my main concern is the timing.
Timing is everything. You never want to hear "Too soon Junior."



















Sorry, couldn't resist.

i think they car could handle a 100 wet shot. but a 75-80 would be no problem with retarded timing and colder plugs. Maybe get a FPR and just dont use it at every light it'll be fine

nitrous WET kit if you are gonna spray at all. I've also wondered about this mod. But to my knowledge wet kit is safer.

You can avoid pulling timing with a small shot (50-75hp) by running some 105 octane unleaded fuel. You won't have any detonation problems.

Nitrous is actually very safe, just need fuel, fuel, fuel. Lean out and you'll have big problems. A window switch is mandatory on a manual transmission car in case you miss a shift and over-rev. Also use a fuel pressure safety switch, if the FP drops, the nitrous shuts off. Running race gas and these two items and you can spray your car for a LONG time. Just don't get greedy with the juice, that's the key (but very hard to do)

A 75 wet shot will allow you to have a good amount of fun on the streets.
