Default Thinking of going with a TNT kit

I've been thinking about going with a TNT wet kit. I want the wet kit because AFAIK you don't need to go wtih bigger injectors most of the time for a 75-150 shot. I want all the bells and whistles to keep it safe and as little wear on the drivetrain as possible. Can someone please help me out and tell me what I need as far as safety, reliability, and so forth. Is there a website somewhere where I can read up on it a little more? Thanks a lot guys.

the basic TNT F1 system is a complete kit with all the necessary hardware for a safe using of the n2o. if you are running at the track then the chief concern is that it has a blow off valve and blow down tube (included in the kit). also included for use and safety are the RPM activated switch (throttlepostition) and microswitch. for the bells and whistles texas nitrous tech carries some of it from the purge kit and automatic bottle warmer. however for anything else i'd have to lean towards NX for the remote bottle opener, upgraded nozzles, switches, lines or whatever your nitrous needs may be.

Okay, I was looking at it all today. I think I might go with an NX dry kit. I don't expect to spray over a 100 shot regularly, and maybe a 150 once I get all the safety stuff. For right now, I am leaning toward getting the following:

Nitrous Express LS1 Kit
NX bottle heater
Pressure Gauge
Fuel pressure safety switch
Blow-down fitting and tube
Purge kit (just for that "oh ****" feeling before a street race <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" /> )
NX remote bottle opener
MSD window switch
NX Nitrous Maximizer
NX carbon fiber bottle (this will come a little later)

I'm trying to get my car as light as possible, so about how much weight does all this add? Thanks a lot for your help.

Just remember NX does not sell a Dry Kit. But you can convert it to one.

Weight of the NX kit with all those goodies I would figure 35-38#'s with a full bottle. Full bottle alone is about 25lbs. Good-luck.
