Default Nitrous ??'s

I am sending my car to get tuned next week and I've decided to get a Nitrous wet kit to install before it goes. I'm fairly knowledeable about most cars, just not my own yet. I have the mods in my sig and will be buying the kit prob. tomorrow or Friday. How big of a shot can I safely go, and what's the best kit? My motor seems strong and has 62,xxx miles on it.

You probably wanna go check out the nitrous forum for answers. As for as the best kit, there's lots of em, check out the sponsors they usually can set you up with a pretty damn good kit for cheap.

You'd be okay with a 100 - 125 shot. I would suggest upgrading the fuel pump if you want to try a 150 shot, and again I don't think you would have any problems with that shot. Make sure you pick up a set of colder plugs and window switch. A bottle heater and fuel pressure safety switch aren't bad ideas either. We are running a special on our wet kits:

Let me know if you have any questions or anything.

Thanks,
Matt
