So i graduate next week on thursday.. and i'll be getting quite a bit of grad money. I've been doing a fair amount of research on NOS and how it works and how to install it all and it seems pretty straight forward. Definitely think I'm going to pull the trigger on it right after Graduating!

Questions:
Will i need to buy a WOT switch, or does the white wire coming off of the Zex NMU/Solenoids do that?
How long will a 10lb bottle of N20 last?
Is it worth the extra money for a purge kit?

Hoping to spray soon!

That comes with the ZEX kit.

How long will a 10lb bottle of N20 last?

No idea, I'm still using mine. $40 to fill for me.

Yes, better safe than sorry.

^Well, sort of; I'm just down in Greenville, SC. I've actually been to the last TWO locations of theirs for a couple of dyno days. Hell, I had my Civic dyno'd there twice at both events; even way back when Joseph Davis was their tuner. This was well before I boosted the thing to 400whp :



^Notice the old address.

Yes, still running. Although I did have the blow down kit empty my bottle. Got a little hot in the trunk! It was quite hilarious after I stopped crapping my pants. I've ordered the new gasket so should be back running soon. People were taking a ton of pics at Freshwise in Charlotte last weekend but I can't find any of them posted. One guy was making a video but I can't find anything. I need to take my own and get some part numbers. I've been so busy with work and a 2 yr old!

that zex kit brings back good memories..i had a similar universal kit in my IS350 when i still had it. running a wet system 75 shot with fuel enrichment. you sir are brave for having that kit exposed even in the engine. i had my nitrous solenoid hidden under the air intake manifold on the bottom and all the lines blacked out and hidden. dont forget that over 50 shot to check and make sure your tires and suspension can handle the extra power load. and a purge kit is required by probably every race track out there and is for your own safety.

^LOL, my "backwoods" 1/8th mile track couldn't care less either.

Have we got any good passes yet on that 75 shot? What rear tire you running?
