Default Solenoid ???

I have 3 PowerShot N2o solenoids that came with my used kit. I have been told to dump the PowerShots in favor of Cheaters.
Any more input on this?
I understand that 1 n2o noid is for a dry setup, the other 1 is for purge, whats the 3rd for? Right now its set in line 1 before and 1 after the n2o filter(blue case)
Is this on there for safety? That was my guess!

My dry kit had two solenoids, and the instructions showed to connect them to eachother (I guess for safety purposes) The nitrous line coming from the bottle went into the inlet of one solenoid, and the outlet of that solenoid went to the inlet of the second. Between the two solenoids was the blue thing that gets connected to the FPR to raise fuel pressure when spraying. Dunno if that will help...

Thanks, you confirmed what I thought.

I knew it wasn't a wet kit because I would have had a Fuel noid then. It came with 3 n2o's
Still looking for input on the Cheaters vs Powershots!!!

Cool, should I just buy the n2o or fuel? or both?
They are pretty cheap on ebay, about $100 for both!

80 shot

the 16020 solenoids worked fine for me on an 80 shot. when i stepped up to 100 is when they started acting up.

Well, I definitely need a fuel noid to complete the wet kit.
Maybe I will just see what happens with the Powershot noids for n2o.
Thanks everyone for all the input!!!
