As long as your car is well maintained, you should be fine spraying. Best kit out there is a matter of opinion. I would say to get a kit that comes with everything you need and is a known high quality brand name. The more common brands are NOS, NX, TNT. I would recommend a wet kit, that way your fuel injectors will not have an addtiional load to handle.

NX does not make dry kits, try NOS or zex for a dry kit. Milage is just a number, the condition how well the motor is taken care of is what really matters. 95k aint **** for an LSx motor, for most that mid life.

NX does not technically make dry kits. However we have three dry kits that we desighned that NX builds for us. So in a way they do.LOL
WE have our single nozzle dry for 349.00.The dual nozzle dry for 400.00 and our favorite,The Halo kit for 499.00.


WE carry our Brand single nozzle wet and the NX single nozzle wet,The NX maff kit and soon our plate kit will be realeased.
Let me know if I can help in any way.
Thanks
Dave

A window switch is needed more on a M6 than an auto in case you miss a shift, so be sure to get one.

Yeah that will be sweet to get some N20 in the LS1. I have never even been in a car when they used nitrous.

MAF kits are wet kits without typical nozzles. They use a machined spray bar incorporated in the Mass Airflow Meter housing.
