Default Anybody ever hear of COMPUCAR?

So my sister is taking care of my car till I get back from Iraq and she was talking to her neibour about what I'm going to do to it when I get back in a few months. Turns out he might be able to get me a dealer price on a set of AFR's and a 9" since he works at a local speed shop. Any way he sugested a COMPUCAR nitrous system as an option to the NX stuff I was looking at. He said that they've had good luck with them. I'm just wondering if anybody has ever heard of or used their stuff before.

My brother ran a Compucar kit on his stang. It never gave him any problems and he liked it. Other than that I'm not familiar with them.

I'm running a Compucar dry kit on the GTO. Had it for about 18 months with no problems so far. Their website leaves a lot to be desired. Customer service is great if you call them on the phone.
