Dry kits provide only nitrous solenoid with no additional fuel supply = detonation = engine goes boom.
Wet kits provide fuel and nitrous mix

Oh, im sure SEARCH would of helped too

go for a Zex kit. they have both the wet and dry kits available. there dry kit is not an entirely dry kit as it uses some of the bottle pressure to up your fuel pressure at the regulator. and they are affordable.

do as much research as you can about nitrous. in the future you might think of upgrading your clutch and getting a decent aftermarket fuel pump. hth good luck!

right buddy. hey dont completely listen to him. i had my dry kit for like more than a year now and no signs of problems.

for a 50 shot i recommend a dry kit. i got the NOS nitrous system for $550. you can probably find a used kit for less.

dry kits have limitations, it is not recommended to spray above a 75 shot w/ the stock fuel systems. you can upgrade the injectors for a larger shot(w/ hondata to control the larger injectors).

but if you think you are going to want more than 50 shot n2o, than i recommend you get a DP or atleast a wet kit. hope that helps.

Do your homework, be careful. Dry kit is more prone to eating your engine, but a wet kit can be misleading. You run out of fuel due to fuel pump being insufficient or some restriction and all of a sudden your pistons go pop with a near instantaneous lean condition. There have probably been more blown engines due to nitrous than to any other single mod. Is like crack. Easy to get started, instaneous rush, immediately desire for more more more followed by pop-goes-the-weazel...

First thing I would wanna make sure of is that the setup you end up with will not lean out your engine at the wrong time. Either wet ket or small dry kit but always with good fuel delivery based on the amount of nos youre gonna use.
