Well, I'd try and have it tuned like that, if it goes lean, you'll need to do injectors and calibrated MAF, if it's stock most likely it will be fine, you should be able to adjust it to flow enough fuel, but you never know-every combo is different and especially if you're doing a good H/C/I combo-you'll probably need to upgrade injectors.

I should mention that the stock pump is fine for a stock engine, if you add heads and such then you should get a pump first anyways.

for a new "user" the dry kit is definately the way to go! not much you can really mess up and is stock engine friendly. up to a 100 shot you don't need anything but the kit, after that as mentioned by most every one else you will need to upgrade your fuel pump. you shouldn't need to have it tuned to run a 150 shot, just buy a good fuel pressure gauge and watch for fuel pressure drops. The smaller kits (up to 150hp dry) are calibrated for stock injectors and fuel pressures. You just have to make sure the pressure does not drop (engine will go lean real quick). the rule of thumb is 2 degrees timing retard for every 50 hp.

also in a 95 I would try 8 initial timing on a 100 shot, with ultra 94 just to be safe!

make sure you invest in a good fuel pressure guage first!

if you plan on using nitrous i would just get the kit first, then do heads cam and intake later, the nitrous alone will give you more than you are looking for at this point! It takes some getting used to.

I'm running a dry kit.It's a Zex kit on a 100 shot.With my combo feel I should be way faster than I am so far.But it takes time to learn the stuff but it is a rush.

zex makes a good system....look online at american muscle....to your door about 700 bucks for the 75 to 125 shot....and you can order bigger or smaller jets....100 is max on regular plugs,stock fuel pump etc...and i like the wet system simply because there is a much less chance of detonating because the a/f is evenly mixed with the nitrous....dry kits get sprayed before the throttle body and will never get mixed evenly going into the cylinders....jmo

Take your time and learn all the Do's and Don'ts of nitrous. A dry shot is safer because you will not have puddling in the intake, but you have to rely on your injectors/computer to increase fuel. A wet shot makes better power, but a chance of puddling on EFI intakes can happen.
