will this nitrous setup work on a TBI?

ok i was thinkin the other day about doing up some nitrous on my car until i can afford to buy a new crate motor and make power the real way.anyways i wanted to know if using a plate system for a carb would work on a TBI mounted onto a 4bbl manifold with an adapter plate.i saw the kit meant for TBI and its hella more expensive than a standard plate system,and i want to switch manifolds anyways.thanks for any feedback guys.

You could do it but you will need to rejet the system based on the higher fuel pressure that TBI (12-15 PSI) uses over carbed systems (5-7 PSI).
