Zex is a dry kit, I've HEARD LT1's PCM's dont like big shots, but 125 should be nothing for it. From what I've researched on the ZEX it's basically a newbie kit that's suppose to be plug and play. It reads the TPS to determine the shot, something like that.

How CHEAP are we talking?

Last time I read about ZEX you had to worry about their little inbuilt solenoid sticking open or something.

lol ZEX definitely has a wet kit and it's good. My friend has sprayed over 30 bottles on his zex wet kit. His car is his daily and everything is great. I don't know why you would tell him it's garbage \= Granted, their power ratings are different. I think they rate it to the crank. Idk

I had one on my car. I liked it . Safe and easy to install. My kit is up for sale but only because I am going for direct port setup.
If your not man enough to run around with a purple bottle then hide it.

Put the bottle in the spare tire area so you dont see the ugly purple, run the lines under the motor up to the ram air box, paint the noid box black and hide it in the area a CAI filter would go.
That was just thinking out loud, dont even know if it would work, untill I had it in my hands and started installing it.
PS dont tell anyone at strats......lol!!

lol, first of all you can make any wet kit a dry kit just plug the other nozzle side. Secondly that dont work to well, peeps are always telling everyone to pull the lid and filter to prove no Nitrous, therefore it wont work to peeps that tell you to prove there is no spray under the lid. But not everyone asks about that.

The LT1 dry kits like zex and nos use a slip stream of nitrous to boost fuel pressure for fuel inrichment. I like firing mine at 15 or 1600 psi

It is a dry kit to start with. I know some guys would find it, and for them Id just tell them its there and a crappy Zex kit on a weak *** LT1. Its all the fools that wouldnt ask or know where to look that could be easy money.
