Sweet install Chris I like how you mounted the bottle. Did you take of the zex label, if so be careful some places won’t fill it with out the label or so I've heard. Anyway congrats to another ZEX owner!!!!!!!!!

its just like turbo....initial price aint even close.....with all the supporting mods and extras a kit like mine can easily go for 12-1500 without labor.....it starts off with the actual kit.....then you gotta get guages, some fittings are better to use than others, braided line, arming switches cuz the ones they give you look cheesy, bottle fill, bottle armer, remote bottle opener, purge kit.....it all adds up quick...sure its cheaper than a turbo or supercharger but in the end it will come close when its all added up....

thats allot of time but i wanted it to get done right.....so i enlisted the nitrous guru of our boards (Charles R. Hill) and he helped me with the mechanical portion and if i must say his attention to detail was on point!....my car goes to shows allot so he made it a point to make it a clean install....he even commented on how he felt he did a cleaner install in my car than his own.....then i went in for part 2 the electrical and lurch519 happens to be a master installer for a stereo/performance shop and he had that part handled for me in a professional show quality way......yeah im sure you can get it done in 6-8 hours but will it look stock?...probably not...im patient and i wanted it done right not right away

A bit old thread but i wanted to ask some things bro..
Did you have any problems with the nitrous??Also is it easy to ride when activating??I know its arround 55hp(whp or crank hp???)and what torque estimated??
I am thinking it with crh to add it up with my mazport turbo kit 3 and the porting adn the rebuild and many many many more parts to get over the 500hp crank...
Any info would be appreciated also any vid driving it would be great

so far no issues at all.....i have been running it for a few months and the car has no changes what so ever...i have it set up to go at wide open throttle and kicks in completely...the pull feels like a strong V8 to me

Well i have been looking in to going with nitrous, and i thought the kit that Charles recommends comes with everything you need, like bottle opener, nozzles, lines, swithches, all that good stuff. Is that true, or did you need to buy all that stuff cause this new kit is updated and the one you bought isnt?
