Zex dry nitrous kit. 75-125 hp at the crank. Pretty simple install but MUST tune accordingly , i.e. pull spark back, spot on A/F ratio doesnt hurt either. Im pretty sure sargent mac has broke into the 12's on the bottle. Thats my goal as well.

Thanks for the mention, Dave, but that's not me you're thinking of. I'm not on the bottle, at least not behind the wheel...LOL!
Ummm...However, my good friend Barry (CruzTaker) has done some remarkable things with juice. Likewise, an older memmber among us here, Jim Spraldi (who is in Miliitary service right now), also broke some new ground with juice, and likewise a built engine too. Yep, he's your ground-breaker, for sure.

There are many that have used NOS here. If used responsibly, it can be a good economical choice.
Not everyone can afford a supercharger (or want one, I guess). For those, NOS is a good option. I had it on my car until I was able to get a Trilogy for myself.
I was able to run 13.4 with a 75 shot, 4.10 gears, JLT intake and a tune.
Same as above but with a 100 shot, 13.2. These were done on a hot Florida day with factory stock tires.
On a cooler nite (60*), with a 125 shot, I ran a 12.68. This was with the factory tires, stock exhaust and torque converter.
The downfall to NOS:
1. The power is only there when the bottle is open and you have stuff in it.
2. If used irresponsibly, you can destroy a perfectly good engine.
3. It usually took 2 trips to have it filled. One for the drop off and one for the pickup.
For me, having a supercharger is like having my bottle open, full and armed at all times.

What Carfixer said, he did my install almost 2 years ago. No problems with it, just depends on how deep your pockets are with the add-ons that are available. Cost is around $3.00 per pound for the usual 10lb bottle fill. I'm running a wet kit, with fuel, and NOS spraying at the same time. There's alot of info out there , do a search and see what fits your needs the best.
