Which One?

I am new to Nitrous so what do you think I should start of with I would really like to get a WET KIT, I dont want a DRY. I have installed a ZEX WET KIT before on a friends car, that was pretty easy. I dont want to get anything to hard to install by my self.

Go with Zex if you are never gonna go higher than a 75 shot. The kit is so simple to install. If you think you might want to upgrade down the road, and go with a 75+ shot, go with NX or NOS. Both NX and NOS kits are upgradeable, and are very high quality. I personally have a NOS dry kit, but from the research I have done, all three kits are very good.

I would only get the Zex kit if you aren't comfortable installing an NX/NOS kit (they aren't much more complicated). Reason being is that a lot of stuff is built into the barney box, and if say the noid in it goes bad you are stuck with buying a new barney box. I believe Zex has a wet kit out now too, but I am kinda partial to the NX/NOS kits. As for the power, they are all equal (however NX rates their shots at the wheels rather than the cranks, so a 75 shot of NX is probably equivalent to a 100 shot of other brands).

If you installed the zex kit you can handle the NX install. Its really not that hard, just can be time consuming. I say go NX as well. I love mine. Plus like already stated NX is rated at the wheels rather than crank.

Thanks for the input, I have decide to get the NX Wet Kit. I will post up pics when I get it installed. One other thing when I get the KIT is there anything I should watch out for like instaltion problems that you had while you guys have installed your own. Thanks again

Purge kit, bottle heater, and pressure gauge. You need these for best results.

it probably won't be as affective in Hawaii, but it will still help. See, with a wet kit the recommended jetting for the fuel is for when the bottle is at 1050 psi or so, and a bottle warmer will keep you consitantly at that. If you plan on doing any racing at the track it is very beneficial.

no problem, you could easily get away without a warmer, but it is a very nice accessory. In fact, the genx2 upgrade has a lot of good stuff in it. Purge, n2o guage, blow down tube (incase your bottle has way too much pressure and the burst disc goes, the n2o will go through the tube and outside the car) and of course the bottle warmer. If you are going to get a warmer I would highly recommend a guage. Most importantly for safety, but it will also give you an idea on how well the shot will spray.
