2k2 Wet Kit Question!?

I bought a NOS dry kit from Furbis112 to put on my 2k2. I mounted the bottle in the trunk, ran the line from the trunk, and mounted the trigger switch. However I was unsure of how to run the solenoids being that the 2k2 is a returnless system and since I believe the fuel pump is in the gas tank.. I called NOS and they indicated that I actually needed the wet kit (they were really generous, stated if I send the parts for my dry kit, they would exchange it for a wet kit) so I send in my stuff and within 2 weeks I had the parts for the wet kit.. Let me remind you I am still learning how this stuff works, but this has the 2 solenoids one for fuel and one for the nitrous, I shouldnt have a problem getting it all together, but I am unsure of how many shots I am actually running, the other kit had little nozzels which were numbered, but this nozzel doesnt seem to have any number on it, the opening is pretty big, but I still am curious, any advise?? Does it sound like we are heading in the right direction?! Any 2k2 with the NOS kit? Any input would be appreciated, SAM

This is a quote from the Holley NOS Site.

The second type of nitrous kit is the "wet" style of kit. These kits include carburetor plate systems and add nitrous and fuel at the same time and place (normally 3-4" ahead of the throttle body for fuel injected applications or just under the carb as with plate systems). This type of system will make the upper intake wet with fuel. These systems are best used with intakes designed for wet flow and turbo/supercharged applications. The reason for this is the fact that fuel flows differently than air or nitrous. This difference in flow characteristics can lead to distribution problems and, in some cases, intake backfires. Intakes designed for wet flow (such as with carburetors) cause much less separation of the nitrous/air, and fuel. Because modern fuel injection intakes are designed to flow air only, they have tighter turns and a more compact design as a result. Thus, they generally do not make good candidates for wet flow nitrous systems.
