Zex Kit ?? Wet or Dry ??
Zex Kit ?? Wet or Dry ??
What is everyones opinions on the Zex kit ? I have an 02 Mustang GT pretty much stock. I am looking to run a 75 - 100 shot, but am unsure of which works best for 02 GT's. I have heard the puddle problems with plastic intakes running wet kits and the running lean issues with the dry kits, so now I am unsure if their is a safe way to run nitrous on an 02 GT ( Guidance please !)
I have been looking at the Zex kits since the claim to be the safest kit out with their Patented "all in the purple box" gimmick.
Please post anything and everything I should do (spare no minor detail), and also which kit has worked the best for 02 GT's.
I really appreciate everyones help !

Another good one is the Venom nitrous system. It hooks in through your ECU and will not activiate under any lean conditions. You can also preset different progressive settings and whatnot. It isn't cheap, but its pretty cool as far as out-of-the-box nitrous kits go.

Well the new mustangs are returnless so its all computer controlled via the fuel pressure. They made the noszle system becuase of the plastic intakes blowing up. I wouldnt know how a zex works unless it uses some sorta boost a pump to up the pressure.
i had the zex kit, it just runs pressure over the fuel pressure regulator to raise the psi of the injectors.... which adds more fuel.......... there are jets to make it richer or leaner, on the fuel pressure hookup and the nitrous hookup...........
it basically works like an nos dry kit, but with everything in the box.................
as far as if it actually does trim the psi to the fuel reg acccording to the bottle pressure i dont know if it really does or not.....
seeing as how there are jets in place, any larges scale adjustment would be impossible........
and for 99up returnless stangs, i dont see how the kit would work........... so id go with another kit, a wet kit or a direct port/nosZle kit
for the amount of nitrous your going to run, id reccomend the wet kit, and just get a window switch and a WOT switch..........
if you set the kit to come on about 3k you shouldnt have any puddling issues.................

and it can puddle if the soleniod leaks, and if you run a wet kit without a purge, you will have a bunch of fuel being dumped in with no nitrous, which can also create and extremely rich condition and possible intake backfire...........
but to answer the velocity question, that seems to be the biggest problem, just not enough velocity to swallow all the fuel and boom!
