ok guys, ive been down the turbo road a few times and have loved but.. if i do it again i will most likely have to get custom pistions/ rods sense i cannot find some 4agze pistons. either way i am collecting parts to get her on the road again for this summer. so far ive got some more gauges on the way, new ACT clutch to be installed... i am waiting to see which pressure plate i want, i'll probably go for the 275tq one just to be safe. either route i go with my motor will be getting a port and polish job... rear drum to disc is also on my list to be done but sense i have had many problems with the turbo i am now looking into N20 (i guess i going backwards as some may see this) but, has anyone here ran nitrous on there 1.8 7afe? im looking for all details like:

what brand nitrous kit?
dry wet or DP (direct port)?
what size shot?
upgraded clutch?
any problems experienced?
anything else worth noting...

thanks for your opinions and input in advance.

doggy, please dont see it as giving up. ive pushed the 7a turbo pretty damn far and it has cost me too much. i probably could have done a 3s swap, bought a highmilage GT, to prep for another swap... but anyways, thanks for the link, i knew about them but forgot what was offered there. i dont think i will have time to purchase them and do the work i really want sense i plan to get the car back much sooner than i ever planned so im kinda rushing back into picking up some speed /general maintance parts toget her back on the road. i think i can get away with low boost 5-6psi for a longer period of time and in the summer do the pistions. i have 3 7afe's laying around....
