Default which nitrous kit is better?

Considering money is no object, if you had the opportunity to purchase a NXL direct port nitrous kit or a TNT F1 wet kit for your car, which one would you purchase?

Which one would you say is safer?

I know many of the fastest LS1s in the world have used the TNT direct port kit. If I was looking to spray big juice, it would definitely be the route I would go!

This poll was actually meant for someone else that wouldnt believe that a direct port kit is superior to a wet kit.

Wasnt really supposed to be a brand preference.
