Need help deciding what kind of nitrous setup? Im a newbie when it comes to nitrous, local dragstrip shut down and not sure if is opening back up so if i travel, i want to make it count. I have a 2000 trans am, rgr stg 2 heads, comp 228/228 .588.588 113 cam, ls6 intake, z06 maf. 6speed. Looking for a cheap setup that i can use a couple of times until motor is replaced. Any help would be appreciated. -Jake

How much are you looking at spraying?
How do you plan on tuning for it?
You really can't go wrong with the plate systems from Nitrous Outlet. Best fit and finish of any put together kit on the market. Look into their vehicle specific kits
If you want a "cheap" 100 horse power, I'd look into their Brand X nozzle kit. Complete for less than $350.

The thing I would like to recommend is to make sure you get the safety features.
Fuel Pressure safety switch, Nitrous Filter, Window switch. Those three items save 90% of the problems you will see with nitrous.
Reasonably, you can have a nice safe Brand X system:

nice, safe, and complete system brand new for about 800$ including the window switch. These two parts will get you started then add a window switch.

If you're wanting to only spray 150, and don't EVER plan on spraying more, then the BrandX kit would probably be ok. Pretty much all hardware in nitrous kits are the same. They either, work or they don't.
I don't know for sure, but I'm guessing the BrandX solenoids have a .063 orifice which would probably be good for a 150 hit. If you EVER plan on spraying more, then you might as well step up to their Nitrous Outlet kit with their bigger solenoids and not have to buy them again.
Either way, if you decided to purchase a kit from them, the hardware will be good to go. What you really need to focus on is how you're going to tune it i.e. pulling timing and getting a good air/fuel ratio.

This biggest issue with small cheap systems, is that they basically wont go over 150hp. So they are ok for now, but you basically replace the entire system if you ever want more or want a nicer looking system like a plate.

Its a better system no doubt. Just have to see what fits the goal and budget. Just let me know if you have any questions.
