Default nitrous and longtubes

So im thinking about pulling the trigger on some longtubes pretty soon but also am thinking nitrous in the near future. The problem is i dont know which size of headers to get... ive heard that 1 3/4 is for forced induction but does that also apply to nitrous... also 2.5" or 3" collector.. any help would be appreciated?

what kind of shot do you want? if you want more than a 75 shot i would suggest forging that rotating assembly. as far as ceramic coating. personally i think a header wrap would be better. i have heard some people on here say ceramic is a waist of money. but i have never heard anyone say their ceramic coating didnt do its job. so in reality its up to you.
