get a zex dry or nx wet kit. i'm not sure if zex makes a dry kit for your car. if not, just get an nx wet kit. the zex wet will do fine as well though.

you'll want to invest in a bottle heater as well.

to keep the psi up around 900, otherwise you won't get the full potential out of your shots.

i say to get a dry kit cause you can probably do it yourself fairly easy.

i like dry for 2 reasons.

easy install, and IMO safer app

the intake wasn't made to flow fuel, so if your spraying fuel through it , it puddles, and can sooner or later (although small chance of it) ignite. wet guys swear wet is more consistent though.

the facst are so much different than most think.

there is no difference in how the HP is achieved by nitrous,turbo, or blower they all pack o2 into the motor. turbos and blowers do it constantly and nitrous is "on demand"

nitrous just does it chemically, 2 parts nitrogen and 1 part oxygen, once it reaches the combustion chamber it splits , the bonus is that as it is delivered it is EXTREMELY cold, to add an additional cooling factor.

check out the NOS site, go to http://www/holley.com and go through the links to NOS , there is a little bit of info on there.

window switch takes away the chance of puddling. dry shot is counting on your injectors to deliver the extra fuel, easier to go lean.

wet shot with window switch is safest imo.
