All joking aside,

Based on what I know, a wet shot will be safer because of the fuel solenoid adding fuel instead of your injectors. If you add a dry shot on an engine whose injectors are already max'd out or dirty you are headed to boom city. I would be very hesitant to use a kit that is old or not right for the application. If a dirty or old solenoid fails (especially a fuel solenoid) when you are spraying then you are in deep trouble.

Also, in everybody's posts I don't recall seeing any mention of safety switches, like a fuel pressure safety switch, WOT switch, window switch, or anything like that. Controlling when your nitrous sprays is absolutely critical.
I already mentioned switches and whatnot to him...just not in this thread. BUT if he has a dry shot set up, he can use a NEW fuel solenoid to make it a wet shot, just have to look around and figure out how much fuel to shoot. that way IF the used solenoid were to fail, provided he had safety switch, window switch it might not suck as much.
