Default NOS!!!

http://www.holley.com/HiOctn/ProdLin.../PwrFoggr.html

I really dont know that much about NOS but if i get this system and only used the 35 shot would i need to get a new manifold and forged internals and would it cause great stress on my car if only used say 10 times a year?

I haven't heard anything about this system before. The tC should be able to handle the 75 shot completely stock. Just go with a colder plug. Nitrous works best when you have an unrestricted exhaust also.

I would recomend the NX #20923-10

Don't take this the wrong way, but you're only kidding yourself into thinking you'll only use n20 only 10 times A YEAR. Nitrous, when set up and used correctly, is safe (and addictive). I've had it on my last three cars, and forced induction is really the way to go. Nitrous is not cheap when you start adding bottle warmers, sensors, purge kits, etc. Just my .02 cents.

i should have my zex kit in running a 75 shot some time mid april and then its my tc is going to the track april 2nd im looking to stomp my friends 99gtp and maybe keep close to my other friends 98z28. from what i have heared the inake manifold will f-ck up with a 120 shot but there is a company going out with a new manifold that wont get ruined they also have a vid of there tc with the 120 shot keeping up with a srt-4 with some mods so thats not bad

also go with one of these kits http://zex.com/ they seem to be the safest and they are the only kit the monitors bottle presure and only lets enough fuel in to keep it from running to rich or to lean the only bad thing is the color but im getting min painted so i dont care about that

^ he is right i have been looking into it for about 1 month now i think its the right thing for me becouse i only want the power at the track so i get limited ware and tear on the engine. but some peaple want constint power they can use on the street so they go with turob's or sc or crazy rebuilt n/a setups but i just want a bottle its easy to install and if you get a good kit like the zex or nx it will be alot less likely to f-ck up your engine

the way i see it is....we are all people with opinions...you dont see us argueing and bickering about the color of your car...like bush or kerry.

im not gonna sit here and _____ and tell you that your wrong.

thats why there is a VOTE. its all in good fun.

Nothing against Nos. But when you mod your car. Lots of things can go wrong. Too easy to mess up with nos, its like putting a can of gasoline near a fire. Safe enough as long as you pay attention to the can, but accidents happen. Better safe than sorry IMO.

i guess so but the main issue peaple have is running to rich or to lean or sprying when in a high gear at low speeds most good kits dont alow any of these to happen
