Nitrous...Which Kit to Buy???

Stangin_88 · 08-03-2001, 12:19 PM

I am about ready to buy a nitrous kit. I would like to have a dry system with 150 - 175hp shot. Which kit do you all recommend? I have been hearing NOS quite a bit lately...

I've been doing some research into nitrous systems too. I've heard nitrous express is a solid company, Edelbrock's making a name for themselves in the n2o biz, and that NOS has been having quality probs since being bought by Holley. I still don't know what kit to get, except I'm looking at a 125-150 dry kit.
Good luck w/ your choice!

NOS....oh, you mean "noss"???

hehehe

I dunno, if they went the way that FlowTech did (aka BLOWtech), another Holley-bought-out company, I'd have my own doubts. I can't substantiate any claim with NOS either way, but I have been truly disappointed with FlowTech products. Another choice in the nitrous oxide stuff is CompuCar. I have one of their catalogs from Norwalk, and their systems seem pretty impressive. Nowhere near the size of NOS (they have Holley backing them for God's sake), but the guys at the CompuCar manufacturer's midway at Norwalk were cool. Just my .02 on this.

What about Nitrous Works? Anyone hear if they are good or not.

My NOS #05115 kit hasn't let me down yet. The only problems I have had is I had to rebuild the solenoids, but they were over 4 years old, and I got a tank of bad gas. Other than that I have never had a problem with my kit.
