Default Update!!! Please look Need help identifying my nitrous set up giant pics!!!!

Ok so when I bought my car I noticed it had nitrous express brand nitrous in it. The dealer really didn't know to much a bout the system. My question is how do I know what I have? If it is a wet or dry system. The car has the bottle a red switch to arm it and a green button on the dead man peddle I'm guessing to use it. Under the hood I have a nitrous solenoid and a fuel solenoid. And on the intake it has a shark nozzle that injects both the nitrous and fuel. Not sure how the system I have works? Does it spray nitrous for as long as I press the green button on the dead peddle? Is there a computer for the nitrous some where? (Searched the car inside and out could not find anything) Any help will be greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok I removed the shark nozzle. I disconected the fuel and n2o lines can someone tell me what size pill I have or which one goes where the first pic says NX 24 and the second pic says NX 41. Or in other words what size shot I'm running???

Check for operation with the motor off to verify that the green button does trigger it. To be safe, pull the two lines from the nozzle (don't lose the jets, also note what writing is on them, so we can tell you what size shot), arm it with the toggle switch, then step on the button. You'll clearly hear the solenoids click, should get fuel out of the one side, and nitrous through the other if the bottle is open. Obviously, be careful with the fuel, don't let it spray on you or anything that could possibly be damaged, cover the end of the line in a rag or something and stick it in a big plastic cup somewhere secure under the hood.

If nothing happens, make sure the key is on, system is armed, step on the green button, and press the throttle all the way down (engine off still). If it fires, then you have a WOT switch somewhere.

If you get nothing, try starting the car and doing it again. If still nothing, have someone hold down the switch and rev the car, ideally using 100% throttle and passing at least 4000 rpms. If you get a response then, there is a window switch.

The fact that there is a push-button switch down there though, tells me that's probably all there is. Arm it and hit the button, with the key on probably, and you should get it working.

Then, make sure the bottle is filled and take it for a ride

Ok so I did what you said above. When I armed it and pushed the green button the nitrous went off, it wouldn't stop shooting nitrous and fuel after I pushed the button I let go of the green button to make it stop but it wouldn't I had to run to the nitrous tank and close the valve and run back in and shut the power to the car.
Is there a certain amount of time it shoots nitrous into my car after I push the button and let go of it???
Or did the green button maybe get stuck or something???

Yeah, something got stuck I would assume. The green button is a momentary switch, right? Not a click on-off switch?

If that happens again, try just flipping the other (red?) switch off, the arming switch.

Also, be very sure you fix that problem before you ever try it on a running motor. It WILL damage something if the nitrous stays on when you let off.

Oh, and assuming the sizing is close to holley numbers, that's a 75 shot.

yeah it's a momentary switch. That's what I thought that it had maybe got stuck. I might just replace the switch to be on the safe side. Would you be able to tell me which pill goes to what??? Nitrous/fuel. Thanks again man!

The larger one is always the nitrous side. For a 100 shot, it's a 46 nitrous with a 30 fuel (holley numbers).
