Nitrous?


Hey guys, I am thinking about spending the money for this kit...

ZEX-82015: DRY 5.0 Ford Nitrous System

All major components are contained in the ZEX? 'NMU', which means you won't have any unsightly solenoids or wiring.
Uses actual bottle pressure to regulate the nitrous to fuel ratio, always optimizing the mix. Never too rich, never too lean!
Nitrous kit only activates when you hit full throttle.
The Zex Dry Kits will only work with vehicles with a port fuel injected engine with a return style fuel system.


$539.95

Has any one on here ever used this? and if so what do you think? I have never messed with NOS before so any help from experts would be really cool

first off NOS is a brand name not a piece of equipment, what you want is called nitrous. and what size jets is that kit for? seems kinda high for a dry kit, but really the best route to go is to buy a used kit for about half the price with all the stuff.

OK?......


First. Let me say thanks for the reply......But in return.... I am a 37 year old state and ASE certified mechanic of 15 years in Michigan. I abbreviated with ( NOS ) because I did not feel like typing Nitrous Oxide System. Not because I don't know the brands out there. I am looking for some advice from someone with real world experience with ***Nitrous*** on a 5.0 Mustang. Not a lesson on brand names, thanks.

i have a 125 shot on mine but whatever you want dude. but just about everyone on here will also tell you nx is the way to go. i bought a used 75-175 nx wet system, really that would be the way to go picked mine up for 300$ sell new for over 600.

I don't know if you can get 200 out of a dry kit. Can you? The dry kit is fine, it is just puts a limit on the power possibilities.

I have a Compucar wet kit setup and so far I love it. I have had it for about 5 months now and no problems. It has 50, 90, 125, and 150 jets with it.

Thanks guys.... I like this kit cause everything is controlled by the chip in the box. It adjusts fuel by reading bottle pressure, and has a WOT switch so it only sprays a 100% throttle. I dont really want to go more than a 100 HP shot. I think that will be enough to put me in the 11s. but not be to hard on the motor. Oh yea, I also found it somewere else for $460.00.

If you hook good a 100 shot should do it.

Hopefully I can get this car to run some decent times..
