Cool >>Need help Picking out Kit<< thanks

I have a 02z, automatic with full exhaust and 3.73 gears.. Im looking at purchasing ported heads and cam with a 3600 stall... My question is could someone help suggest a Nitrous kit that would work for me.. I dont need anything fancy of expensive, but i want a good reliable and safe system.. I dont know which is really better or safer >wet, or dry.. But if someone could help me find one for around 500 or so that would be great.. thanks for reading this and all your help...

The first step is going to be figuring out what size shot you want to run. That will be a large determining factor on which way you want to go wet vs. dry, especially considering you're on a budget.

Take a look at our single nozzle wet kit. When teamed up with the All-Out accessory package, its a pretty tough combo to beat in price and safety especially with the MicroEDGE controller!

If you have any specific questions please feel free to ask. Thanks!

Nitrous outlet has a fall special going on right now with some great deals on kits that would have everything you need.

You will need to get a used kit if you want it safe with only $500. For a new kit expect it to run about $800- $1000. If you can't install it yourself labor will run between $500-$1000.

If this is your daily driver, I would stick around 100 to 150 to be on the safe side. Thanks.

i would only run a plate or ring system (like my TNT) ive had bad luck with nozzles turning in the past and plates/rings just make things simpler and they look cleaner as well AND if you ever decide to go back to stock you dont have holes in you induction system.

i know want a system to handle 150 shot, but i still dont know what the safer, wet of dry? I was looking around and couldnt understand the difference between brands and the different options available with each system.. I say the plate systems which look good since you dont need to put any holes into your intake, but what do i know.. i have decided that $750-$800 is more of a realistic number for a kit with everything i need for the average joe and none of the HP extra's for a serious track car... who has the best deals going on...
