Looking at putting on the following:

Zex 75-150hp nitrous system (#82034)
Zex Bottle heater
Zex Blow off kit
Zex window switch
Air/fuel gauge
Nitrous pressure gauge
Fuel pressure gauge
(gauges in replacement triple pillar pod)

I am currently piecing together now before install - Questions are:
1) Do I need anything else to make the system safer?
2) Planning to run 75 shot - Do I need colder plugs?

Appreciate any responses or advice......

You would also need the Autolite HTO 3v Spark plugs which are 1 heat range colder...set of 8 are around 100 bucks.

You will need the colder plug and at 100hp and above you will need a tune. I ran a 3 pod A-pillar set up and I can not put the sun visor down now as it hits the top pod. That is not a big deal but some people would not like that. I can post a pic if you like. If I had it to do over again I would have gone 2 on the A-pillar and a 2 pod on the dash top.

Yeah - send a pic - I have to drop visor to get to latches to open top - I am looking at the pillar for the vert's hopefully will clear, but I will check - thanks for heads up. I already have a Demolet 93 octane tune on car now.

he means you will need a nitrous specific tune.

Sorry about not being clear about the tune being Nitrous spec...

As far as being to get to your vert latches, that should not be a problem. I was refering to putting the visor down to block the sun. It is just the price of performance i guess.

Here are some bad night time pics for now if you need better pics just let me know.

Thanks for all the input...Another question:
Does anyone know the law in Tennessee regarding nitrous in your street car. I do not live in TN but do travel there often. I have found limited info on the net and going on what some guys have told me that the system has to be unhooked - can someone give me some good info on this?
