Default Is a 25 shot worth it?

I have a 98 Z auto with 88k miles, dyno'd 303 to the tire with lid and LM. It seems nitrous is the cheapest HP to be had. I've been thinking about it for a while and I thought I'd tell my dad(I'm 19 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> ) it was for show. Yeah so an NX kit with purge,window switch, remote opener I should be safe with a baby 25 shot? I pretty much know already that once I spray it I'm gonna up the jets but any input is appreciated <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Just spray a 75-100 shot. You'll have to do something stupid to screw it up.

Take your time and do it right.Use the safety features that are made for the nitrous kits. Put the 75 or 100 shot pills in and have fun.You shouldbe alright.The kit is only desighned to spray from a 35 shot up.The 35 shot is just a tease on a non boosted motor.

Dont even tease yourself with a 25 shot.. First you will try a 25, then a 50, then a 75, then a 100, then a 150, then a 175... Trust Me... I know this from experience only I started with a 75 shot instead of a 25 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
