Ok so people have been spraying the 197's for a while now. Whats the word? Has anyone heard of any problems? Also is Zex the only company with a kit out right now? Does anyone have a caned tune for the zex kit yet? I am wanting to go with a 75 to a 100 shoot.

No tune is needed to run the nitrous but I do suggest checking the A/F ratio on a dyno prior to running it.

I have sprayed a total of 7 times on the strip and this past time my automatic transmission didnt like the power going through 4th. I guess its time to tune that trans better than DTP could.

I have had no problems with the ZEX kit on my 2005 Mustang GT. 75 HP is fine on the stock tune, anything higher and you need to take some timing out. Diablosport has tunes ready to go and tested for the ZEX kit.
