i have been wanting to put a nitrous system in my 1997 chevy s-10 2.2 liter truck. i have cold air intake full length headers and bullet exhaust muffler and tip. One of the questions is dry or wet system. also i need a rev killswitch and electric bottle opener. any information about an application that would fit my truck best would be appreciated. if you can think of anything else i need im open for suggestions.

Wet-Kits: Wet-Nitrous either uses it's own supply of gas or taps a fuel line and injects gasoline via an extra injector solenoid. Wet kits allow for precise fuel metering, but can strain the fuel system if they scavange too much.
Dry-Kits: Dry kits rely on "existing" Fuel sorces to provide the extra gas. Extra gas is acomplished through either increasing the fuel pressure, or having the computer add more fuel. 10 years ago Dry kits normally meant either adding fuel pressure by injecting nitrous into the fuel-pressure regulat vaccum control line or adding it via a computer modification to the ECM. Today "dry kits" typically blow through a Mass Air Flow Meter and rely on it to detect the extra oxygen and provide more gas. Advatanges: Easy to install. Disadvatages, you're asking the fuel system to do something it wasn't designed to do and that can cause problems.
so watever you want and as far as the electric bottle opener make your own tis easy
