Default nitrous safe shot

found a nitrous safe shot kit from zex kit is pretty nicely poriced and provides a 35hp shot. also when ur ready kit can be upgraded to a full 200hp shot for half the price of a regualr full kit. anyone ever use this kit before? any pros/cons?

I wouldn't expect a ton of gains from it I think most people go with a 50/75 shot and that is considered small, also don't think just b/c its a 35 shot that you can shortcut a lot of the safety stuff for n20. IMO there is no "safe shot" of N20, unless you have the car properly setup for it and possible adjust the plugs and tune if recommended so nothing breaks.

from what ive read 35, even 50 isnt nothing on these cars, 75 is wen you start to feel something...ive always heard the safest short of half of the stock horsepower, so if you have a 300hp car, then you should be safe using a 150 shot...so i personally thinkg 100shot is good...although weather you throw a 35 shot or a 250 shot, you still have to have all the saftey options, window switch, etc..
