There is no need for a wet kit since her stock motor can't take advantage of it anyway. Wet kits are for 150HP+ which a stock B16A could not handle for long.
you know a LOT of your shit.. BUT i must say.. i don't fully agree with your nitrous advice..

things i don't agree with...

1. there is more of a differance between kits than JUST the nozzles.. in a lot of cases the valve on the bottle is better on higher end kits, also there can be a HUGE differance in solonoids... SOME cheap kits do just have rebadged good solonoids, but not all... so buying a good kit is a better start as you will get much better quality stuff... and the god kits don't cost that much more

2 IMHO an a/f gauge is completely useless, i got mine before i had a clue.. and i just keep it because of the pretty lights... if you go really rich or lean it will be outside the viewable window on a digital gauge and you will not know whats going on.. an anolog egt will tell you for sure how the cars running...

3. wet kits can be jetted WAY bellow 150... the advantage of a wet kit is more even fuel/nitrous distribution
