Arrow Blah I just don't know what to do - need your opinions

Well...while I strugle with dealing with these problems installing the nitrous kit..I got to thinking..

I had ALOT of fun racing N/A..I'm not sure anymore if I want to worry about breaking something everytime I go down the 1320 with nitrous...because I can't really afford a rear end. I sort of want to just sell the n20, buy some cams, a hood and a wing..and call it a day on my stang..

I just don't know at this point, I'm not ready to deal with my intake blowing at a track thats an hour and a half away from home.

blah! what do you guys think i should do?

btw for everyting i payed about $1200...NX Ford Efi kit, NX Gen X-2 kit, Mustang Tuning's Cupholder 3 position switch panel, and MSD window switch...I might be taking offers..

If your worried about messing up your car, i wouldnt put it on. Cuz you will be going to college soon, and you dont want to be worring about it. But who ever buys it from you will most likly get if for less then you paid. so someone will get a good deal

That is the same reason I am leary about NOS on my stang. I just got in a street skirmish with a green GT stang. I was confident I would dust the sh** out of him with my setup. Off a 40 mph roll we both hit it, I was up by a car and then he just punched his NOS. At about 110 on a bridge I figured that was about my limit. He was gone like a shot, way over 120. Caught up with him a looooooooong time later, and he told me he was NOS'd out. Fun race though! I guess it just depends on how much you want to dust fools! Personally I worry about tanking the engine but I love to see the setup under a hood and purging looks sick! Just my opinion.

Jon I'm going through the same thing right now.I just can't decide on the direction I want to go with my car.I'm leaning toward a front bumper,rear bumper,side skirt's and a different wing but I also would love to do LT's and Cam's.

yeah it's hard...I'm still second guessing my decion every 10 minutes.

IMO for the money LTs and Cams arent worth it...if I had to choose between that and bumper skirts and wing, i choose the ladder...

or you could go with a power adder...i know a great nitrous kit for sale

You made the right choice on selling the N20, now, correct your bad choice about the S281 wing.
Cobra wing FTW.

No you wouldn't. You filled in your letters.
When and if I ever change my covers, I will do the side skirts too.
I will be the UBER Cobra poser.

The thing I like about it is it lowers your stance by 1 1/2.But I love the Cobra rear.
