I think wets always better, becuase it gives that extra fuel and keeps it more stable. But timing has a big part it stability/reliability. Dry is cheaper, but wet is better. Id say a 50 shot would be fine for a dd.

wet can cause problems if you hit the rev limiter it will keep rev'ing since there is fuel with the nitrous. dry is safer.

I second that. Anything 75 and under a Dry kit will have no problem with.

I would choose dry over wet any day no matter what size shot you want to run (its all about hondata http://www.hondata.com/featuresnitrous.html), id rather have my fuel being sprayed threw my injectors rather than a Fuel solenoid. What if your solenoid took a **** (after your tune) and than all nitrous was being sprayed in with no fuel KA BOOOOOOOOM.

Dry+Hondata=Safe

ditto^^.... If you do go over 75, you could do a wet with a small jet... just in case you start to lean out with the dry.
