Question Best used nitrous kit?

I'm going to be looking for a used nitrous kit on here. What brand is best for performance, reliability, and safety? What should I look to pay and what all should be included? Just need something mild like a 100 shot dry kit. Any help would be appreciated.

what are you looking to spend? There are some vendors here that have some pretty decent NEW dry kits that are pretty damn inexpensive these days.

I'm not really sure how much I want to spend. I have a friend who said he'll sell me his NOS 5177 kit for around 400. What do you recommend new? I think I want to stay dry for the safety aspect of it.

There's a kit you can get new for under $400

After looking at that site I'm unsure of wet or dry now? Is dynotune the cheapest? Good?

I have a Dynotune wet kit, no complaints here. Can't beat the factory direct pricing either. How much do you want to run? You could probably run 100-125 dry and up to 150 wet. Just make sure you get a fuel pressure safety switch to shut down the nitrous if your fuel pressure dies. That $40 piece can save your engine. Also, do not attempt to spray without a window switch, especially if you are a manual. That's the minimum I'd run on a nitrous kit, some extra add ons would be a bottle heater and nitrous pressure guage to make sure you are optimizing your setup. You could also get a fuel pressure guage to keep an eye on it. The add ons never stop, purge kits are cool but not necessary, remote bottle openers, all kinds of custom switches, etc. I'd expect to pay a minimum of $500 for a 'safe' kit.
