I have a Borla adjustable catback for sale if your interested.

Also, be careful to know what you want as far as stuff goes, cause if you decide to do headers or something, but then want a turbo, thats just a waste of the money. Just something to think about...

Can you be a little more specific? and how can I use NOS to where it won't damage my engine?

for a 100 shot to 150 shot, just upgrade injectors, 1 step colder plugs. the important thing is get a good nos kit with all the bells and whistles, including WOT switch, RPM acivation switch, bottle warmer.

for anything over 150.

1. forged bottom end with steel top ring on pistions.
2. Bigger fuel Injectors
3. colder plugs.
4. TUNE!!!!!

just some of the things you need to consider but not all. with big nitrous shots you definetly want to have a strong bottom end and supporting mods, but with nos there is also the potential for engine damage especially on piston number 7 for LS engines which is where failures usually occure.

what are your real goals? I saw you posted about trying to buy a z28 with a 150 shot about a month or so ago, and you were not being completly truthful about the purchase or the car then. is what you are really asking truthfully in your budget? and do you even have the technical expertise to build this type of motor, because labor is super expensive.
