Nitrous doesn't puddle fuel does,thats why a dry shot would be safer. Our intakes are meant to run air through them not fuel. The technology of foggers is getting better so you can get away with a wet shot,but a dry is still safer at low levels. You get more punch out of a wet shot though,where a dry comes on more gradual.

The jets atomize the fuel and nitrous so well that on a small shot there should be very little chance of puddling. The one advantage of our plastic intakes is that they will be very smooth inside which should help even more. Your also activating nitrous above 3krpm (or higher for the larger shots) so there is a lot of airflow to pull it into the cylinders. I can't think of any intakes (on modern vehicles) that were factory designed to have fuel running through them and there are a lot of cars running wet systems with no issues. Biggest problem is overzealous use of nitrous and/or improperly tuned engines. Not sure about the more punch from a wet shot vs dry...I've had both and they both hit the same way
