Default nitrous

Thinkin of nitrous and was wondering what systems you guys like. Probably go with a mild 50-75 shot just to keep it safe.

Well if you wanna keep it safe go with a wet kit. Don't think you can go mild because it will cost less because it won't! The only thing you will save is the refill on the bottle! Dry kits are junk and you can blow your motor up or scortch a piston so much easier! All reality a used wet kit with all parts will run you roughly $450. I would also run a window switch to prevent nitrous being injected when you hit your rev limitor which will blow your motor 9 times outta 10

+1 on the wet kit and if you are going to do it you might as well do a 100 shot. it is safe with a good tune

Ya I was leaning towards a wet kit too for that reason. I figured a small shot was still goin to be fun while not killin the car and filling the bottle constantly. Wasn't sure what brand to go with though

NX, TNT, ZEX, NOS, etc... are the most common name brands. I went with NX

Other brands like harris racing, nitrous works, compu-car, etc........ all make kits for your car.

If I forgot someone, then I'm sorry.

I went with 100 shot and bought NX wet kit(plate style). I have a digital window switch I got from Jegs for $102/ No need for bottle heater unless you run the strip or plan on doing 150 shot or more! Chances of running twice within ten minutes are slim. Also with a 10lb bottle at 100shot you will get six 1/4mile runs! I am using 100wet shot with no tune and tr6 plugs gapped at .030! I run 93 premium
