75 shot should be good...

It made a huge difference on my ride and all i had was an intake and exhaust (not a catback) and no cat. I already took it off but going to reinstall a 100 shot but with some fuel up grade. I have a 5 spd hope it doesn't blow.
Any ways if you do it. I heard this from some Supra guys install two NOS solenoids in case one sticks open. They're supposed to stick in close pos. if they go bad, but I've heard many don't. Which means you can kiss engine good buy.
I had an ON/OFF swtch and full throtle switch. I don't trust my self with a press button, but it would be cool to have the buttons on your steering wheel.
Laterz.

Oh I had a wet shot

If you think 75 is too much try a 50. Don't ask me how Auto trany's take the NOS cuz I don't know. But I'm sure someone here should, in case you have an Auto. Man that NOS is no joke it it's hard, you'll have a blast!!!

Try a 50 shot first if you're worried about it. On a mechanically controlled NOS setup (be it a human-controlled switch or a throttle controlled switch), rejetting the NOS is easy.

I love the NOS..

not so much that it was cheap, but it gives so much torque. Witch is GREAT for light to light street racing. You would be very happy with a 50 "shot" that is really all you need. It would be great on a 3rd gen. It would give you the torque that engine needs. It is so nice to pull to a light and you just know that you can hang with the rustang or fireterd next to you. Well, most of the time. HEHE
GO FOR IT

reply to nitrous

jwt makes a nos kit, log on to their site, http://www.jimwolftechnolog.com, and click on the nos and read about it. you could get away with 100shot. UNCLE MAX, i like that animated maxima, how did u do that. i would like that design on a t-shirt. about the nos express bottle, i believe that the bottle had a bad connector. and it exploded in the guys garage, i seen that pic, on the old max bbs,the back quarter pannels blew back like a peeled banana! it was unbelievable. u have to stay with the quality parts, if u want the reliability. i am going to get that kit from jwt as soon as they make a chip for 98's, and then i can get the nitrous chip designed for my car.( i may be waiting awile) but it will be worth it.
