Anyone have a NOS kit installed in their car in the Philadelphia area? Only place I know of that I might trust is IMPO, anyone have experience with shops in the area? I want to get a kit with pills, wot switches etc

 

Where are you from in the Philly area?

 

I'm actually from Bensalem (outside ne philly), about 20 minutes from king of prussia, I live right off the pa turnpike old exit 28, dunno new exit #s heh. I used to work in west chester, downingtown exit or something, how bout u where u at?

 

Well back on topic!!! I got a Bracket today off Ebay. With a little polishing it will be perfect. Here are some pictures of it sitting in my hatch!

Looks nice, good luck on the set-up.

 

Thanks. Anyone who has install the nitrous feed line. Where did you run it? Which side of the car? where did you penetrate the firewall? I want to run a 4 gauge wire and the lines. Any suggestions would be helpful? Thanks.

 

looks good, but is that where ur going to put it?

wouldnt it look better centered?

 

I work in Malvern at the Great Valley Corp. Center. I work for a J&J company called Centocor. Biological Pharma.

 

I know it well actually working on a Centocor project as we speak!
Gonna pm ya real quick

 

You guys should really use PM instead of hijacking the post!! I will probably center the bottle. It was just easier to mount it there if I was going to manually turn the bottle on and off. I just got a remote opener so I will end up center mounting it.

 

automatic openers r a must....
the one problem is now im gonna have a lot of switches!!

 

I must say, my only disappointment with my zex system is the remote bottle opener. It isn't strong enough and doesn't close the bottle all the way. My car sits all week and is only driven on the weekends and a lot of times my bottle will be empty in just a matter of a week or two with only about 2-3 sprays. It has a very weak motor. So I reverted to closing it manually for now. I think I am going to look into the nos bottle opener. Outside of that I love my zex kit!

 

Argh! I'm not happy to hear that, Edretti Years ago on my present SE-R I ran NOS but never had an electric opener on it. Instead I just left it open and ready, 24/7. No matter what it would last me a month, month after month.

I was hoping that the nitrous companies would have had this down pat by now. NOS told be back then (before they were bought by Holley and still located in Cypress, CA) that their solenoids had rubber O-rings that the N2O would leak by. The kicker when I talked to them about their remote bottle valve was that it was the same way and if you really wanted to secure the nitrous, you still had to manually open and close it *sigh*

Anybody have experience with other remote bottle valves?

 

Any of you Z owners know of a reputable race shop or installer for NOS in the LA or OC area?

 

DIY
im actually enjoying it

 

I just have to say this is an absolute AWESOME post and it's great to see someone out there putting the time together to make something like this happen!


If you don't mind I am going to pass it on to a few more boards. If you do email me and I will remove them

 

SP engineering


Or Autolink in Arcadia.

 

OMG, SP Engineering is charing 800 dollars just for the labor for a direct port system. OUCH!

 

I read Page 1 till dis recent one - on a single sitting. I didn't move off the chair 'til I was absolutely done reading everything. Wow, u guys really have a lot of time typing these info... hahaha as I have a lot of time readin it.

I'm interested in getting NX. I'm going 2 order mine tomorrow. Hmmm looked @ their website, tryin 2 figure out d best of wat NX offer. Definitely goin w/ their 75shots. Biggest concern isn't getting d system, but rather d costs of installation & where 2 place d bottle (thinking of getting d composite bottle). 1st 1/2 of d trunk (sound system enclosure) & need my 2nd 1/2 for my other things i.e. bags, etc. Maybe I can fit something in betw. d pillar brace.

I've read d stories bout ZEX to incl. their cust. svc. & reput. in helping customers. IMHO, cust. svc. makes or breaks d company. U can have d best system in d world, but if u have a terrible cust. support, I won't endore or use ur company's product(s).

Gonna call them tomorrow and see the whole thing... will post more later down after installation. Will check back for response and other information.
