I think the dry shot is safer.

Wet shot is safer guys. The difference is a wet shot supplies fuel and mixes before the injectors. A dry shot relies on the injectors to come up with the extra fuel. The only problem that rarely occurs is that fuel can pool in the intake manifold, and if for some reason it ignited the intake blows up. I've ran at least 15 bottles on my stang with a 100 wet shot.

Either one is perfectly safe when installed, tuned & used properly.

I'd prefer a wet kit. It'll be cheap insurance incase something whacky like an injector goes bad...

I'd say you can get about 7 good runs out of 1 bottle. It's been a long time since I've hit the button so I can't remember too well.
