Default new to nitrous have some Q's

I've got a 95 h22a1 and just the simple bplt ons (SEE SIGNATURE). I think my next way to blow money is gonna be a nitrous kit. What kit should I go with? What other kind of **** do I need and should I run a second fuel rail. I already have the AEM fuel rail with the extra port for nitrous. If II do need another fuel rail how do you run that and how big of a shot is safe? My engine has 83k on it and I dont want to rebuiled anything. Please help I dont know the first thing about this ****.

Well since not everyone can afford a turbo kit, i would reccomend looking into getting a single fogger dry system.. Nitrous isnt "ghey" it is another form of adding power to a motor much in the same way a turbo does, just at a fraction of the price as well as with less tuning. I ran an 80 shot nitrous in my 5th gen for 3 years and never had a problem.. I removed the nitrous and decided to go turbo just for a change of pace, but if you really wanted to, and you built right you can generate just as much power with nitrous as you could with a turbo system. I was running 13.8 at 101mph on an 80 shot of nitrous on street tires. With your present set up, you shouldnt have a problem either, but i dont reccomend you start out as high as an 80 shot, in fact i wouldnt reccomend anything higher than a 60 shot dry to start... The dry single fogger is the cheapest kit available, and since it is a simple kit it is a good way to learn all about Nitrous.. but it is not your only option.. (you can also look into a wet kit which is argued by some to be safer..) I perfer dry systems up to an 80 shot.. anything higher i would reccomend a direct port wet kit.. anyhow, hope this helps..

thanks that does help and I think that I want to go with a wet kit any way because my fuel rail has a direct port for a wet kit anyway. I just want to fill the hole

NX single fogger wet kit. That is all. The kit is very nice and puts down good power. All that you will need is colder plugs(NGK-BKR7E) for a 50 shot. Some people get away with running higher shots on just plugs. You don't need a second fuel rail.
