It cost's about $2.50 to $3.00 a pound. So about 30 dollars the first fill but after that you should have a little left in the bottle as long as you refill the bottle about every 10 to 12 runs running a 75 shot, or at least that is been my experience.

The best one is the one you chose because I am sure everyone has a different opinion on that but I have an edelbrock but you should get one with a fuel pressure cut off switch and mine did not come with one.
The NOS kit is a good choice or your app.

BTW: I would get a dry kit.

Damn!!! I have to pay 4.25 a pound!!!

NoSlow5.0 · 06-27-2001, 01:24 PM

If i was getting N2O i would check out the ZEX system. It uses bottle pressure to manage delivery so that you get a constant pressure at all times until you are out of juice. No selinoids.

You should look at NX or Nitrous Works

86GT · 06-28-2001, 12:30 AM

NOS Big shot, or dry system, reliable, good quality, excellent service. Damn I sound like a salesman, but seriously, I'm very happy with my system.

1BAD89 · 06-28-2001, 02:29 AM

What the heck! You want a 30lb. bottle. That would be 10 feet tall. Have you seen he 15lb bottle, it's huge, to fill up a 30lb. would be like 90+dollars.

exgmguy · 06-28-2001, 02:03 PM

Not to mention add 50 plus pounds.

And the Zex kit does have a solonoid. It's concealed inside the brain box.

Stang Runner · 06-28-2001, 08:26 PM

I would not need to refill as much and 50Lbs will not kill me my car is rather light Fiber pin on hood and fiber hatch. And I would look cool the the back if it would fit. Can you use them alot in a rowor will it like kill the car??? Or could I get 2 10Lbs and hook them up at the same time??

1BAD89 · 07-03-2001, 12:46 AM

Yeah two 10lb'ers would look sooooo bad *** . I'm just going to go with one 10lb, go look at a 15lb. one they are huge!

Skyman · 07-03-2001, 02:02 AM

I really like the ease of installation and everything on the ZEX kit. If I was to do it over I would get that. Only problem is 125hp max.
