I have had the standard 50-150 shot (NOS) nitrous kits on 6 different 87-93 stangs and NEVER had ANY problems with them whatsoever. I have NO experience with any other kit but would trust NOS forever.

I have NOS fogger set-up, havent used it yet....but cant wait. NOS and NX both to be the ones on top. I personally like wet kits, just run a window switch and puddeling problems will be non existant. Takes a lot of the worries of runnin lean out of the question.

NX for really bro. Their HP numbers are THE most accurate. Nitrous Express says that their numbers are within 1hp of what the setup is supposed to run. So basically 150 means 150 the the Rear Wheels. They gaurentee that much I guess because they dyno tune the kit to be accurate (hp loss through drivetrane); which means you get OVER 150 sprayin' your engine

The safest way to go is probably with the Nos NOSzle kit if you cn afford the $1300 that it is. Other than that I would just got with a nice dry shot from Nos. make sure you get all the goodies though especially a bottle heater. I forgot to save up for that and I'm struggling right now cause half the time my bottle is ice cold. Gotta love the stuff though.

I went with an NX EFI wet setup, my research and preferences led me to this kit.
I have the bottle warmer, purge, remote opener, a 10# bottle and MSD window switch.

I fully expect a 150 shot to buy me a little over a full second in ET and 12+ mph in the traps. Yes, I will be spraying from the line

(my freeway testing thus far has been a blast, I can see myself having a real issue being able to hit second gear )

what was your 60 foot time? 118 trap, isnt that good for something better than a 12.2?

It was a 2.11 60' not my best. I usually avarage 1.9 or 2.0 60'. Its all good cause all i have in my car is a Lid with the 100 shot.I average 108 in the 1/4 mile; so 118 is right on.
