need help on deciding nitrous setup my list of mods are in my sig,plan on going with diamond pistons,callies rods,stock crank,all arp hardware....should i run direct port with a vic jr. with sheet metal elbow? stay with the fast intake?,2 stage,single stage,what size shot....i want to keep it reliable and able for everyday use without blowing up...not going to be a drag car...mostly for my own enjoyment...not to impress anybody...any help would be much appreciated, thanks
i am also worried about backfires...i have seen nitrous backfires destroy a whole car...how likely is this?and why does it happen?

id say it all kinda depends on how much you want to spray...
if you can, i dont see any reason not to go with a direct port, but unless youre well over a 200 shot it wouldnt really be necessary, just a little safer and they look cool!!! haha
tell us exactly what youre wanting to do and itll be alot easier to make suggestions on what setup to run.

In my honest opinion, my car has been a royal pain in my *** since I switched over to a single plane. I love the power it makes, but between the cutting, and throttle body I use, my car became alot less streetable.
Also factor in cam selection when deciding wether or not to swap intakes.
You can make plenty of power with the FAST, but I wouldn't recommend spraying more than 200 through the front of it. Another idea would be to do a direct port on the 90. Also look into plates. I used the HSW plate before I switched over to a single plane, and that thing hits like a freight train.

well i would like to do a safe 150 shot all the time and the occasional 250 shot...i don't want to have a backfire and destroy my intake and waste all that money...i would rather give it to a friend that could use it
the vic jr is a nice option as it wont shatter into a million pieces in the event that happened. As for everything else, it will effect driveability and your overall power as well. you will lose low end toque and potential some high end horsepower. I know on my setup we lost down low but came out even up top compared to a ported fast 90. As long as you have a good tune in there, it really doesnt hurt daily driving at all. I noticed very little difference when i switched.
For your particular case i would stay with the fast 90 and run our plate on it. It will fill your needs with what you are looking to spray.

Cold Fusion Fogger with there stand alone kit....Hands down the best stuff on the market and makes stupid power. My car on a 28N/24F tune-up @ 6psi made 724rwhp 903rwtq..made 468rwhp on motor....
My opinion, and take it as a grain of salt, I would stick with a fogger. If you plan to spray a 250hp on it I would deff. go Direct Port. Yes, it may be alot more to change jets. But it will make more power, safer than a plate..Been there, tested that...Dont care what anybody says. Good luck with whatever route you go with...
