I myself went with the Zex wet kit for my car.
I read lot of reviews on this system and liked what I saw, so thats what I got.
Very simple hook-up and install.
Some people don't like Zex, but for me, it has been awesome.
Have yet to take it to the track, so I cant tell you what I run with it, but going by the the sotp meter, It outperforms all of the other mods on my car combined.

I originally bought the Zex #82023 wet kit. And I recently purchased a NOS big shot injection plate with solenoids. I plan on replacing the NOS solenoids with NX ones and i'll be re-wiring the ZEX control box to fire the NX solenoids... So im gonna have one bastardized kit. BUT.. I dont have to worry about some stupid micro-switch

wet or dry is the biggest factor on which you choose

wet do a NX

dry do a NOS

edelbrock kits are the exact same thing as the NOS kits, nos patent ran out , so edelbrock duplicated it

i also see that trick flow now has a nitrous kit , and it appears to be based on NOS
it's pretty much at the point that whatever color bottle looks best w/ your car is the way to go. they are all virtually identical comparing wet/wet or dry/dry

I am trying to decide between Venom vcn 1000 drykit because of its computer feature or the Zex dry kit. I really dont know wether a wet or dry kitwould be better for me since im only doing a 100 shot. I like zex because of all of the things you can buy for it. Why does everyone like NX?

i prefer dry

not sure why the new craze for NX, jumping on the bandwagon i think.

lots of theories out there, not sure i buy into them though , you can buy the same accessories for any manufacturer.

I choose NOS because I have been using them in several cars over the last 10+ years and have had no problems
