hey im looking for some guidance here for my 99 GSR. . . everyone keeps telling me to turbo my car but i cant afford that anytime school with me going to school and everything. but i can afford NOS. so i wanted to know what i would need and how much of a shot of NOS i should put in without blowing up the engine up messing anything serioulsy up. please help me out here. im just looking for some guidance at the moment. im guessing that im running 14.8-14.9 at the track with intake and headers. im just looking to break into the 13's.

I would go with a 50 shot to be safe, but it alone will probably not get you into the 13's. Tires, intake, exhaust, fuel will help.

I would go with the wet system, that way you know you've got the fuel you need. Those are all good products.

who has a good wet system ? also do you think its a good idea to change the fuel system; ex: fuel rail, fuel pressure regulator, fuel filter and fuel injectors? and if so who should i go with when doing this? thanks for the help

I know NOS makes it, I think ZEX makes it, you really don't need major modifications for a 50 shot, the stock rail and injectors are fine, if anything, get a pressure regulator and maybe a fuel pump, then you'll be ready for boost later.

NOS isn't as cheap as you might think though. Yeah the kit is only 500-600, but the Nitrous is not cheap. Are you ready to spend 40-50 a week on refills?
