a universal wet kit from NX should do the trick. they have a wide range of cars on their 'which jets to use' worksheet, just pick something with similar displacment altho they are all pretty close. Better yet, go to a dyno and swtich jets around and find the power and the A/Fs that you want. it is kinda alot of work for intermitant power tho, so if you don't drag race its money put better somewhere else (unless of course you have a neighbor hood vendetta you need to win )

Porsche-O-Phile, There is many diffrent kits that you can get to run 75 wet on a 924S/944. I run a Zex 75wetshot that I toook off my 944S2 now on my 924S. My 924S with the lower compression of 9.7:1 has had no problems running the shot with 0 Retard and 2 stage colder plugs on 93 octane. With that setup though you have to watch the RPM that you floor it and also be careful not to hit the revlimiter so it really is only useful for straitline.

There are better ways to set it up but the above setup is like $500....

On this kit, do you have to flip a switch? Or is it hooked to an RPM activated switch? I had a kit on my 96 Z28 but once turned on it activated and shut off according to RPM.

Also, did you upgrade the fuel pump or put an auxiliary pump?

I am seriously thinking about swapping to a 968 3.0 soon, so for a little fun I thought Nitrous might be fun on the old engine. Its not worth anything anyway, may as well have fun.
