I've heard the NX kit is best, offers more flexablilty and more add on support, for example: Nx's offers upgrade kits for their nitrous systems. BTW, i'd stick with the turbo fund if i were you.

I have the Edelbrock wet kit #71820 (universal 50,60,70 shot). Still ironing out the kinks (I've got an auto, need an rpm window switch), but the only complaints I have are that the n20 feed line is a little short (14 ft), the bottle brackets are a bit of pain when you're putting in the bottle after getting it filled, and the electrical diagram in the instructions were mislabeled. I wanted to route the line under the car, but didn't think it would reach. Going through the interior (passenger side) worked fine.
I would also suggest a bottle heater no matter which kit u go with.

As far as the original question, I have been researching lately and the ZEX kit seems to be the safest with the easiest install.

Find someone for me on this forum who has blown their motor with a 75 shot and then let me know.

NX is the best IMO...just look at SpdRcrChk's dyno....that was with no tuning and her a/f is still fine. Thats proof right there that the NX wet kit does exactly what NX claims. 100% bolt on, safe, and designed to work with all stock timing, ignition, and fuel systems.

People who like winning A LOTof races without spending thousands on a motor that isnt worth a sh*t to begin with.

Odd...i mean i dunno i'm around boosted cars all day, work at a shop etc and have one myself...and have seen noooooo problems from any that we have tuned or put together, no matter how hard they were driven (with the exception of the RSX with the smoked clutch)

however the two Nitrous cars that we helped run with (granted both were only 50 wets) had problems shortly after a few good runs...

It's all down to preference, eitehr haul *** in spurts or haul *** in every gear...i prefer every gear

Who ever said you couldnt spray in every gear? Honestly I think you're just making ignorant smart a$$ comments on purpose and I hate to act like my ***** are the biggest here when I know they're not, but I think I'd probably smoke your Altima. Have any vids or time slips?
