NOS question....
I've heard the Wet kits are safer than the Dry kits. I'm seconds from buying the dry kit, but not sure if I should.
How much safer is the Wet kit? Please keep in mind I have a HEAVY FOOT, if you know what I mean?
Go for the Dry kit right now, or save up for that Wet kit?

With the wet kit, your are spraying N2O, fuel and O2 into your intake manifold, therefore atomizing the fuel prior to entry into the cylinders (theoretically creating a more even distribution to all cylinders). With the dry kit, you only spray N2O and O2 into the intake manifold, then it's mixed with fuel in the cylinder (via the fuel injectors) and is atomized.
The wet kit relies on your nitrous management system to control the atomization process. The dry kit relies on your fuel injectors to control the atomization process.
Therefore, the wet kit is safer.

WTF? new trannies under warrantee?? My dealership wouldn't even fix/replace my tranny when the differential went out at 67K. And I have a full 100K bumper to bumper warrantee.
