Ok, before people who haven't run either type of nitrous system start bashing the "dry" kits...
There are significant advantages to each _depending upon the application_.
Take a long-runner manifold that you will typically find in a late model Mustang, for instance. While wet kits can be set up to work with these, the dry kits are MUCH safer. Injecting fuel into an upper manifold that was _never_ designed for it can cause problems such as "puddling" in the intake. What happens here is you do not get the proper fuel mix and if you ever have a backfire...bye-bye intake manifold (and probably your hood as well).
I ran a 125hp dry kit on my '96 Cobra I had. Did this for 2 years with no problems. With this jetting it gave me 104rwhp/144rwtq. Very nice gain and it was extremely safe.
That being said, with these trucks we don't have the long runners or funny looking upper intake plenums to worry about. But, there is no real "trick" to getting a dry kit to work and be efficient. It simply spikes the fuel pressure at the rail, so the injectors can now deliver more fuel than they do under normal conditions.
I'm not in the market for a kit for my truck right now, so I can't say _for sure_ which one I'd run.
