zex is about the best bang for the buck,do not forget to upgrade your fpr or you will be burst vacuum lines with anything over a 75 shot.

A few questions for you...
Wet or dry kit? What jets are you planning on running? What does your exhaust look like? Have you done your homework on the operations and dangers of N20?(trust me, I did this and it helps you understand how it works and why it works much better) Tom |

Wet or dry kit? ~Dry
What jets are you planning on running? ~55 shot only What does your exhaust look like? ~shot for now, all new in 2 weeks tho Have you done your homework on the operations and dangers of N20?(trust me, I did this and it helps you understand how it works and why it works much better) ~yes I have, and I was going to ask you actually, which plugs should I run, I know its supposed to be a colder plug... but which for a small dose?

Most people on this board use iridiums,but I have used autolites nonresistor on nos for years,also with a small shot like that you don't need to switch plugs,I RAN bosch plugs plus 4s with a 75 shot not recommended for you,go the safe route.

alright, I run platinum tipped bosch... they're 10 bucks a piece but they work great... I will plumb it all up and them charge the bottle... then I will compare before to after on the strip...
this whole thing came about because me and my friend want to race the legal way, he has a 455 big block delta 88 and it was going to be a stock vs. stock race, but he put on an edlebrock intake and holly 4 barrel carb... as well as some other small things, so I am just re-evening the origonal race before I might turbo the car... so I am going to do the ZEX nos kit, small intake stuff, exhaust and a new ECUtune chip... not sure which yet tho...

Make sure your tps sensor is ok,I have always run mine at .55volts give the car a little more midrange,but yours should be ok at .45 volts,also clean your airflow meter element,get some good tranny fluid,this is just the small stuff that may slow your performance.good luck

Ive been using a ZEX dry kit basic kit for
about 3 yrs. Usually I run a 65 or 75 shot, never more dont push my luck. But with it, its a whole nuther car. I fill my bottle about once every 6 weeks or so. My car has about 160k on it Iridiums or copper only. ecutune stage I, green filter, muffler and Msd box also, but not necessary

new, stock 4eat for now... there will be new gearing or a 5 speed some day in the near future. I decided against the NOS, to much work and so I sold it and now I am just getting ready to do my exhaust...

Wow, didn't realize it was that much. Do you ever use the nitrous in your laguna blue, Earl? That one had it, right?
I personally won't be able to afford LAN's stage III for quite a while, but I don't think it would be worth the extra wear 'n tear to use nitrous before putting in forced induction... unless an engine rebuild was in the plan.
