I remember you trying to sell this kit. what happened?

You are good with this kit up until 50hp nozzle while you are stock. I'd suggest getting colder spark plugs with anything over 35hp nozzle though. And max I'd say 70-75hp nozzle smile.gif

That's the kit you are supposed to get for your car.

Spray up to 50 shot on all stock car.
Spray 50-75 with an Eclipse GST fuel pump and BKR6E's.

Yes, as long as you build your motor for it.

ok thanks, yea i think i posted somthing about it before.I had some ppl offer to buy it from me but i decided to hold onto it. Right now i've got the kit just sitting in my room (un-opened), and im still trying to figure out what i want to do with it. I like the idea of having it but if i ever do decide to sell it this will be the first place i post the sale.

Stick it on the car... nitrous is safer than a turbocharger or supercharger if used properly. Turbochargers create heat, nitrous doesn't. If you make sure all the lines are clamped down well and keep the PSI constant in the bottle with a bottle gauge and bottle heater, then you won't have any problems.

wrong. where does heat come from? from combusting fuel and air. what does turbo do? add more fuel and air. what does nitrous kit do? adds more fuel and air smile.gif

It's less hassle and maintance than turbo, but nothing is safe if you don't know what you are doing with either smile.gif
