Venom......probably the best and safest setup I've ever seen.

You get what you pay for. When people cheap out on stuff like this is when they get into trouble. I don't understand why people get so cheap when buying stuff for their cars.

Im not going cheap, the other three brands are huge companies that have been making nitrous kits for just as long maybe longer than venom, venom is just a bunch of electronic bs that someone that doesnt know a dam thing about it can use. Tell me how the venom kit is worth over a thousand dollars more.

Nitrous express is the only kit to own. I've been using their kits for 5 years now, and never once had a problem. Their solenoids flow much more than the venom, NOS, Zex systems. Their solenoids are backed by lifetime garantee and the quality is top notch.

An exmaple: This is my dyno chart jetted for a 75 shot which made 87whp and 108wtq



I know its not a honda but nitrous is nitrous

The more I hear about those srt-4 the more i want one... even though its a neon, j/k seriously though i like the zex kit because theres no solenoids, its one box and the brain is capable of compensating for fuel and nitrous delivery while your spraying. stick with one of the big 3 and youll be fine.

plat, i just installed my purge kit, ran it out the front grille like you, it really makes the car look pissed, nice job

I have NOS, and I like it a lot, I know nothing of the flow, etc. But it works good

I want to get NX.. just looks easy to install and its a good price for my low budget..

Do I need to get nitrous gauge and fuel/air guage?

and also will it hurt to run regular unleaded and use nitrous?
