Some basic questions: Stock LT1 and N20.........

O.k, I have searched the forums and learned what I could. I am really interested in getting a N20 kit for my car. My question is if I get a kit, is everything I need included safety wise?

I plan on running 75-100 shots. No more for now. I have looked at a few kits online and I am not sure what to get. Zex, NOS, NX, wet and dry, I am very confused.

What is easier to install?

I also live in California, not sure if some kits would pass and others wouldn't.

A basic driving question also. When you use N20, when do you acually spray? Say your doing the 1/4 mile somehwere, when do you spray and how long does each shot last for?

Thank you for any help. It would be great to have this all cleared up.

I personally prefer wet kits. As far as safety stuff,window switch,fpss etc,they are seperate.

you dont spray "shots",you spray a shot of nitrous for x amount of time.
With my car,i spray 150-175 hp shot and start to finish of the 1/4 mile.

Depending on what hp you are jetted for depends on how long the bottle will last.

my engine is stock,and i have been running a 150 shot for just about 2 years,and just stepped up to a 175. I have a good fuel pump and good ignition. I also have been messing with nitrous for about 10 years,and i wouldnt recommend what im doing to newbies.

Sorry,cant help ya with the cali thing.

How do you deal with emissions, with the wet kit? I was gonna get the nx kit but then i heard it won't pass with it. Only with a dry kit.

Only kit with a CARB EO number is made by NOS. It is a dry kit. If you go that route, you may want to consider quality injectors....
