i was going to go turbo but money problems so im going to put notrous on my motor. my question is i have a 60 mm throttle body, could air intake and was wandering if i need to change anything to my motor to run a 50 or 75 shot. i have a zex kit and was just wandering and how long should i exspect my motor to last. i wont be using it all the time maybe just once or twice a month.thanks for any help you guys can give me.

I have the ZEX wet kit and I've run about 6 bottles through it on the 55 shot with no problems except the clutch was gone by the third bottle. I also have the 60mm and an AEM CAI. I recommend going with the NGK iridium IX's #BKR7EIX which is a heat range colder just for safety. BTW NOS isn't necessarily cheaper, by the time you add the bottle heater and all the accessories, refills, and having to plan to use it so you can make sure the bottles warm they can be about equal. Just my opinion...

from what i've read, the 55 shot will be almost perfect.

75 should be good too, but might be just a LITTLE too much..

I upped to the 65shot at the track once but had to get the car towed b/c my dumba$$ tried to warm up a pair of BFG drag radials...no clutch slip + lotsa grip = broken axle.....

i ran a 75shot before i had the turbo, ran fine, even the day the bottle pressure was abovce 1800psi.

was running an 85 shot on mine before I went with the srt turbo. Went through about 5 bottles on it. Bout the only problem I had with it was my clutch. Also my fuel pump was too weak for it and when I started spraying my fuel pressure would drop to about 20psi for a split second. Usually had the bottle pressure around a grand.

I say go no higher than a 75 unless you plan on changing things around.

Also I didn't buy a kit. Got a used bottle and some lines from a freind for 200 all togeather. Got a used fogger nozzle and some pills, then bought a new bottle heater and a pressure guage and hooked it all up through a push-button switch. All togeather cost me about 400.
Other good things to have would be things like a fuel pressure safety switch and a wot switch with an activation switch

Also usually a decent refill price from what I've seen is usually around $4 a lb. ($40 for a 10lb refill).
