Default Nitrous

Looking on some opinions on the bottle. Been looking at nitrous kits, but not sure if i want to do it. If you could give me some yay or nays would be much appreciated, and any and all products or kits you would recommend.

if you have 500 bucks or so to put into your can, then do it. its a bitchin up grade and if you do it right its not too bad for your car. personally i would go with a wet system only because you dont have to worry as much about detonation, however others will swear by a dry system. i have a ZEX wet system and so far i love it. ill be honest and say that i dont know a ton about the cars yet, ( i know, its hard to believe haha) but im learning, and the zex wet is a great kit for a person who does not know much about nitrous and the details of their car... not to say you dont... just remember that the bottle cost money to refill... about 30-50 bucks for about 1 1/2 minutes - 3 minutes of spray. if you like to have fun, it will cost money. so dont run your wallet dry by getting the kit and have no money to fill your tank (i speak from experience on this one) all i can say is do your homework and do it well!! on wet and dry systems any everyother aspect of the nitrous systems... good luck.

ps what car is this nirtous going to be in? give a little car info.

YIKES where do you live?

i pay $3.00/lb and even at the track they only charge $5 , you should still have 2-3 lbs when your empty, don't let them charge for a full 10 lbs. i usually pay about $21 to fill it up

but yeah, spray it you'll love it. you can't get any better performance for the price, you can always sell it if you don't like it or change mind for damn near what you paid for it, it's not like you HAVE to use it every time you race.

i only go through about 1 bottle a month maybe 2 if i hit the streets a few times. 80-100 shot will knock off 1 - 1.5 seconds ET from your current setup , thats like 10-15 car lengths
