I took my 95 gt to the shop to get some new parts, not upgrades. The mustang guy there told me he had a 150 nitrous setup he can sell and install for 700. I asked him do i need upgrades (heads etc) he said no, is this correct? I have future plans for the car and nitrous is on that list. Thanks!!!!

100 shot is fine. 150 shot on old stock head gaskets is pushing it. I think for $700, you are going to get a really crappy nitrous system. A good setup is going to cost you $1000 easy in parts alone.

Yeah, it should be able to be converted down to a 100 shot. Who kind of kit is it? That's the most important thing.

spending a grand on a kit ? might as well buy a Venom kit, I believe it's got chip included or is it a Nitrouse management unit ???

With that kind of money 700 I would get either a Zex or edelbrock kit, new fuel pump, install yourself.

For $700, get gears, pulleys, and an off road mid pipe. That will be power that is always there. Will feel like 100hp in the seat dyno.

If your stang is a daily driver I would suggest a blower over nitrious...otherwise you'll be filling that tank all the damn time

Blowers cost a lot of damn money. You can fill up that bottle a lot of times for the cost of a blower.

Pretty easy to install if you are good at wiring, but very time consuming.
