choosing a right wet kit

ok, so now i know i need a wet kit, it begs the question which kit to get. and what i need to look for. what size bottle should i get? should i get a nitrous pressure gauge? how risky is it to get a used kit? where do i get a re-fil when its out?
is there anything i should watch out for? should i stay away from NOS?no that last one is a joke.

Get the nx wet kit made for our car, there is a generic kit for 4 cyl.
You may want to get one or two gauges, and a bottle heater, but all that adds up. I would just get the kit because it sounds like you are rarely going to use, if you do at all.

IMO zex or nx, both are very good kits. at minimum get a bottle pressure guage and bottle heater to get the most out of them. both come with 10lb bottles. Used kits are fine as long as the wiring isn't that butchered. Just make sure that it comes with everything.

ive had NOS, ZEX, and NX and i think out of the three i liked the NX kit the best. im not running anyhting right now sold it all a year ago but im planning on going back with a NX kit and run about a 50 shot. ive got e-manage so ill probably run 75 after a while when i richen it up a bit. but just get yourself a good used NX kit or a brand new one. jsut dont get too happy with it or youll burn your **** up! i speak from personal experience! 3 years ago i burned my pistons up.... how? why? i dont know... just dont spray alot unless your running rich as hell!
