As with anything there is a right way and a wrong way to doing this. While shoping for what system will fit your needs and budget you have to be careful. There are many companies that like to build there systems as cheap as possible and shy of a few parts in order to target the guy shoping by price and lacking the knowledge to make a educated decision.

Very basic with nitrous can lead to putting a new motor in the car. Nitrous is a wonderful thing when done right. When done wrong its not forgivable. To put a full and safe system on your car plan to spend between 800 to 1000 bare minumum. Other wise start saveing for a new engine.

For your application the most cost affective system that still has all the items needed and top quality I would suggest our Brand X single nozzle system.

For a good windowswitch with TPS activation the NOS unit is great.

You can purchase all the other needed accessories individually or as a package. Here is a link to a package to give you an idea.

I would suggest reading this to understand what all the accessories do.

Keep in mind you will need to change the spark plugs, possibly remove timing and dial in the airfuel.

Knowledge is the key to not falling Victim from someone looking to push parts.

Take some time and read up on things and If I can help answer any tech questions please let me know.

Keep in mind if you are on a tight budget shoping in the used parts for sale section will sometimes lead to some great deals. Just be careful what you buy and feel free to ask me any questions as you come across things.

Ill shoot it to you straight.
Dave

I purchased a used HSW nozzle kit w/o bottle with purge for $120. Got a NO window switch/WOT switch used for $100. Used a bottle I had and some bracket I had... and got a new heater for $60.

I had $280 in a kit that gained 14mph on a 150 shot safely. $500 can get you a NICE quality nozzle kit with good window switch/purge/heater.
