i just got my Foxbody to where I want it and it can handle some horsepower without crushing the front like a can. And I want to have a little extra boost to my car. I was thinking about a blower, but I am leaning towards nitrous. I was thinking maybe a 75-100 shot. The car is mildly built. Still has a little B-cam in it, but it sounds fine to me. Why do you suggest for a little shot of nitrous? What kits? I would like to stick with direct port and wet kits.

It has a set of ported gt40 heads with big valves, SSI intake manifold, long tubes, electric fan, B-cam, T-5 high def tranny, new BBK fuel system, and 19 lb injectors.

Don't do nitrous...but I have a little powerdyne kit laying around that would be perfect for your car.

Ive ran a 125 dry shot with no issues. Make sure your supporting hardware is up to snuff

The car can easily handle up to 125 shot. Get a good fuel pump, step down colder in plugs, pull some timing, and let er rip.

Nos has a good dry kit. Ran one for years. Also highly recommend a NX kit(either dry or wet) check out their website. Make sure you run good fuel(91-93) go 1-2 heat ranges colder on plugs and you can run stock timing up to a 100 shot. Pull 2* degrees at 125-150(maybe to be save take out 4 at 150). Buy a purge kit also.

Zex wet kit If this is your first time. NX or NOS all make good kits as well.

However a blower is more tempting to me as bottle refills get old and EXPENSIVE. N2O is addicting and you'll find you hit the switch more often than not.

NOS 5115 kit is the way to go for Mustangs. Nitrous isn't as cheap as it sounds. A good setup is in the $1500 range.
