Old man cool. Most low class scum like you have to fight to get through life. I feel for you. Did your parents teach you the class you have? Or group home?

somebody pass the popcorn :D :reddevil

my bet is that the install cost for NOS can vary greatly. Probably depends on the honesty of the installer. Like anything there are some who prey on people who do not have information.

FWIW. The install took me about 6 hours. Only an hour to install the hardware and the rest was wiring it up and then running back to the auto store for more wiring parts. The hardest part is tapping into the PCM if you install a TPS switch (which I think you should) and soldering it back up. Ohhh did I do a bad job on the solder :D

Just call or email 5-10 places you think could install it and go form there.

I called Miami area shops you e-mailed me. Prices have gone up since your N20 install.
I am looking at full Nitrous kit with all the goodies installed. Both shops would not give me lockin price over the phone, want to see my extras. When I asked am I looking at $300 for full hidden clean install. Was told bring in parts and expect to pay $600 and up, depending on my add ons.

What ever happened with the other forum member who is running TNT and had his car catch fire?

Maybe I missed the detailed thread on exactly what happened.

No NOS for me, I'll keep my car N/A. PLUS, refilling NOS tanks over here would be a NIGHTMARE!!

This post is AWESOME!!!

Skeeter,
I remember I made a post maybe 2 weeks ago and people were all asking you how a basic kit could be installed for $300. I am just wondering if anyone else on this forum has gotten the same kinda price, give or take $75, from a performance shop you mentioned.
