Default Suggestions on Nitrous Setup for 408

I am in the process of putting together a 408, pretty streetable, 93 octane at all times, visit the track every now and then, 12 bolt, auto car. What suggestions would you all have for the nitrous setup? I really haven't decided on how much I would like to spray. Probably 150 w/ the option of going up to 300 possibly? I want to utilize the Fast 90 intake, so I want that plumbed also from the very beginning. Thanks guys!

I liked the NX Gemini Twin MAF Kit I had on my 408. If you plan on running a shot larger than 150 you'll probably need a better fuel pump, injectors and you should run higher octane fuel.

I doubt I would ever hardly use the 300 shot, but would like the possibility too...

why not go with a tnt f2 kit, that is my plan for my new n20 setup. then you can run it 2 stage for traction issues.

If you are in your mind probley never going to spray a 300 shot I would look into the NX maff kit or The TNT kit.The direct ports are nice mut require more maintnence,work and money.If you are seriously looking to spray a 300 go ahead and go direct port.I can put something custom together for you and plumb your intake.Let me know if I can help.
Thanks
Dave

I'm all about ease of use, less mainnence, and a little less money. I honestly doubt I would ever spray more than 150-200. Let me know Dave what you would have in mind in way of complete kits.

I'd go with the NX Gemini Twin MAF kit if you don't intend on going over a 200 shot. You can set it up to run a single stage shot or dual staged if you want to go over 200, I had mine set up dual staged on a 300 shot. They are clean kits, fairly easy to install and make good power.

Sounds pretty good. What fuel system would I need to run it?

If you are only going to run up to a 150 shot a Walbro 340(255LTR) intank pump should be fine.

How about injectors? Fuel rail?

The fuel rails will be fine. I assume your car is the 98 in your sig, they had 26.6Lb injectors which can handle a 150 shot but If you intend on going any higher you will want bigger injectors. I've got 40LB SVO injectors but I run a 300 shot and going bigger.
