TNT vs. NX
Hey guys I am looken at gettin a nitrous kit and have a few questions that i havent been able to find answers for. What is the benefit to the TNT F-1 Nitrous Kit vs the NX single nozzle kit? It looks like the TNT may be a better system because of the power ring. Also what is some of the basic nitrous safety precaution to take when puttin one on a car? I think I am leaning toward the TNT power ring instead of NX because it looks like it would be a nicer install. Any input would be appricated guys. And lets not dog me, i am wanting to join the nitrous crowd!!!!

Rob,
Both systems are nice systems.However the single nozzle and the power ring kit are not really in the same class.NX makes a maff kit to compete with the power ring.In my opinion the maff kit is a nicer system than the power ring.
As far as the single nozzle versus the power ring kit.They are two different apples.They will both work exactly the same but the TNT kit will have a extra nozzle and a power ring.

Both these kits you are asking about do the same thing, one the Single nozzle NX is much easier to install than the TNT part and at a lesser cost. If money is not the issue I recommend the MAF kit, single stage kit, that can be upgraded to dual stage later if you want to. There is no modifaction of any kind to the car with this kit, easy installation clean looks. It fits the car perfectly. Also includes a TPS Switch.

OK so basically there the same and the TNT you paying for the ring, which i think is a nice piece and i saw they were about the same price from nitro daves on the website. So i just thought i would ask, it was like 679 for a TNT kit w/10lbs bottle and the NX was about 550 w/10lbs bottle. Does anyone have pics of the power ring, and what about timing with nitrous? I only wanna run a 75 to 100 shot.
thx rob

I personally like ease of installation when choosing any parts, and would have to say that the MAF kit is probably the easiest system to install I have ever seen with the exception of maybe the Nter Cooler. You can do a search on the MAF and the F1 and see for your self which would be easier. Also, in the future if you ever modify the motor to the point of wanting to really spray a lot of nitrous the MAF can put out a total of 600hp. Just some thoughts.
