I am not going to promise anything! What type of kit, wet or dry? Just make sure you have plenty of fuel. I run stock internals and I spray a 150 shot it is with wet kit. I have bigger injectors and running two walbro fuel pumps.

Yep you can run it. Get a wet kit. Im sure it will handle 125-150 shot, but be smart start with 50 shot and work your way up. get some colder plugs as well. Call NX or Nitrous Outlet. Im sure they can point you in the right direction.

A dry shot is just nitrous being injected, a wet shot is a mixture of fuel and nitrous injected togather. Wet shots has a fuel solenoid and a nitrous solenoid. The extra fuel that is needed when spraying nitrous is supplied through a solenoid and a jet. With a dry system you only supply nitrous to the engine but the nitrous is directed through the MAF so that your engine's fuel injectors are instructed to supply the additional fuel.

Wet would be the best/safest for your engine, especially since you cant easily upgrade your injectors for more fuel. You probably couldn't spray much of a dry shot if any without maxing out your stock injectors. I would start out with a 75 wet shot and move up from there. Just get the feel of it and step up after a few runs. With a wideband and reduced timing, up to a 150hp shot could easily be used but its always a risk. Just keep the AFR on the rich side and use good gas.

We ran a 150hp wet on my friends 98' with no problems. It also had 200k+ on the ticker.
