Default Problem after spraying for first time...

Finally got all of the components working at one time and went for a first full out test run (had tested lightly with just the Zex unit to make sure it was functioning). One big problem... how do I get this grin to go away?

Seriously though, here's my experience:

It seriously felt like I was driving this car for the first time again. WOW!!! That thing flies!! Only issue I encountered was that when speed shifting, the clutch was slipping like crazy. It held real well when I would give it a second to grip before going full throttle again. Anyone else have similar experience? Any work around other than a new clutch. If I go with a stiffer clutch, do I have to worry about the output shafts?

I'm taking it in to LG for headers and a tune in a week, so would prefer not to have to do a clutch right away also.

Thanks to Beer99c5, Nitro Dave, Ricky and Robert for all of the input during my install. This was my first nitrous install and they really helped to get the ZEX unit, window switch, FPSS, bottle warmer, bottle opener, purge all working together.

I have the zex kit in my ride.
I don't have the same ball's as you though. My first time I just did the 75 shot, then the 100 and finally the 125.
I don't have a a clutch, so I can't help you there, but I can tell you that my fuddle conveter probably doesn't like it much.
