How many people around here on MX-3.com have a Nitrous Oxide System?
How much money did you pay?
How much of a shot are you running?
What engine is it on? KLDE? KLZE? K8?
(Stupid Question) Does there have to be any parts that have to be made specifically for the MX3?

Pretty sure he has it on his ze now. Blue bullet also is running a 75shot on his ze, and a few more I cant think of right now

So does anyone have any advice for anyone who wants to get Nitrous on a KLDE engine?

Im about to install my ZE in my SE and plan on running a low shot around 40, just so i make sure the engine last awhile

from what i have picked up it would be best to run a wet kit. there should be some topics on it in the forced induction forum. but run a wet kit, a 75 shot should be fine. and from riding in Ricks car let me tell you a 75 shot is f*cking fast. on a klde you might be able to run higher though. basically just hook the wet kit up into your intake after the vaf. if you want to run a dry kit you will have to place another fuel injector to put in the right amount of fuel. you might want a wideband 02 or even a a/f guage to make sure you don't run lean.

I'm running a 75 shot, with a dry kit converted to a custom wet setup. You can get a used dry kit for around $350-400. If you want to go wet they cost a little bit more but are safer in the long run and will yield more power. Honestly tho nitrous is cool and all, but it isn't a long term solution the refills add up quite quickly at ~$75 a fill.

I used to run a 50 NitrouExpress wet with my K8, but I sold the kit after I got my ZE...

I'm still considering running a kit on my KLDE, but like someone said earlier, 75 a refill, adds up quick. I personally would never go with a dry kit.

with a full turbo kit and group buy on the horizon... I definately wouldn't be going NO2.

Very true

Though a NO2 kit might run someone around 400-600'ish, how much for that turbo kit?

I'm running a 40 shot on my ZE. Its a NOS dry kit but I have a fuel pump(walbro 255) and a AFPR. A refill only costs me 35 bucks.

BTW, the 40 shot is plenty fast. I'm probably going to try the 55 next.

I only paid 250 for the kit, got it off of PT.

$35 US is a good deal, every place in my city price fixes their N20. It varies between $7.48-$7.50 a pound = ghey
