Nitrous users? What kit do you use?

[Sierra]

Just curious what kind of car you have and what kit do you have. IE: 2000 GT, Zex kit (FORD EFI).

How do you like it?

Did you do the install?

How much do you think you paid for the entire setup?

What extra "upgrades" such as window switch ect did you buy for safety reasons.

What other parts did you need to buy for the car? IE: New fuel pump, new intake ect..

[HOT CRAWL]

fuck the zex

dude, i've owned a zex kit for my mustang. they suck. damn thing comes on like a blower. not bamm. shit sucks buy a NX kit

[93SVT]

Go NX

iv known people that have had very good luck with both the NOS brand systems and the NX, dont get zex.... For the newer stangs like yours I would go NX, for older fox stangs its a toss up beetween the NX and NOS, whatever you do make sure you get all the support stuff, nitrous gauge, fuel pres, gauge, fuel pres safty swtich, wide open throttle switch and you should do a bigger fuel pump imho, 255 walbros are cheep and good insurence, dont forget to swap your plugs for a simple autolight or ngk, also makes sure they are gapped right. window siwtches bottle heaters , purge valves and remote openers are very nice to have as well, a good system will cost you but if done right it should be just as safe and reliabel as a blower imho

What kit would you recommend from mustang-x.com?

There are Nitrous express kits
What is the difference between the stage kits, the race kits? Im looking at only running a 75 shot and maybe a 100 shot at the track?

What 4.6 guys have done an install of N20 on this board?

[93SVT]

not sure what kit to go with, your best bet is to bring this up on corral and see what everyone els is using, I dont beleave there are any 4.6 car on here with juice, but dont quote me on that, there are a few 3.8 liter's sparaying and im pretty sure the kits are the same for the most part

[theduckylittle]

Well, I'd first sit back and think of what sort of kit do you want to run? What size of shot is neccessary for the HP goals you're trying to make?

There's a whole TON of options with nitrous these days.

The Fogger kits, the wet-kits, and the dry-kits.

Furthermore, you may want to think twice about putting nitrous on a 4.6 Litre. They have that plastic upper intake manifold that allows the nitrous to "pool" up making the danger of a nitrous "back fire" ever emminant.

But if it is the route to go, and you want something simple... if you're looking at like a 75 shot (not terribly extreme), then you're going to be best served by either the NX kit or the Holley NOS kit. Why? Because more people have installed them. With popularity comes ease in this case.

I must say, however, that if your care is "relatively" stock. IE: Stock"ish" exhaust, no chip, stock shifter, no cold air kit, yachta yachta. You might want to think about investing in those first, and seeing how they improve your car.

Looking at a 50 or 75 shot only. Looking at the dry kit. Found that there is a less chance of puddling. I have a whole sluth of bolt ons that will be going on in the spring and late summer.

Do you drive your car at school ducky? Cant say Ive seen it, I had my cobra up here till about October before the snow came. I may bring it back up here after Easter break, or maybe wait till summer to drive it again.

[theduckylittle]

I've actually got two cars.

My "other one" is a 1992 Bonneville -- kinda maroon/red with leather grey interior.

I remember seeing your car around. do you live in Walsh? hit me up ... 7-1814.

I wouldn't get zex... or any dry kit, but that is me.
i agree with 93svt's first post for the most part.
i'd recomend a pressure gauge, a low fp cutout switch, bottle heater... and you could get a purge kit if you'd like too.
i like nitrous works' kit for the 5liter... but that doesn't apply to you.
I also think a nitrous kit can be JUST as safe as a blower... if not more.

I personally own a nitrous works wet kit. It is not installed yet but will be as soon as spring hits (among other things ) Anyways, if I had the choice I'd go with nitrous express. They make the most power per shot from what I've seen. I also believe they are just as safe if not safer than a blower, when tuned properly. Nick

check your pm's

[Ford Fan]

Check yours.

Mnstang, the part im worried about and have read many cases of this happening is puddling in the plastic intake and having that ignite. So im pretty certain I want to get a dry kit.
Im going to do more research for now, I have a whole bunch of bolt ons going on this spring so n20 will come later.

Im honestly sick of hearing this, its too stupid for words, its not that they make any more power, its just they rate it diffrent, most if not all nitrous companys rate there kits at flywheel hp, NX rates at whp, its not to hard to figure out what the conversion would be, if you want the same out put from your nos system as a 100 hp shot of NX then run the 120 jets in the NOS, its pretty simple. I say go with NX based on there warrenty and tech support, not beacause they rate at whp, to be honest when my nos soilenoids go out i will most lickly buy NX ones to replace them if i can find one that is the same size. The most commen mistake I see with nitrous is buying it with out doing your research. I dont think there is anything wrong with dry kits, they are limited in the hp levals you can run but they work very well for many applications

i understand your concern about puddling fuel in your intake... but I do not like dry kits. my .02
have you thought about the nossle kits?
or the new NX kits that have the solenoids and EVERYHING concealed in the fuel rail? - those look really cool.
