I spray on any gear as long is it is in wide open throttle.

Having sold the UEGO may I reccomend that you DO NOT go with their product? The UEGO takes slower sampling rates than many of the other companies and he connectors break during install . Happened to me twice on customers' cars.
If you look at sampling rates and accurate range, the best currently on the market are the PLX Devices units. the read fully and accurately 10.0:1 -20.0:1.
Just food for thought... not to mention the PLX depending on options can be cheaper than the UEGO.

Rep Power: 0 b18c1boy i have seen people shot over 40 on a k without any fuel system, but they would benefit especially with a 75 if they had a fuel return setup with injectors, fpr, fuel pump instead of the returnless setup stock

Rep Power: 0 ^^with a safc, version 2 or not, you can tune on the dyno with it and yes it will run better. The only real purposeful way to add in a larger fuel pump is to make it a return system, but you dont need to do that because the NX kits are designed to work on stock fuel systems. Good start on the kill list.

Rep Power: 0 I believe that he's gotten over on type-S's and h22s .... I personally have smoked 2 type s's in the same day and that was running a Zex 75 shot with no warmer or pressure guage .... And as for the "hope you dont misshift" crap, I was spraying on a run and hit a patch of wet asphalt and bounced of the rev limiter and absolutely nothing happened ( other than scaring the crap outta me ) .... I mean, I wouldn't do it just for fun but sometimes mistakes happen ... doesn't mean your car is gonna blow up ... I've been spraying for almost 2 years now and other than oil changes and a new battery, my Civic has never even seen the shop for any repair ....

Rep Power: 0 ^^people always pay so much attention to the hp numbers....what they dont think about is, when it comes to nitrous, its not all about the hp. Its about the torque. Nitrous gives you A LOT of torque, and its the torque that moves you down the track for the most part, not the hp.

Rep Power: 0 like I said.....I don't know about others systems but NX on a dyno show that with a 50 shot doubles the torque in our cars! on the wheels! cuz I have a friend he dyno tested with and with out and he made like 105 wtq and then with 950 psi he made 203 wtq or something like that! with a 50shot!

That's exactly why I've decided to go NX instead of ZEX.
