I believe when done at appropriate levels based on your setup, plenty of fuel and good plugs you will have lots of fun. I like wet kits myself, but for a shot that small and you wanting to hide your setup, go with a single nozzle dry kit. Can be hidden VERY easily, and give you a good kick in the pants while being super safe. Dry kit will only have one line...the nitrous line,because it sprays only nitrous and relies on the PCM to richen the mixture. A wet kit sprays both fuel and nitrous simultaneously requiring two solenoids and lines. Call Nitro Dave, he's a super nice guy and he will have about the cheapest kits you can buy. Good Luck, I think you want regret it at all.

You want dry if you want it to not be very noticable. I believe 125 is the highest shot you wanna do with a dry kit and stock fuel injectors. Be sure to get a window switch and colder plugs like NGK TR6's. Also a fuel pressure switch will ensure that the nitrous will be killed if fuel PSI drops. IMO nitrous is very safe when used right. You will love the feeling of it as well.

they say 125 is the limit for dry with stock fuel system. With larger injectors and pump, you could go larger. 150 can be done stock if you go wet.

Your rear end will by fine. You wont spray on the launch, if you use a window switch you can activate the nitrous on and off at certain rpms. 125 dry should be safe, just read the stickies at the top of the page. it is always SUGGESTED to get a fuel pump, or some sort of upgrade to your fuel system. but many many people have done without with no problems. But I would suggest a better fuel pump

My fav's are Dyno Tune Nitrous, Nitrous Outlet and Harris Speed Works. Out of fairness there is Cold Fusion and NOS distributors here as well.

the question shouldnt be if or not to spray...the question should be...how much should i spray. You'll love it...trust me. stay on a 100 shot untill your ready to start upgrading..injectors, fuel pump, etc. than as you become more familier with everything, move on up.
contact Matt@hsw and he'll personally talk to you and figure out what your goals are and provide you a great system that will meet your needs at a great price. goodluck to ya and happy spraying!!

Rear end is not very strong to begin with even on a stock platform.

Do a search, buy a kit, try it and let us know what happens. Should be the same result as everyone else who wants to spray a puny shot.

Go with a wet system so you dont have to worry about jetting and can install it yourself easier....ive heard 125 was max for a dry shot also. IMO dry seems like it would just be annoying....if you plan on upgrading ever(which you probably will, like anything else you get bored with it) get a wet shot with Racetronix pump....

A wet or dry system will work for a 100 shot. I personally prefer the wet systems are more user freindly in the fact that you do not have to worry about upgrading the injectors when going to a larger shot. You can also adjust the airfuel with out having any computer tunning knowledge like you will with the dry system.

However the wet system will cost alittle more to put together correctly. To keep the cost affordable I would suggest a single nozzle wet system. Window switch, fuel pressure safety switch,bottle heater,nitrous pressure gauge, purge and spark plugs.
