Why does everyone always say that NX is the best and NOS is not as good as NX. Everytime somone asks a what nitrous kit to buy every one says don't get NOS get NX. What is the diff and what makes NX so much better then NOS?

Says who? NOS has been making kits 5 times longer than any other company out there. I have prove that a nos dry kit can make the same if not more power than NX kits.

With that being said I like both kits.

The NOS nozzle kit is one of the best kits if not the best. It's a direct port which is better than wet or dry. Why is it sitting in your room? Get it in your car!!

wet kits work great on simple intake manifolds like victors or sheet metal. dry kits work for everything else but have to use the fuel injectors for the extra fuel. its not the best idea to use a wet kit on a stock ford intake, its does make big power but increases the chance of back fire and grenaded intake 100x over a dry kit. dry kits are just limited by the injectors and computer tune for the newer cars. direct port rules all and cannot be rivaled by any. NOS just makes bolt on kits that work safely. other company tweak there power or jet numbers to sell their product but there parts work and flow the same as NOS untill you get into the all out race parts and NOS is the by far the best.
