A wet shot is sprayed directly into the manifold through the throttle body or individual nozzles directed athe the chamber with a mixture fuel and nitrous. A dry shot is sprayed in front of the mass air tricking the computer to dump more fuel as it's sprayed.

A typical production vehicle uses oxygen sensors that have a very narrow resolution. When you are cruising / idling (closed loop), the vehicle is concerned with maintaining an A/F ratio of 14.7 (stoich). When you put your foot on the floor and go into power enrichment (open loop), the factory sensors do not have enough resolution to tell you an exact A/F ratio. Any system that ties in to the factory oxygen sensors can only tell you if you are richer or leaner than 14.7. A Wideband setup can tell you exactly what you are running.

i think alan might be referring to the interceptor gauges allen was selling that read a variety of functions
