yeah, i 2nd gears and exhaust.
gears should be about 500 for teh gears and installation, and maybe another 5+ for exhaust, depends on what you do..

never seen the point in running NOS on a mustang.....


and never will[8D]


for the couple hundred bucks and the constant refilling the money you spend just save it 4 internal work or a better FI system. And for those of you who will try the comment " well refilling doesnt cost me much because my bottle last soo long" BS if your bottle is lasting that long then ur hardly usuing it so you hardly ever have the extra hp y not jus get a better mod where the hp is always there??/

ok.... A better FI system wont get you 500hp for a $15 dollar fill up.

But thats not even the point, talking in a competition sense the 25hp shot will help to cool the intake charge and assist with burning, you will probably see more than 25hp from the shot because of the denser charge.

This is coming from somone that doesnt like to use nitrous though I do know a little helps a lot more then not.


Gears is also a very good choice but the reason why I didnt suggest them is because he is running a 7.5" rear end and those are weak, if he is intent on building this engine eventually he will make too much power for that rear end to handle and it will break all over the place, thats why I didnt mention it, it would be a waste if he destroyed them, he should replace the entire rear end after he hits about 250hp so he can still sell the intact unit.

dentist office, if you buy it from a dealer that is into racing they are going to charge you tons of money. You know that stuff is made out of some chemical interacting with styrafoam, LoL.

And of course if you have a Dentist in your family (Like me) you get it for free, too bad I dont use the stuff.

Just get a wet nitrous kit, its alot safer, make sure to keep it hidden under the plenum and get a sneaky pete bottle to stick under the seat or something, just keep the cops off your *** about it.

I just really wouldnt suggest going over 50 in a V6, 25 is great for most and its still more power than you had before In a GT I think you can do a 100shot just fine without killing it, i am not too sure on the limitations though.
