Im not a fan. Its definately the best bang-for-buck out there, but your killing your engine. You need to have some really strong internals to run nitrous without hurting your motor. but, if u are going that road then the Zex kit would be my choice. </P>


You still wont be able to hang with my blower, but u can give it a shot, haha j/k<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0"></P>


How big of a shot are u going with?? </P>


ANd... its not NOS, its NAAAWZZZZ hahaaha</P>

Nos is cool but i don't think you'll use it as much as you think. I've had a kit in my car for a year and used it 3 times.</P>

im a big nitrous fan. ive ran the zex wet kit 75 shot on a stock block d15 for 8 months and never had a problem. as long as you tune the car right and know when and how to use it you will be alright. nitrous/turbo/sc basically do the same thing by increasing air/fuel in the cyl. but nitrous gives you more tq at the same hp rating of any of the 3. nitrous good for the track but a no go on the street and thats my veiw on it.

Nitrous is great in my opinion if you want a quick hp gain but don't want to pay a lot. Although I would prefer turbochargers or superchargers over nitrous though just because nitrous is only useful for drag racing.

I dont know enough about it to run it in my car and not be worried about it all the time... plus I've heard too many horror stories, most are probably made up but enough to scare me away. I'd buy it just to purge all day!
