for the past couple days ive been thinking about getting nos but im not too shure what brand and how big of a shot. im only going to use it on the track and only once in a while on the street, so i dont need nothing to big. my cars carburated and i seen the power shot by NOS, is that any good ? its a 125 shot, is that alot or should i go with the super power shot which is 50-150hp ?

I would recomend not going over 100hp shot. I'm not a fan of doing N2O, but the HP is always nice

How will hyper pistons hold up against a 75hp shot?

its all in the tune...

you need plenty of high octane gas, colder spark plugs and pull some timing.

You will be fine with a 100 shot. Pull about 4 degrees of timing. If you have a 5 speed use a window switch or a wot switch. If you have a good ignition sys you can leave the plugs that you are running in. Close the gap about .005. Last but not least make sure you have enough fuel going to that motor.

do it...100 shot is fine but your more comfortable w/ 75 jets for now do that.

i like NOS dry kits and zex dry kits, haven't used any others...the zex is a super fast and easy install.....

I have hyper pistons, and I am only going to spara a 75 shot, but not yet.
I have to let my motor break in.

on my old stock motor I sprayed a 125 shot and my ET was 4 tenths slower than with the 100 shot.
100 shot ET 13.2
125 shot ET 13.6
both mph were 107.

125 shot spun bad in all shifts.

boy does it put a huge smile on your face though.

I think I am going to get a blower though, because I want that power all the time.

wet kits are good for carb.
