Default Time for Zex?

Ok I am on this island for another month, Then I go to florida and will be going for 700ish HP with my supercharged engine I am going to build. Is it worth it for me to put 500 bucks into a zex kit and run it with a 150 or more shot till I leave and then run with it for maybe... a month more when I get there or should I just wait? I got the money for both so its down to a flip of a coin I guess.

cancel your fantasy 700+hp motor, and just slap a zex kit on the stock motor.

how hard is it to self install a zex kit? i hear its pretty easy but the whole running wires and tubing might be a problem for me I dont have any upholstry tools or anything to snap all that crap back down... does it need special tools? if someone installed a zex lemme know how hard it was maybe I will do it for ***** and giggles

It took my friends and i about 6 hours with a lot of breaks and a lot of beer lol! over all i would say it was a pretty easy install and i have all the extras except the remote bottle opener. the most pain in the *** part for me was running the N2O line from the trunk to the motor, getting it thru the trunk was easy just running it under the car was a pain in the ***. other than that as long as you follow the instructions to the T you should be fine. and the only tools you should need are a wire stripper/crimper and few diffrent size drill bits (instructions let you know what sizes) and a adjustable wrench

If you think you are gonna make 10s you better have different tires and wheels on it than what I see. zex is easy to install and only needs a few simple tools and a drill
