Default should I buy the TnT power ring

I got the chance to buy the tnt kit brand new for 800.00 with warmer and purge. I have herd that it can be difficult to install,that is the power ring. Also I'm not familiar with tnt products should I go ahead and buy it

TNT makes very good kits. I bought the power ring seperately as I already had a nitrous kit and wanted to clean things up a little bit with either a maf kit or power ring. I had no problems installing the power ring, haven't used it yet, but it's installed.

It's a good kit. The install can be a little diffucult, but it isn't that bad. Take your time with it and you'll be fine.

I'd go ahead and buy it. You may have to trim your lid alittle but it's not to bad. It's a good quality kit for sure.

If you have the room for the power ring, it's a nice piece. I didn't.

I bought a Seperate TNT power ring to go with my NX Kit for my 2001 C% Corvvette.

X-Trooper, what do you mean YOURS didn't go on???? What problems did you have?

I knwo they fit Vettes because I have seen them on before?

Just curious

The space between my Halltech carbon fiber air bridge and throttle body is a pretty short distance. It would just have been too tight of a fit for the ring. The silicone pieces would have been barely wide enough to accomodate the hose clamps, so I decided against it.

Now that Nitro Dave has announced that he's coming out with his own N2O plate, I'm going to go with one of them. It's working fine as it is, but I'm just not crazy about having my nozzle mounted in the silicone hose coupling.

I got mine from Dave, it was an older TNT unit, but still fine. I hope it works, if not I am sure he will let me send it back from a credit toward his nos plate.

I think it will work as my installer specifically told me he liked the tnt ring and that is the only reason I bought one.

Thanks Trooper.

I am trying to determine bottle locations now. The trunk is fine, but I have such a pretty aluminum bottle holder I hate to hide it.
