thats the good things about todays nitrous kits, you can run them on a COMPLETELY STOCK engine. once again, its all about using common sense, ya know? just dont spray constantly and youll be fine. as for the question about the venom kit, theyre supposed to be the best and safest kit out, waaaaay overpriced imo, but still a nice kit. if youre worried about damage to your auto tranny, i dont think there would really be any due to the fact that its not under constant "boost" like it would be with turbo or supercharging, but i could be wrong.... i drive a stick.

I think there's some misconceptions between staged nitrous and direct port.

Can anyone effectively explain it?

direct port sprays nitrous directly into your manifold, while indirect(staged) sprays it into the intake

Saturday I had my NX kit installed and I love it. I am only running a 55 shot but it is working great. I did not feel any preoblems with the clutch on the engine at all.
I recomend the kit to anyone.

How much did the Zex wet kit cost you altogether with installation "01 wings"?

Normally, the ZEX kit will un you about $550 and most shops here in Atlanta charge about $250 dollars to install it. I don't know how much they charge in Cali

So I hear that people HAVE and ARE running dry nitrous.....If this is true, what are they doing to compensate for the needed extra fuel?
