If everything is quality and the pistons are aftermarket...you could get away with a 125 shot wet direct port all day. I ran approx 80 shot wet on a factory b18a1 with 80k miles and after 2 bottles it still came back with stock compression across the board. Its all in how you hook up the nitrous and you will deff want a wet shot and direct port is the best of all the nitrous setups.

direct port is also really expensive right?..
it has aftermarket forged pistons and rods..it will be a wet kit for sure.

125 or 150 direct port (wet or coarse) will be fine all day and should be 11 sec car on slick

I wouldn't get so happy as doing it once a day but it is deff. safe if hooked up correctly. Yes, direct port kits are a little more expensive but would you rather spend the couple hundred extra now or the couple thousand later when you burn one of your pistons because your not getting even distribution? Save some money out of an extra paycheck or 2 and you will be MUCH happier with the direct port. Also, a 75 hp shot on a wet setup that is not direct port will be slower than a 75 shot direct port setup.

1990 EF hatch b18a1 I/H/E with 75 shot ran 13.9@101.5 without launching (rolled on it like you do from a stop light).
