just some advice..do a LOT of searching before you get started. There are plentiful amounts of threads in regards to this question in the nitrous section. I have the wet kit and i LOVE it. I always say wetter is better 
no but seriously do your research first becuase the juice can be fun if properly installed and tuned. Look into the things other than what you see in the "kit" that you might need..bigger fuel pump,plugs,window switch,fuel safety switch,etcc. I vote for a wet kit but it just depends on how big you want to go and what your future plans are. Chances are youll want more later so get a good one and dont skimp out the first time. youll thank yourself later, and never be afraid to ask a question about any of the components of the setup you have/want..theres no such thing as a stupid question..ive asked some questions that others probably think im an idiot for asking but youll get your answer and most of the time no one will flame on you for wanting to expand your knowlede. good luck

He's Right.. Wetter is better... I have a buddy who ran a dry system till his ECM didn't quite add enough fuel and he cooked the back two pistons. With a wet system there will be fuel pushed anytime there is NO2 pushed. It's just safer. Wet systems are a little more expensive and a little longer to install but you can go alot higher alot easier. I can't imagine a 300 dry shot... And is it really worth the risk? Are you willing to bet your entire motor that your computer is NEVER WRONG. It only needs one mistake...

Either Wet or Dry will work nicely. Be sure to read up on each type of kit and get an understanding of how the systems work. Each system has trade-offs and the arguement can go on and on. Buy or borrow a scan tool regardless of what kit you get. This will almost assure you that your engine is tuned/running correctly when you spray (a wideband dyno on the spray would be best).
