Its an option when you post a poll, i like it b/c you can see how many posts the people have that are voting and also see if they vote b/c they might wanna sell a product rather then just what they honestly have experience, of one being better then another. -jim

The MAF kit is awesome, but for 100-150 the NX Single nozzle kit (20920-10) will suffice... It's much cheaper, and is still a great kit.....

Well this is interesting, I would have figured that we would have ranked a bit higher... Im curious how we are going to rate in the next month when our re-worked power ring and sol bracket hit the market.. The pr is shorter for the guys that are having fitment issues, and the sol bracket is much easier to deal with.. Anyways, we appreciate the votes we do have from our loyal TNT fans

Does this mean the prices are going up?

Please say no! TNT is on my list for the fall if I can afford it.

I run the single nozzle kit too & have sprayed a 200 shot through it a few times, it's definately a good kit, I am going to upgrade to a MAF kit soon, but that's just so I can go to a 2 stage system.

I just noticed you can also see there last activity date (when they last loged in) and time.So if someone registered a bunch of bogus names to fix the vote it would say something like.0 post,the same register date and they would probley all be registered with in a few minutes of each other.
Man thats a sweet option.LOL

Since this thread is going, is the NX MAF kit noticable under the hood? I know the MAF says N.X.- is there a replacement for that which has more of a sleeper effect?????

The MAF kit is very noticable under the hood. When my car was stock internal I didn't want to run a MAF kit because it was so visible. Now with the H/C & Dual's, my car has no sleeper effect at all, so I'm going to switch to a MAF kit.

I just like the clean look. I've got H/C, Headers, cutout, etc so it doesn't sound stock, but I hate all the wires all over the engine bay. I'm getting ready to do a coil pack relocation and shaved valve covers to help clean it up too. So which of these kits has the cleanest look? (I know DP kits are clean, but I'm not spraying that much so it's out.)

I think just about any of the kits can have a clean install... as long as you take the time to route the wires and braided lines appropriately. Some guys use wire looms to help give it that factory look. The main thing is to keep everything away from direct heat.

I vote for the nx kit. When the jets say 150 hp, they mean 150rwhp. And the times show it. I shaved 1.2 sec and gained 14 mph with a 125 shot.

I thinki i'll go with either the NX starter kit of TNT F1, maf kit and nozzle kits are just a little to much for my needs right now. i'm new to N20 so i'll start off 'slow'. Thanks for everyones advice so far though!

I'm also looking for a kit and just curious as to why people don't like the Zex kit? To my it seems it is by far the easiest setup since everything is packed into a little box and no need for an activation switch as it learns what WOT is on your car(unless you feel this can fail since it isn't a microswitch). I'm just going for the absolute stealth install so you cannot see anything at all and I'm hoping to do that with the Zex kit.

I'd be doing a 150 shot tops but not until I got a new fuel pump in the GTO, more than likely I'll be doing around a 100 shot. So with a 100 shot pill am I looking at 70 whp or closer to 90-100 whp? Anyone have experience with this?

Im gonna vote for TNT since I havent used any of Cold Fusions stuff yet. But interesting to me is how many voters for NX have absolutely no clue as to how the systems work on any vehicle, whether stangs, LS1s LT1s etc. Me I personlay have used Plenty of NX kits, Plenty of NOS kits and a few TNT kits. I think the parts in TNT systems are better than some of the cheasy plated fittings NX uses, Most of the time the fittings wont even screw into the noids far enough. Solinoids are solinoids as this argument will always be out. TNT deosnt do any fancy advertising on there boxes, but who needs a prettied up box, Its the kit that matters. NX makes an awesome system and Im not voting against them just because I cant stand one of them . Im going by track records here with my stuff, and my own PERSONAL experiences with all of my cars, and every one of them Ive had nitrous on. I personaly love the NOS dry systems, but am disapointed in the hp and tq they lack over TNT and NX stuff on the same hp levels. As soon as I get out of this hole Ive dug myself into the last few years, Im gonna be testing all the systems, including the unmentioned Dyno Tune stuff.

BTW, I have a NX system now, and no way would I get rid of it, i like there stuff too much to sell it, Im just more partial to TNT. I like the design better.
