May I recommend just buying a new kit. That way you know theres nothing really wrong with the used one. NOS could easily mess up your car if something was broken or worn away. So I suggest just buying the NOS, ZEX, or VENOM kits. ZEX is suppose to be really easy to install your self. The others should be easy also. Just follow instructions

i would advise against any NOS products. the kits are junk in my opinion. i like Nitrous Express stuff. i had a NX kit for a year and a half and know alot of people that have nothing but good experiences from NX. NOS kits come with tiny *** solenoids, the same size as NXs purge solenoids. NX kits come with the big solenoids that you normally pay extra for in a NOS kit.

when i sold my wet NX kit a while back, it went for $300.

the cost for a shop to install is going to vary and i dont know.

a 50 shot isnt too much to really worry about, but you could consider getting fuel pump thatll flow a little more. just keep stock ignition timing and check the plugs often to be safe. im assuming you run a stock ecu or maybe a chipped ecu.. either way for what youre doing id say run a wet shot just for reliability reasons.

start calling it nitrous, nawwsss will make you sound 2 fast 2 furious.

good luck.

alright so i can get a wet kit for about 300 and i would need to get a better pump. sounds good. i heard you should set your timing back 1 degree. thanks for all the NITROUS help!
