When I installed my Nitrous kit back in 1996, NOS recommended the 5.0 Mustang nitrous kit for use with MPFI 60* V-6 cars. At least that is what the tech guy I talked to said. The kit was WAAAAAY cheaper than $670 too. There is a non-adjustable kit for 86-93 5.0 Mustangs that is pre-set for 75 HP gain. It is the 05115 kit, and it is listed in the Summit Catalog for $469.95. I didn't get any specifics about the system, but make sure it has a throttle body switch so that the system only activates at WOT. If not, you could damage something.

My kit is adjustable from 50 to 150 HP, but since I set it up for a 75 HP shot, I don't see that there would be any difference in the performance between the two kits. I don't think it would be hard to install, and would cost a lot less money. I have mentioned this several times in other threads, but it keeps coming up, so I keep letting people know what worked good for me. BTW, my car is a 1992 Firebird 3.1 liter Automatic, in case anyone was curious. The kit has been on since spring 1996, and I haven't had any problems with either the engine or the kit.

I know that when you inject nitrous into a motor you have to inject a corresponding amount of fuel, otherwise you will run lean and fry a piston. How does this kit you mention add extra fuel? Does it use the fuel injectors?
