I would start by saying that the fact that were here to answer your question is a big plus.

Other than that I think you will find noticeable quality difference. But for your personal vehicle, I would need a some more information.

Possible FI?

What motor are you running? Stock bottom end?

What intake manifold? Possible upgrade in the future?

You can also call or Pm me. My name is Graham.

150 is doable just make sure you have a good pump in the tank with a hotwire kit and a timing device to pull timing. I suggest to go with a plate kit no matter what. To me, a nozzle should only be used on a car that no plate is made for. Yes, only spray the car above 3 grand and you can hit it out of the hole. Just hope your rear end lasts.

If you go with NX i suggest to go with their MAF kit, very good kit.

A hotwire kit is a better power setup for your fuel pump. Makes sure you don't have any voltage drop.

You should never spray under 3000 on a fairly stock motor. That being said many people do, including my self on a motor with 240,000+ miles. I spray around 2700-2800 and many people spray well bellow that. I am not telling you that you should spray lower and you may have problems doing so but many people spray bellow the 3000 mark.

Another NOS plate user here. Excellent fit and finish, and hits very nicely. Easy to install as well.
