How much extra fuel are we talking, after you let of the button how much longer does fuel come out? Because when you let off the button there is still fuel in the line going to the nozzles, and the one that is dripping may be the easier run for the fuel to get to. and since there is no pressure pushing the fuel anymore it can just dribble out.

there is just a some coming out not a bunch but dripping from the nozzle a little but i am afraid to run the kit like that because i don't want to flood the manifold and backfire what do you think.

That's pretty normal. If your really worried about a backfire just shut off the master arm before you let off the throttle or just try and roll off the throttle. My wideband does show my car going pretty rich after I let off with the TNT and I get some nasty pops from unburnt fuel in the exhaust. Alot of times on decel I'll give the throttle acouple of quick snaps and it seems to clean things out, no poping action.

maybe your right i gave tnt a call and they said it just might be the left over fuel in line because it closer to the solenoid.

I think it would be fine, thats why you hear lots of people complain there cars are hard to start after a nitrous run with a wet kit, at the end of the run some fuel still trickels out and kinda fouls out the plugs. After a nitrous run I always clear out the motor with a couple of good revs as I am slowing down to go ahead and burn off that extra fuel.
