Just need to get a fogger nozzle and some properly sized jets and you're good to go. That's for a basic setup with no frills (window, fuel pressure safety, etc.)

Hell, the bottle itself is probably worth the $100. I'd snag it up either way.

If you do get it make sure you buy all the "frills"...please don't 'splode your motor.

i figured the bottle was worth the hundred bucks alone, and i just found the zex kit minus bottle for 350 new, so if i cant peice it together i could buy that and still save a hundred bucks

if you wanna spray dry, you need a nozzle, 3' of braided for the nozzle,nitrous reg, vac tee , micro switch and thats it

cost about $85-$100 probably for brand new

jetting for dry kits are :

42 in the jet 67 in the tee for 100 hp
67 in the nozzle and 42 in the tee for 150 hp (need to shim the reg for this)
42 nozzle 59 tee for 80
