hey, im seriously looking at a zex wet kit for 4/6 cylinder cars. how hard is it to do a wet kit on our cars/where do i hook it up to the fuel? i would probably do a 75hp shot. http://store.summitracing.com/partde...part=CCA-82021

So i know i would have to do a fuel pressure regulator, but would i need to get a tune. its a wet kit so the fuel mixes with the nitrous. and does anyone have pics of the kit/instaling a wet zex nitrous kit on our cars.
thanks

lmao, ok ok.
i have the dry kit shooting 100shot, on a rough tune.
the price for the kit is great. with this its you either know what your doing or dont do it at all. if u do the slightest thing wrong start looking for a new engine. your trans will go out really fast too (shooting nitrous is addictive, so much power when ever you want it ).
your gonna need a tune bc u messed with the fuel, that means u need something to tune your car with. as to where to tap into the fuel, no idea, thats why i went the dry way and got a tune, just as safe as a wet shot but a bit less powerful (aprox. 5-10whp).

tlcurt

what kind of tuner did you use? an if i do the wet kit i wont need a tune, because the zex kit watches the fuel/air mixture right? the wet is only like $50 more and im looking at used ones

my dry kit also waches the fuel pressure and if it senses something wrong it will cut down on the shot. its always good to get it tuned, you will get a couple whp/wtq out of it.

im using a simple apexi neo

You still want a tune to maximize every thing.

thanks, i just picked up a brand new in box zex wet kit w/ 55, 65, and 75hp jets for $350. i just gotta get a fuel pressure regulator now and some warmer weather. im gonna try to wait till spring till i instal it but its gonna be hard. what regulator should i get, the aeromotive one?

tlcurt

rajca, do you have any pics of intalling the kit? and how you mounted the bottle in the trunk?

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

i dont have any pics installing it but i have pics of it installed.
i tried looking for the pics but cant find them, this is the only one i found(old pic), ill take some today and post them up.

tlcurt

did you vent the bottle outside through the trunk or not? i the kit came with it but its sealed in the trunk and i dont really want to put a hole in my trunk

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

i didnt vent it. have no leaks, or any other problems with the system.

tlcurt

does anyone have any pics of an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator on their tl. i see the FPR way back there an it seems like a pain to put in fpr. an the aeromotive 13109 right?

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

why are u putting in an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator? u dont need it for a nitrous set up.

tlcurt

isnt that how i tap the fuel for the wet kit in?

tlcurt

or where can i tap into the fuel line on the tl

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

i dont know. go on youtube and search for dirty john. he had nitrous in his tl (dont know wet or dry). or google to see what other ppl did on their hondas.

but i wouldnt mess with the fpr.

tlcurt

k, yea i didnt really want to do one but thought i kinda had too

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

u got a pic of the kit u got?

tlcurt

its just like yours but its wet, i have the link to it at the top of this thread

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

but u have to tap into teh fuel line, and im wondering if they give u fuel line and what other parts to make it possible.

tlcurt

they dont give any fuel line, but im pretty sure they just give an adapter that screws onto the zex box inlet for fuel and an the other end of the fitting, has the barb for the fuel line

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

take a pic of the system. u have a line going from teh bottle to a solenoid and a fuel line from a fuel source to solenoid. those have jets (pills) and they go into one adapter that u put in the intake

when hooking up the fuel side dont forget to purge the system. i reason i went with a dry kit is bc u can hook it up in 2hours or less and its just simpler.

thinhthan

so if i wanted to spray nitrous what all will i need besides the nitrous kit

tlcurt

yes, that is exactly what i was thinkin

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

your gonna need a device to tune the car. u dont want it running lean when spraying. a simple apexi neo works. and performance shop that has a good rep to sell nitrous, some shops like u rip ppl off and give them more air and some nitrous.

thinhthan

ok so all i would need is the nitrous kit and a neo right? i wouldnt need anything else

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

a few clips, zip ties, drills, just some minor stuff, and your going to need someone to install it for u and make sure that they know what their doing or they can fuck up your engine.

thinhthan

ok thanks o yea is the wet system or dry system better for the car

tlcurt

the wet injects nitrous and fuel at the same time so its giving the fuel needed for the extra boost, not running off the existing fuel system
