i have a header, getting a new racing cam. and made a cold/ram air for it. muffler, no power steering and no air con. what kind should i get? the only kind i can find is for a 4 barrel, mine is a 2 barrel. or should i get one for an EFI? but i have a carb, and no fuel pressure.

For your application, you need the wet kit (for carbs).
No more than a 40 shot is recomended at this point.
How many miles do you have?

Please go to my site and read all you can about Nitrous, it could be a dangerous toy for your engine if your not well educated on it.

i have an A20 engine and i want to drop some nos up in my car....i have chosen ZEX...aka purple haze because it is a wet system that has been recommended to me. before i unleash nos into my engine...my car has 155,000 miles on it and i am want to run more than a 40 shot....should i rebuild my engine with new stock parts????? or try to find performance engine parts??? i was told either way, the new parts would be destroyed.....what is your imput???? thanks

zex = trash (tying to get that damn computer box with all them inputs to work can be a real bitch)
building own kit or prefabbed = better plus cheaper
you need 1 tank (the number of tanks is really optional), two high powered solenoids, 10ft of nitrous line, wiring kit, toggle and microswitch and fuel pressure safety switch (optional), fogger nozzle, fuel line T, extra fuel hose and fittings, and of course the included relay. (this is wet.....definely the way to go)
40 shot can be handled all day long just go a little extra on the fuel pill to keep cylinder temps down.
80 shot needs stout rods, forged pistons, strong rings and head gaskets to be everyday reliable
