Wet.

On a dry system you need to increase fuel pressure or injector duty cycle to deliver the additional fuel for the nitrous. Well most of us are already near 100% injector duty cycle without nitrous. You would probably run out of injector if you tried a dry kit on stock injectors. If you had larger aftermarket injectors you could probably do it but it would be a royal PITA to tune for.

wet is always better. adds the proper fuel to the mixture for more constant a/f ratios. no lean ut equals much safer for motor. Install an rpm window switch as well. Nitrous is a good thing if doen correctly

Boost and nitrous = easy 4 wheel drifting especially when setup on WOT switch.

Why do you run dry on your cobra and not wet?

I run wet, but I could see a big benefit to dry. IF you have big enough injectors is is a much better way to add fuel than a simple jet in the UICP which will not distribute evenly to each cylinder. You would need the a stanalone or piggyback to do multiple maps, but I don't see any problems with dry when done right.

so on your theory here. If you did spray dry. Not all the nitrous will distribute to each cylinder. This would leave a rich cylinder or two or lean ones. Double edged sword.

For simplicity do wet.
