NITROUS HELP! Direct port or regular wetkit?

Ok...I'm looking at getting a nitrous kit for the vehicle shown in my sig. I'm looking at running no more than a 150 maybe 175 shot...preferrably starting at 75-100 shot.

I've got an offer on the table to purchase a "like-new" NOS-05151 kit complete w/o the bottle for $325 + S&H.

OR

I could purchase a direct-port nitrous kit "used" for $400 + S&H. I just want to know if this is something you nitrous guys would recommend...I'm worried something may go wrong with the direct-port kit. Here is what the seller wrote to me in e-mail:

"I'm including the runners(with all the nitrous nozzles
attached) the nitrous 10lb. bottle, all the fuel and
nitrous lines. All you will need to do is remove your
runners, and install the nitrous ones. Remember that
you will need to replace two of the nozzles first. You
can find them on ebay for a lot less than any
retailer. Just find a suitable place to mount the
bottle and run the lines and install all the switches
and you will be good to go. I installed this system on
my stock vette with no danger to my engine. You just
need to make sure the system works properly before
hitting the nitrous."


Does that seem like a pretty good deal for $400 or should I just go with the wetkit and buy the bottle seperate...spending about the same price??

Remember...I don't want to run more than a 150 maybe 175 shot. Is it even worth to go with the direct port...even though it would be the same price as the NOS wetkit?

Thanks in advance.
