Best Nitrous systems for carbs??

Hey guys I am lookng into a nitrous system for my car, I was wondering what everyone thinks is the best out there rigth now, NOS, NX, Edelbrock, etc... I was looking for somthing that could be changed form aroudn a 75 shot up to a 200. Or somthing I can upgrade later to make it to 200. I plan on runing a 75 on it now and maybe go to a 100 once in a while, then build the bottom end up and spray the 150-200. So what kit and by who does everyone suggest? thanks guys

<~~ NOS user

Not really sure what the difference is to be honest.. I've heard that an NX 100 shot is more than a NOS 100 shot, NX rates at the wheels and NOS rates at the flywheel but i never understood what the big deal is.. They all use Nitrous Oxide, They all have Nitrous solenoids and Fuel solenoids, whats the difference?

I have'nt committed to juice yet, but in all my studying the NX kit offers solenoids that are quite a bit bigger and stouter than the NOS kits. They are supposed to have longer life and the ability to go bigger in the future without having to buy bigger solenoids. Hence the "upgraded" price for seemingly the same output.
