Yes Harris is one of the best nitrous kits available for our cars both in quality of parts and customer service. #1 in my book as well as many others. You will not be disappointed one bit.


They are very popular company and their kits are awesome.

Just get it on the dyno for fine tuning before going nuts with it. Mine was very lean with the recommended jetting. Seems to be normal for these kits from various people I've spoken with.

I wired a few of these kits in they are pretty dumb proof if you can read and understand. Make sure you get a bottle heater.

You'll be more than happy! Yes, you'll need new plugs. Depending on shot size, current mods, etc will dictate which ones to go with. You'll also want to pull any timing that has been advanced in the tune and depending on the shot size, you might have to pull some additional timing on top of it.

Shoot me a PM and we can discuss your build further.

I answer all sorts of questions Its easier on our system since we can keep everything in 1 area while trouble shooting. Nothing is worse than getting a PM 2 weeks from now from someone I was helping only to realize I deleted the PM trail. But yes, absolutely, if you have questions just shoot me a PM. lol just shoot me a reminder of what we discussed if its a few weeks from now on a followup PM.

I will do my best to answer them! If I can't I'll ask my wife...she teaches 5th graders and since they know everything at that age, so does she.

Thanks, man! To be honest, I'm not a big fan of the website based tech system. I'd prefer to just call, but whenever I do they always tell me to punch a trouble ticket on the site.

Or just stay on the line and as soon as someone is free they'll grab it.

Definetly a good idea, I had to step up 5 jet sizes on 100 shot to get the a/f right. Wound up with a .033 instead of the .028.
