I have a zex wet kit. The ecu can compensate for up to a 100 shot on a v8,75 on a v6. I run the smallest fuel jet to reduce pooling of fuel and use my tuner to up wot fuel to max to prevent the lean spike. Nx does make the best system out there but I haven't had a single problem with my zex system.

Please someone explain to me how any of you have determined who makes the best system? The only components that matter are the exact same. Sounds like the same kind of tards that claim one place has better N2O than another, just makes me wanna smack people.

Don't listen to the people who just shoot through the MAF and let the computer try to get the fuel right, use a tuner.

As Ryan stated there are no best/worst N2O systems they are all the same.

BTW you should never run a wet kit with no tuning, you're asking for trouble doing so. Even dry kits (which are slightly safer) should have some tuning because reguardless of how you put it, your A/F ratios are being changed and while your ECU can "adjust" it's not going to do so as accurately as it should.

those are the size of the orifice's in the nitrous/fuel jets measured in thousandths of an inch.

Backward J, wet is safer than dry.

75-125 shot wet without tuning has been ran successfully on a few cars, but I would rather be on the safer side

And I think having an extra solenoid control the fuel, as opposed to a system that's already providing fuel is LEAST safe, when it's not necessary. One extra part that can fail, and only lead to worse failures. If a nitrous solenoid craps out, then you just don't have any nitrous, if the fuel solenoid craps out, then you don't have an engine.

Well, most people are looking at nitrous as a cheap alternative. In which case I don't see most of the people buying new injectors & pump to make a dry kit that "safe". Of course with everything you have a chance of something failing , this is why they make safety switches
