      I am not really sure what you are looking for. The most common kits are the NX wet(PN: 20920) and NOS dry(PN:05175). You can do a search on dry vs wet, it's been discussed quite a few times. As for modifications, you need free flowing intake and exhaust. Like James will tell you, no size shot is safe, you are always taking a risk. Before you think about it, your car needs to be in great condition. Fuel system, engine, drivetrain, if it is already having any problems, nitrous will just make them much worse. I hate to say it because I hate to hear it, but do a search.

      If you want WOT, you just push the peddal down to the floor. This causes the throttle to become wide open. It's the cheapest and best way to make your car go faster. ;)

                Hey you don't NEED a free flowing intake and exhaust, but it will help. For Nitrous use, you will want a lot of safety equipment.

                Read Up - Search the boards, read books on Nitrous, etc. Read EVERYTHING you can get your hands on. Here is a good guide: N2O Guide... There is also a good book out there. I forget what it is called, but James will know.

                Start with a good kit - For a beginner I would recommend the NOS 5175 kit. Its easy and it's a dry kit (No fuel lines need to be messed with) Most major companies will include a WOT switch (a sefety device) to make sure the nitrous is only activated at Wide Open Throttle.

                Upgrade Your Ignition System - You don't need an MSD ignition or anything, but some good plug wires will help. I recommend the Taylor Spiro Pro wires. They are fairly cheap and very good wires. Then get good plugs. You need to get a Colder Heat Range Plug. I (well the majority of people here) recommend the NGK TR6 plugs, and as james would say... Make sure you gap them to .035. Make sure you do this.. A lot of poeple have trouble simply becuase they didn't set the gap correctly.

                Get Safety Stuff - Make sure your nitrous kit comes with a Fuel Pressure Safety Switch (FPSS). This is a MUST, failure to do this will most likely result in you blowing your motor. You may also want a window Switch, so you don't activate the nitrous below 3000RPMs...

                Any questions.. Just ask! or search...
                Good Luck [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

                  When I got mine from amazon.com, they had a bundle deal on it and another interesting book, "Supercharging, Turbocharging, and Nitrous Oxide Performance Handbook" by Earl and Dianne Perkins-Davis. The two of them made a great introduction to power adders in general.

                    Good suggestion, I have that one also, I'll have to add that to my suggestions (I'll look it over again).

                    Try a search here first, then ask again
