How much info do you know about the kits? ie, you know about progressive kits that put less strain on your parts due to it not being instant 50bhp. Plus you can get switches under the accelerator pedal so it only comes in when your foot is fully pressed down.
If you know all this already, what else do you need to know?

What engine is it going to be pumping through???
And dont buy anything other than a Wizards of Nos kit.All the others WILL fail and cause damage.Its the pulsoids that are bad on all the other kits.

For safety you'll want a WON wet kit and see if you can get hold of a cheap minimax controller if you dont wanna risk blowing stuff up.
Ignore Corsa_sport21... sounds like someone who is only repeating what he's heard others say.
Most kits are ok but the best kits out there are Wizard of Nos kits.... and there is plenty of backup and support for people fitting these kits.
You best bet if you really are interested in fitting the kit is speak to Chip or SBD16v in MIG as they helped me when i had my nos kit

Pretty much anything.... 25/50/75/100/200 etc etc
I'd say a max of 50/75 without a controller and 100 with or 150 if you wanna be mad! haha

I had a 50bhp WON kit matey with huge chrome 11lb bottle, no controller but had a microswitch fitted which activated when on full throttle and a button on steering wheel. So when you wanna use it and your on full throttle you just push the button!
Worth it but fucking addictive! Just get it for 1/4 mile and take the bottle out for the road or you have to by law tell your insurance company you have a kit fitted!
I sold it ages ago matey.

Like everyone else has said before.... DO NOT BUY ANYTHING OTHER THAN A WIZARDS OF NOS KIT!!!!!!
I used some cheap dynotune solenoids before, and the seals were useless and started leaking after a month
As your on TB's you will need a direct port wet kit
and get a 11lb bottle (or two) don't bother with a small bottle it wont last long enough...... trust me
keep an eye out on ebay, second hand kits come up quite often
Not sure what shot you can safely use on that engine, but i reckon 50 would be the absolute limit on a fixed hit tbh.
