if you plan on staying at a 55 shot, then you should be fine any more and I would get colder plugs, timing retard (1 to 2 degrees), and a new fuel pump. Zex only makes a dry kit and you can spray anytime above 2500 RPM (i say 3000) Also you can spray in any gear but i would recommend 1st thru 4th.

The install is real easy me and a kid that has zex on his car did the install.I would get the zex spark plugs(2 steps cold,you dont need to gap them),iv got an msd 6a igintion,blaster 2 coil , plug wires(magnocor),and iv got an air fuel gage but you dont have to have one.If you go 65 or 75 shot you need to retard you timing(65=2,75=4).One last thing,make sure the are no restrions in your fuel system,make sure the fuel fillter is chaged and fuel pump is working good.And you cluch is in good shap,mine was in bad shap before the zex,now its almost gone,i guess thats next for me??

For a dry kit and a 55 shot, I'd get one step colder plugs to be safe. I have an a/f ratio gauge and it is useless. I also have a nitrous pressure gauge that is useful. I'd get a purge kit, I couldn't live without mine. If you have the money I would suggest a remote bottle opener.
