I was wondering if anyone here was running a 100 to a 125 shot and what type of time gains you had seen from it?

There are quite a few members here that are running spray on their GT. I currently have a 75 hooked up to my car though have yet to run it at the track.

You have any certain kit in mind?

I like NX because their kits are rated at the wheels. Stick to a 125 shot because a 150 would be too much stress on the rods.

+1 Also, NX has the best solenoids out there. And that same 150 hp shot also adds around 200 ft/lbs. of tq or more. I've always wondered why they don't advertise the torque gains instead of hp. The tq gains are more impressive to me.

yeah Zex isnt too reliable. its a decent 75hp entry level kit for fairly stock vehicles. its the kind of kit that is just enough to say you have nitrous. id go with more reliable equipment if i were you

you should have the the car tuned for it and get the A/F checked or buy your own wideband to keep the engine safe

i run a nx 100 shot, been running it for about 2 years now. in my car with nothing but an o/r x pipe and ebay cai i ran a 13.7 @ 101 on street tires, on the 100 shot i ran a 12.8 @ 110. so it makes a pretty big difference. this was all on the factory stock tune. ran it that way for a while and never had a single problem. im now in the process of working the bugs out of my tune since the cam install and once i get that done i plan to spray it and see what she does now with slicks and 3:73's. im hoping for low 12's or high 11's.

125 shot should take a good second off your E/T with a good set of tires.

on my 1996 GT wth the usual bolt on's, it ran 13.60@102mph in the 1/4 on DR's..... switched to slicks and a 50 "wet" shot and ran 12.80's at 105mph, next weekend bumped it to a 100 shot and went 12.30's at 108mph......never went any higher that a 100 shot....

No times yet, but I'm running the NOS Noszle setup with 125HP nozzles. I added an Innovate Motorsports Wideband with gauge, a FPSS and a NOS window switch.

I don't know what type of nitrous system it was but a guy at the local track ran a 11.9 on a 100shot with slicks. Stock suspension. Nitrous helps out but it does beat the hell out of your engine.

I pieced my kit together off of quite a few forums/ebay/craigslist. I would suggest getting as many safety options as you can.
