i run a wet kit from zex. as far as being adjustable, its got interchangable jets from 75-125 shot. every brand makes wet and dry kits, imo wet is safer (as long as you follow directions and avoid fuel puddling in the intake) especially in your case as it seems you may not know a ton about nitrous. the zex kit comes with a nitrous management unit, you just run your lines into the box and its set to spray at WOT. very simple kit.\\

do a search for zex nitrous installation and you should see a thread i made a while back showing the install.

if you dont feel like reading it, best place for the bottle is the right side of the wheel well in the hatch area (no room on the left side)

hmm i dont really understand where u mean, i forget where my buddys is i thoguht he said it was under the cowl vent or soemthin tho
Click to expand...

....i think your very confused

if your asking where to mount a purge line, then sure under the cowl vent is fine, if your asking where to mount a 24lb bottle of nitrous oxide, then the hatch/trunk is the only way. unless hes running a sneaky pete system of some sort.

i think either you or your buddy are very confused.

read the link i posted. it will tell you how to set it all up step by step.

ok. is your car a notch or hatchback? something will have to be moved, unless youd like to mount it in your back seat and then its VERY unsafe and not track legal.

nitro with the bitchtits for the win

looks like the air intake tube style is the easiest to install?
I like this zex kit, its affordable as well, i heard dry kits are better for 5.0's? whats the major difference in wet or dry???

dry shot is JUST nitrous, wet shot is nitrous AND fuel.

no need for a computer chip, and youll need to RETARD your timing, not advance it. ive got mine at 10* and have yet to have a problem.

it is legal with a blowdown tube, you could put it right next to you if you really wanted to
