Well, does it make sense? with a good kit and tune its not going to really cheap $1000??? and you don't have that power all the time and need to fill bottles $. If you haven't already done it- TVS for like $1400 is going to be an easy install and tune - pump gas +100whp.

First question should be -- what are your goals? if its 50-75whp -- just pulley the eaton and tune it. You want to max out the stock engine, you can do it with a TVS. *** NOS does have a bonus of cooling things down ***

If you haven't already - drive in some modded shelbys to get an idea --- My TVS hits hard like NOS -- defn need to respect the road conditions before you get a heavy foot.

I currently have a 2.65 upper and 10% lower.. Due to getting married I have to put off the bigger blower for a couple years... I just want a little extra for right now... I plan on either going KB 2.8 mammoth or vmp gen 2 with cam's...

I also don't have headers but do run the off road X-pipe... I like the car lookin stock for the most part and I think the 50 shot will be enough for the street just wanna get opinions on reliability with it!

A stand alone or dedicated fuel system is a small tank with its own fuel pump that feeds the wet/fuel side of the nitrous system. I have one in my cobra and they do get expensive once you buy the stand alone and nitrous kit. However it does allow you to run race fuel in the small tank which is a huge benefit. But at that point you could most Likely buy a used blower
