Default Want to upgrade dont know much?

Alright I have a 2000 TA with LS6 intake headers no cat SLP Loudmouth Pro tourqe Converter and a brand new NOS Nozzle Direct port kit that has yet to be installed. Since the NOS injectors mount under the fuel injectors I was considering upgrading the fuel system before instaling the NOS kit. Can anyone pease help me out though and steer me in the right direction with some recomendations as o what exactly I would need.

Thank you

Bigger fuel pump, Walboro 255 and a hot wire kit($250 for both). Theirs alot of stuff in the fuel system just depends on how far you want to take it, but you need a bigger fuel definitaly. Other stuff to consider:

Bigger fuel rails - Add a nice bling also
Boost a pump - Add extra volts to the pump
Bigger injectors - If the ones you have go over 80% duty cycle get a larger set.

What is a hot wire kit? I'm still using the stock fuel injectors so should I look into larger ones?

Some 36 lbers might not hurt if are planning on running a big shot - talk to some of the guys in the nitrous section and see what the are running/ check out their set-ups.
A "hotwire kit" is a plug n play wiring for the fuel pump, they are heavy duty(bigger wire and better metals than the factoy wiring) and usually include a connector for a boost a pump so if you want to use one then you don't have splice the wires. GOOD INVESTMENT. Ordering mine next week from Full Throttle. Their fuel kit w/ walboro pump is a complete drop in, no mods needed to fit and it's only $239 for the hotwire and pump. Hope this helps Nick W.

Your nitrous is a wet shot and will not tax your injectors. Unless you are doing a big heads and cam setup you will not need bigger injectors. A good setup like our stage 1 street kit will get you about 600rwhp.(do not need to purchase the injectors unless you need them) We use the Full Throttle kit as well works very good. $209.99
