At least you gave him some reasons. lol I have a Zex DRY system, easy to install, extremly safe (no pooling like wet), and works of the tps sensor. I dropped my car from a 13.2@102 down to a 12.3@114 mph. I have no problem with wet systems, I jiust hate when peopole post "do not go dry" or "do not go wet" without giving any reasons. They both have pros and cons..nitrous is all about the tune. Do it right everything will be fine.
fair enough, just what i have heard, dry is easy to install, i have heard of people just sticking it into the intake tube with a button that sprays a mist into the intake, the problem with this is the no2 literally dries up by the time it hits the cylinder, it would be like injecting gasoline into the air filter housing rather than the head, it would turn into a fume and will not do as much, the wet systems definetly cost more, they have an adapter that goes in under your fuel injectors, put your fuel injectors on one, and the no2 injector on the other side (kinda like a y adapter) the wet system, sprays pressure ized gas into the cylinder, presuized to the point it is a liquid, works kinda like liquid nitrogen, making the air in the cylinder super cold, so it works many different ways, but u also need to hook thoes injectors into your computer, i don't know if u can get an adapter for the plug for your fuel injector, so they both fire at the same time for the same length....

That's a great explanation, and one that adds to the original posters question with info they can use. I have also heard of people sticking the nozzle into the intake, some for stupid reasons others for the simple reason of cooling the air on a supercharged/turbo car as a means of finding/making more power. They even sell kits for this reason. A dry system, I speak from my Zex kit, works of fuel supply, and will vary the amount of nitrous to the amount of fuel available....this saves from the dreaded lean conditon..boom! I have my car equipped that the nitrous is only fed to the car when the tps (throttle postion sensor) is fully depressed. SO this way you can drive around with it on and it only kicks in when fully depressed..no need to arm. You set a window switch to shut the gas off if you go past a certain rpm. I don't use this as once you lift of the throttle..no gas. This is a great system for when I race..I rev the car to about 4k.....then drop the hammer and bury the throttle..nitrous kicks in and bang..your gone. Fun to hear and watch..I have some video on my site. Again, thanks for an explanation to your reason, I always find it important to get both sides of a story and to make your decision from there. HAve a great nite!
personally id go with nitrous expresses kit. adjustable from 30-200hp. i have a friend runnin it with it set around 175 on his otherwise stock (except for flowmasters, full lengths, and MAF) 91 lx . hes juiced it hundreds of times, still holdin up great! he also has a 255lph fuel pump, fuel regulator and 24lb injectors, which is why his is doing so great. and by the way, i REALLY dont mean to sound like an ass or anything, but call it nitrous! or N20, or the nuke, or juice, just anything but NOS. thats what all the ricer kids call it, its sooo annoying. NOS is just a brand that makes the product, not the product itself... once again, no offense intended!

i notice u were talking about refering to it as nos, i am curious if i refered to it as that, i know it's a bad habit i am trying to kick, everyone i know has a civic or honda of some sort so i am used to calling it nos, but i am slowly changing to nitrous or no2

Running a 200 shot on a relatively stock car is suicide..can it be done, sure...a time bomb is waiting to happen. I have a ton mor emods then your friend, run 30 injectors, 255 in line pump, 2 deegree cooler plugs and still leaned out the car on the dyno and at the track. So as I initially posted..the tune is important. I agree with the nosss/nawss thing, I never correct people, only at shows when they say, "do you have nawss" I tell them know it's not an import I have nitrous. lol One other thing people mess up: N2O is the scientific name not N02. Good post.
I also have the Zex kit and am currently using the 100 shot with my set-up with absolutely no problems so far. I have also gone 2 degrees cooler plugs and set the timing back to factory 10 degrees to be on the safe side, until I get a dyno tune session. Dry or wet they both have there pros and cons. I've been using this kit for over a year now and having a ball with it.

1990 mustang GT 5.0 all white auto tranny. Pretty much stock for now except flowmaster mufflers. I can't wait to get back and work on my mustang . I miss laying under the car and wrenching, then having my hand slip and smack myself in the face.
I actually bought mine on E-Bay about 2yrs ago. All the installation instructions were with the kit and was fairly easy to follow. It took me and my brother abour 2hrs in the driveway to completly install the kit. (most of the 2hrs was spent on routing wires and mounting the control box) There was a great tech instruction posted here by a fellow mustanger doing the Zex install. It had great step by step pictures and instructions. I used this as a guide myself and it turned out to be very helpful. I'm not sure if it's still here but if you can't find it, I actually saved it, and would send it to you if need be.
As for plugs for E7 heads, I know a lot of people using Autolite 24 (1 step colder) and the Autolite 23 (2 steps colder), there's also NGK (UR55) 2248(5) and (UR6) 7773 (6), and probably many other brands that would suit this application. If your going to purchase the kit, I would also recommend getting the bottle pressure guage and maybe later purchasing a bottle warmer (w/ thermostat)and a purge kit. All these extra's aren't really nessasary, but they do ensure optimum performance. The automatic bottle opener is really convenient and lots of fun also.

i agree... how my friends motor is still holding up is beyond me, but it is! youre absolutely right, your tune is the most important thing!! i wouldnt spray 175 to a stock motor either,but hey... its working! lol
