It's not difficult. Go to the Nitrous section and read all the stickies. make sure you get a window switch, wide open throttle switch and fuel pressure safety switch. 70k miles won't be an issue, so just make sure you get it all set up with safe operation in mind and enjoy!!

Easy to do. A 100-125 shot won't hurt anything.

100hp shot will be fine, but I would do a wet kit rather than a dry kit for a 100hp shot. A 100hp shot with a few bolt ons will be pushing stock injectors. Especially if yours is a 99 or 00 with 26# injectors.

I'd do a wet shot as well. As long as you have a good tune, you should have no problems.

Chances are everything will be ok, but you have to ask yourself if it's worth breaking something. If you do have to replace a motor or trans., etc. is it worth the extra hp. Lots of people do these kinds of mods are devastated when something breaks. No matter what anybody says the equation never changes more power=more problems. I'm not trying to sound like your dad here it's just that I wish someone would have sat me down before I started modding and told me what all comes with the extra speed.

I sprayed my LS6 with a 100 Shot and it went BANG! now 8K later still don't have the new engine done yet. It will be a monster once it's done though.

#1 Rule - If you can't pay, don't spray!

With the correct jetting for a good A/F ratio, there is no reason why that should happen.

Hundred shot, easy.

Just one question, do you like your vagina WET, or DRY?

Go with the wet,...more torque, more power.

You could easily go 150 WET, to 200WET shot, very easily. People do it all day long, on COMPLETELY stock setups. It's all in proper tuning, which is the only mod, other then proper spark plugs, fueling, and being an acomplished driver(smart). RPM activated switch, is highly recommend for manuals, and even automatic's. Seen too many auto's at the track, fail to shift...causing the car to bounce off the rev limiter...


Recommend a custom wet kit, or an easy, TnT F1 system. I have the F2,...which is sick!
