottle heater along with the kit. So If I set the window switch up to spray only between 3 and 6200 I won't have to worry about puddling in the intake? That was my big concern of te wet kit.

A window switch set correctly will eliminate the need to worry about puddling. Most people say they have theirs set to 3k-6k. A WOT switch is good to have also but I think those come with the kits.

Yeah the one I'm looking at has the rpm window,tps wot switch, and a too lean/rich shut off so I should have everything I need safety wise right there.

here's the window switch:

kind of a bit pricey i sapose but much cheaper than having one that's not adequate and hurting something.
