Default Zex and turbo

I am currently in the process of installing my turbo kit on my ZC CRX. The engine will eventually be swapped for a D series with a built bottom end, once I crack a cylinder wall the internals will be swapped to another D series and so forth. I was toying with the idea of running a small ~30 shot via a Zex kit. I found a good deal on a dry kit, however Im not sure how the DSM 450's will react to the extra fuel pressure. Any ideas? Comments?

would you be adding the nitrous to spool up the turbo and or to cool the intake temps?

That's one good reason to run nitrous and turbo.

Definitely to cool the intake charge, but may to help spooling also, I know the 14b will have some lag, its just a question of how much.

Any ideas on how the 450's will react to the extra pressure? Maybe wet is better? Or direct port?
