Most also go with nitrous. It is a safe power adder if you get a proper dynotune......

They are not very hard to install at all if you have some mech. knowledge. All the kits are about the same as far as performance. It's mostly tapping into power, tps, and adding the fuel line on your shrader valve on the fuel rail. I have an rpm window switch so it takes the guesswork out of when it's going to kick on/off.

Just get a good tune......

A good dynotuner takes away almost all of the risks. You just don't want to run lean on the juice......

You will also need 1 step colder plugs on a 75 shot......
