Which nitrous kit to go with

I am in the process of getting my camaro finished, I had a 350 built to put in it (well its a 355 now)and i am going to put n2o on it I have been reading up on it quite a bit before i just go and slap it on. But what kit should i get for it? I am debating between the NX Hitman kit, the NOS Super Powershot kit, or the NOS Sniper kit. I don't think i am going to run over a 150 shot on it but that could change later on. I was just really wanting to know the ups and downs of each kit and who is running them and what you think of them. BTW i am going to be getting a purge kit, bottle warmer, and gauge as well, because i dont think any of the above kits come with them. It will be ran on a WOT switch. The car is carbed so i am going to run a plate. Thanks for any help

There may be nicer kits out there but I've used a NOS brand nitrous kit on a TPI firebird and it went pretty smoothly. The only think I thought was "cheap" was the throttle activation switch set up. I'd also recommend upgrading to the nicer hinged NOS bottle brackets. If my memory serves me correctly I went from a 14.7-14.8's to 13.5-13.7's on a 100shot with an increase of 8 to 9 MPH. This was a bone stock formula 350.

NX is the best. I had a holley NOS brand kit on my vett. It worked great for 3 1/2 years, then a soleniond went bad. Burnned 2 valves because the nitrous soleniond leaked when I turned the bottle on. I recenlty added a NX kit to my supercharged Z. I must say, the solenionds are 2X as large as the ones on my nos kit. I think the NX noids are comparative to the larger holley nos solenoids. Holley does not garuentee their noids for life as NX does. That says a lot!
