wet system - adds fuel and nitrous

dry system - adds nitrous only

I have an ITR, and I was wondering if bolt-ons and nitrous would work well too... I was considering a 75 shot Zex Dry shot... Would wet be better?

Direct-port would be better, but a tad bit more expensive.

For a direct port setup, and to pay to have it ALL done for you, would cost about $2000. This should include most of the parts and labor.

Figure at least
$600 for the kit
$900 for labor
plus misc parts and the like.

To do the direct port setup, you'll need to remove the intake manifold and drill and tap a hole into each runner. Then plumb a nozzle into each one. When done correctly, they look really good, and work good too. I've added about 400HP with a direct injection kit (it was on a BBC).

You can even get tricky and put the ports on the underside of the manifold to hide the injection system. If you're adding more than 50hp, you should get a new/additional fuel pump, as well as a replacement long block so when you blow up the engine....
