It depends, if its a dry system then its just the jet use, i'm not real familiar with the wet systems.. Dry systems arent to bad to install, mount the bottle, switch, run the line, tap the intake.. wet systems are a pain, you've gotta take off your intake manifold. Do a lot of research before playing with n2o. Nitrous Oxide is dangerous if you dont know what your doing.

I believe that a dry setup is when you tap the stock fuel system to fuel to your NO2 setup. Where as a wet setup is where you No2 setup has its own fuel system (decated fuel pump, line...) and is directly connected to a fuel source gas tank or fuel cell.

Bigger bottle just means more time you can squeeze. Bigger jets are the amount of NOS that you are allowing in your motor.

So the 50 shot and 100 shot are just the amount of No2, you are jetting.

with a dry system you are spraying the nitrous oxide into your intake charge, with a wet system it's spraid with along with the fuel and intake making it more evenly distributed.

Fuel system? n2o is sprayed as gas, your fuel is still supplied by the fuel injectors, fuel pump.. the only time you need to change your fuel system around is if your running a large shot that requires more fuel.. just like any other method of f/i.

You right a dry system does just use NO2 but a wet system does have extra fuel jetted along with the NO2.
