First off I will start with the cons
1. Addictive like CRACK!!!!!!!!
2. If not set up right your engine goes BOOM!!
3. The bottle goes empty while a super/turbo charger does not
4. They send you jets that can go from 75 to 175 shot (at least with my kit they did) and you say you only want to use the 75 shot. I refer you back to number 1.
5.Voids your warrenty

PROS
1. Addictive like CRACK!!!!!!!!
2. They send you jets that can go from 75 to 175 shot (at least with my kit they did) and you say you only want to use the 75 shot. I refer you back to number
3. It's cheap
4. It's fun
5. If set up correctly very safe
6. repete all of the above

Seriously I have the Zex kit and I'm spraying a 100 shot and it's a ton of fun when it comes on. Get a good tune for it and buy good stuff. You need more than the basic kit you need a bottle heater, guage, you can live without a purge kit, but a remote bottle opener is well worth the extra bucks.

I don't have any I can run down stairs and snap a couple and email them to you if you want. Purple bottle in the trunk two purple boxes in the engine compartmentand some braided lines is all there is to see.

Make sure you get guages. You want to be sure everyhtings running good. And only use it when the cars running good.

I'm actually curious to where the Window Switch should be mounted for the Zex Kit.

I did alot of research on these kits over the past summer. I liked what I read.
What stopped me from making that jump was the availability of Nitrous in my area.
