ZPut the bottle where your spare tire is. There is a rubber plug that you can cut open to run the braided line all the way into the engine. Then put the nozzle in front of the maf and your done. Hardest part is not using it and zip tie the line

If you say NOS in the n2o section you might get flamed. For some reason they don't like it. Happen to me so just trying to help a brother out...

its simple and not too time consuming.just be for warned its like crack.
but all in all not bad to install.would upgrade fuel pump for added saftey,even though im still running a 125rwhp dry shot with br7ef plugs and every thing is going good on stock tune but deff check your plugs, so far i have run 30 ten pound bottles with good sucess

id go with a walbro 255lph pump as for injectors you should not not need them unless its a dry kit.wet kits make up for the needed fule buy the sielonoid. dry you need to spray before the maf and the computer adjusts fuel curves acordingly but there is a limit and you would be better off with a tune and injectors dependent on the size shot you run

fuel pump yes, you should get a tune for all out saftey but it will have to be up to your best judgment.i would deff buy some NGK br7ef plugs and gap them at .035.it made a world of differance on my car. idk every one says you need this and that to do any thing,i think most of it is for saftey reasons. but like i said im spraying a 125rwhp dry shot on stock fueling and tune and i have done 150rwhp wet on my car i just preffer a dry kit cause its more of a kick in the pants.my heads are currently off my motor for no reason realy and every thing looks great i was expecting to find chiped pistons or any signs of abuse but it all looks good and i have 130k on my motor.all i can say is use your best judgment and listen to your motor,read your plugs and put the for mentioned plugs in otherwise you will chase stupid gremlins like i did.
