Default Does NITROUS need HEADERS

In my 96 formula ws-6

I want to do I a nitrous kit.
Zex dry kit
Probably run a 100 shot

Do I need to do headers first?

Thanks

You don't HAVE to have them, but it is a much better thing to have them than not. It's also not a good idea to be spraying through catalytic converters.

Not to discount white's input, but I run 10.xx on bone stock exhaust. But headers would be a good addition, and I will one day when I find the limit to my car.

Nitrous absolutely LOVES a good exhaust system...The better you make that system the more power you will make on a given shot of N2O....but no they are not required.
