I agree with neat, pete k, and vader86.
Do either nitrous route or vader86 route, but my personal vote is for nitrous, NOS-05151 kit (550), NOS bottle heater (135) or Zex-82045 bottle heater (plug in to cig lighter and no wiring issue for 159 from rpmoutlet.com), and NGK spark plug (fr5) which is 1 step colder, and couple of timing retard and u rock n roll.

and Don;t buy the eliminators, have your local shop cut off the mufflers and weld on straight pipes. First find the tips you want togo back with (ebay is good place to look).

I know some cars with over 150K on the engine that have been using a bottle of nitrous a week for the last 100K that haven't ever had a problem. Of course your results may vary, but 118K shouldn't be a deterrent to using nitrous.
