Re: which nos kit to buy?

I used the Cold Fusion brand wet setup. I is top quality and is rated at Wheel HP. So, for example, the 200 HP setting is really more like 250 at the crank. It dropped my 1/8 mile et's from 8.60's to 7.90's. I paid arouln $450 for the whole setup. Here's a link to my install.

I'm going to be trying the Brand X kit from nitro dave's nitrous outlet. remember, you really need a bottle heater and stuff to get the most out of it. not to mention all the safety parts to make it legal for the track

Re: which nos kit to buy?

Im a big fan of nitrous express. the bottle heats up WAY faster then nos and a few others i have tried, there hp ratings are rated at the wheels so it hit really hard! plus you can say i only running a 100 shot and it will really be about a 125 or more crank hp and suprise more people. The system with the most safe stuff and easiest to mount up would be ZEX but the kit are rated at the fly and most of the system max out at 125 shot. So it depends on what shot you wanna run.

Re: which nos kit to buy?

Here's the one from Cold Fusion.

http://www.coldfusionnitrous.com/Wet...?CategoryID=37

It's the same one as the LT1 but they put the correct fuel jets in for 3rd gen fuel pressures. Just let em know what you got, what fuel pressure you'll be running, and they'll fix you right up! And a super group of guys to give you advice too.

I bought mine off of ebay and it was under $500 with shipping.

Re: which nos kit to buy?

I like NX, NOS, and ZEX. They all make great kits. I like plate kits but thats just my opinion. I run a NOS plate and NX solenoids.

Re: which nos kit to buy?

I got a HSW kit on mine. Harris Speed Works. Designed for LT1 cars but you can adapt it to your thirdgen L98/LB9 etc

single nozzle kit rated up to 150whp. i made a few custom mounts for the solenoids and bought their LT1/TPI style WOT switch/bracket setup for an extra 20 bucks.

400 bucks plus whatever extras you want for a kit.
