What size injectors you running? You have to adjust the "t" jet for larger injectors.

Is it NOS brand?

Explain. WET is not always better. Care to explain why wet is better?

(not flaming here, would just like to know what your reasoning.)

i was under the impression wet is better because it gets injected directly in the fuel, as opposed to having to go through the intake air and risking being distributed unevenly accross the cylinders whereas if its mixed in the fuel it will get mixed in more evenly.

most of the time with a dry shot the computer has to react to the extra o2 in the system. that means you run a few engine cycles VERY lean which is dangerous.
Or in the more expensive systems when the n2o is activated the computer dumps more fuel in (keyword here being MORE EXPENSIVE).

with a *tuned* wet shot you know for sure you have the right amount of fuel in there from the time the n2o hits the cylinder to the time u lift off the gas.

Some people argue though, that with a wet shot if you backfire you blow more **** up;; but any nitrous backfire is BAD mmkay?
I'd go with a nice wet shot over a dry. :D there's my $.02
