Nitrous On A 2003 Cl-s6 & what parts needed

Not on my car, but I've seen & installed a 75HP ZEX kit on a CL & a TL. Very basic install. Very easy. The CL can handle a 75 shot with no problems.
The ZEX dry kit is very safe when installed right.
I don't like NOS just cause it a WOT only mod. Not really good for daily driving.

Nitrous Shopping List
Whats up guys. Ive pretty much made up my mind that I want to go with nitrous for now. I know the CT Blower would be better being a daily driver but I think nitrous will satisfy what I want for now. Ive been hardcore search the forum on nitrous thread and reading up about what I need.
From what Ive read and heard from personal experience the Zex's kit is the safest kit to go with. As for what else is needed to run safe....? I'm leaning towards the dry kit, Zex part # 82011.
Thanks to our best vendor on this site, Excelerate, he gave me some help knowledge. I still would like to hear what everyone else has to say. Excelerate set me up with a package with A/F gauge, the 82011 kit, a nitrous gauge and I believe plugs. What else do I need to get started. I know I can add a A/F controller later to tune it.
Regards,

Anyone have any personal experience with both? Im still leaning toward the dry kit more for the easy install and removal. Someone told me to not even waste my money on a dry kit but from what I read hear everyone says its just fine and will kick me in my ass lol.

I'm seriously considering the Zex kit also, especially after reading that the auto. can run low 13's with a 75-shot, that's amazing. Nitrous seems to be the best for the power when I need it --- because honestly I don't shift above 3-4K RPM's unless I'm racing.

I am gonna try all three shot options with 75 being the largest, I will have timeslips and post them friday maybe sat.(thurs. if time allows) low 13s?WOW that sounds like a lot to ask 4 though, I am pretty consistent with my manual with my passes within 1/10sec. of each other,of course times vary with temperature. car sucks ass in the heat

oh and as for a dry kit being so much easier to install, that not really true. the only thing extra to install a wet kit over dry, is that u have to tap into the fuel system somewhere, many people tap in either with a banjo fitting on the fuel filter, or tap right into the fuel line that goes from the filter to the fuel rail.

^maybe U wouldnt do it. i've seen 100 + shot on 4cyl hondas too.
the reason being why people dont run them on our cars is because it is alot easier to fix a blown 4cyl honda motor than our j32's.

u need a stand alone engine management system and probably bigger injectors to properly and safely run a dry shot. wet shot is safe/easier because it mixes the fuel with the nitrous thru the fogger, so u dont need to add more fuel thru the injectors. a dry shot is only nitrous, so u need to add extra fuel thru the injectors, which would require at least an air-fuel controller (like apexi v-afc or s-afc) at minimum. running a dry shot with nothing else on the stock ecu is just a ticking time bomb..
All you need are some colder plugs.

The ZEX kit is a complete system, see post above.
