Talking Beating the old Nitrous Dead horse

Ok, i searched through all the old posts on nitrous, and read most. Is there a lightning kit out yet? I would like to get a 100hp kit. I only have a superchip and Filter so far, what do i do with the chip? What else will i need to prep the truck up for the juice? I am not really that worried about cost, i want to do it right. My truck has just over 2k miles on it. Once it is all done i want to make a fake little wall in the back of the bed so it hides nice for those street races =). So let me know what i need to get this rolling i want to go get my $50 back from that guy with the SS =p.

Ashenor, I spoke with NOS the other day and they told me that the Lightning NOS kit would be out sometime this month. It's going to be a 125-150 hp kit. The cost is going to be a little over $500.00. I am to considering the NOS kit but I just purchased 4.10 gears for my truck so I am wating to see how those perform. If they aren't enough I am going with the NOS kit as well. HANKFAN

Ashenor. The NOS kit # is 5112. I called around and like HANKFAN said, should be out very soon. But at least I found the part number so that we can all check on it from time to time until its released.

I read some old posts, is exhaust a must to let it breathe better if you do NoS? Also will i need to set up something different on my superchip, or can i leave it alone? Anything else i need to do to prep the truck for it?

Thanks

I spoke with Eldelbrock the other day. They said their kit for the Lightning will be coming out soon. They wouldn't say how soon.
