You want more information? What do you need to know beyond whether anyone has done it?

How hard is it on your motor? What Kind of boost will this give me? H/P wise. Would I be able to surprise my buddy with an 05 gt? It would be funny to sneek it on the car and give him a run. lol

I ran a Zex kit with 75 shot for two seasons and never had a problem. But you want a window switch to be safe. The window switch won't let the control unit see the rpm until you hit the set speed - if you spray too low in the rpm the engine will open a window in the block. I had mine set at 2,400 rpm to open the window and close it again at something like 6,300 rpm. I had it tuned by Lidio at Alternative Auto, and it put down good RWHP and lots of torque, with an AFR near 12.0.

I can't remember my best pass on it, but it was near 13.5 because I remember that the convertible was just nearing the mark where I had to put a 6 point cage in it to remain track legal (the Xcharger was more consistent and ran mid 12's). I know that my one friend with a GT said he hated running me after the nitrous because we were so close at that point.
