Default Wet Shot or Dry Shot?

I have decided to go with a 100 shot NX kit, and i am leaning more towards a wet shot because that is what i am seeign the most of. but was trying to get some imput if that is the best choice. what are the advantages of a wet shot what are the disadvantages?, and same with dry shot.

I'd say wet shot for the strip and dry for the streets.

Off topic, but have you ever been to the track and what times have you ran? Thanks.

Oh ok. Did you notice any big difference once you got your JLT CAI? I was reading about it in MM&FF and they said its been proven to reduce .2 seconds of your time in the 1/4, would you agree with that?

nah completely disagree,best CAI for an 99-04 GT on the market because it gives the most rwhp, more rwhp = more hp , more hp= faster track times, so i dotn agree with that at all

wet shot provides for better nos+fuel delivery if you plan to do more than 150 shot. if you're gonna stay below 150 shot, the dry kit will work just as well AND be a little safer (no fuel puddling issues)

Nitrous is nitrous once it enters the combustion chambers, so neither is any safer on the motor than the other.

For a stock motor with bolt-ons, I recommend a dry kit and for a built motor and higher HP jet levels...do the wet.

Well, Code has more clout than I... but I would vote for the wet kit. Disadvantage? You can blow up your weak plastic intake manifold. You could do it with a dry kit too, but it's much more likely to happen with the wet kit if you're not careful. On the other side though, it's spraying the right mix of extra fuel with the nitrous so you don't need to worry about going lean for the first second of spray, or your injectors not being able to keep up.
