I've never had a TNT kit, but I really do enjoy my NX kit. Nothing but good things to say.
Fairly easy install. Easy to work and understand. Works better than I expected..
After all, since a 50 shot can blast my Saturn into the 13 second range (13.86), it has got to be one heck of a kit, eh? ;)

dude....are you trying to keep up with me?? hahaha, nx and tnt are about the same. they have a similar size of solenoids. nx is a much bigger company, they sell a lot of stuff and accessories. go with NX. it is easier to get and you gain the same amount of HP with either tnt or nx. but still, i'm gonna beat your ass:D :D ;) ;) :p :eek:

use either one they are both good companys just remember the tnt kit is mesured by rwhp not crank like other companies so a 100 shot is more than a nx 100

Nx rates at the wheels too.

But do not use ratings to purchase a kit, after all, i could buy a 125 shot pill, and resell it as a 100 shot.

TNT seems to jet thier kits a little leaner than NX does, this will give more power, but leaves less room for error.

both are = in quality, go with what induction method you like, single nozle, NX, TNT power ring, or my favorite the NX maf kit :)

I always hear people saying the TNT kits are tuned fat for extra safety. If NX is richer than TNT, then that is definitely wasted power.

I had an NX kit on my car, loved it. I'm going to use NX parts when I go direct port.

I heard that TNT didn't flow check they're jets back in they're early days (maybe still today), so you'd jet for a 100 shot, get something like 150-200 at the wheels. Just a rumor that I heard.

I have TNT and it was fat rich. I had it dynoed and the rwhp ratings match up real close on my car. In the sffba TnT is the kit of choice.

Yes 100 is 100 but there is a reason for 2 nozzles but I wont tell.LoL By the way I feel I have one of the best bolt on spray cars for around. I went 11.47 @122 spraying and 13.2 on motor. didnt spray till the 60 and the clutch slipped bad shifting from 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th on drag radial, 3725 race wieght. w/ TNT150 nitrous and 100 fuel jets. this combo puts my air fuel at 11.0 to 1.;)

I have had a NX kit, I liked it pretty well. I just got my new TNT F2 kit. I don't know that there would be much performance difference in the two but I just prefer the plate setup.

I wonder what would happenif u jetted both n20 jets at 150 but one fuel at 150 and one at 100

I run a TNT kit on my '96 Vette (LT4/Hotcam/A4).
With 50psi fuel, 75hp fuel jets (dual .018), 100hp nitrous jets (dual .039) and 950psi bottle pressure it netted an extra 122RWHP. AFR was 12.0:1

The TNT plate setup is good but you'll have to purchase a few extra items. The bolts that come with the kit are too short and you'll need some 90degree AN adapters to fit the nozzles on the plate for hood clearance and so the lines don't look like crap.

Also, you'll have to enlarge and shape the IAC hole in the plate to match up with the TB. It's way too small initially.

Here's a couple links with pics... you'll have to scroll down a bit..

tnt nozzels are a little better in my opinion.

also the plate setup is much better for even nitrous distribution between the cylinders. i have seen nx kit motors taken apart, and the rear cylinders always show signs of leaning out. when the nozzels are mounted behind the tb, its a straight shot into the intake, so the rear cylinders lean out like in a elbow setup.

I think Im gonna do 150 jets on one side and 100s on the other for a 125 shot

the 150 jets are good measure. just be sure that you tune it well; especially if you are running on a stock bottom end. I would also reccomend the use of a progressive controller, it will lighten the hit on your drive train.
