Default Nitrous question...

Is anyone running the Zex kit at 75 on stock internals and fuel? Did you retard ignition at all to the recommended setting of 4 degrees? Does it seem like your motor is gonna blow? I'm getting the kit and want to know if I can push it to 75.

A friend I had ran a ZEX kit on his LS Teg with a 75 shot and stock internals. Only one way to find out if it'll work for you though.

any problems so far? with the 3 degree retard does it affect street performance with the bottle off?

can you leave the bottle open all the time or is that not recommended? asking because of all of these new remote bottle opener things. i think they are a gimmick but need confirmation.

Don't leave the bottle open all the time, it will leak small amounts of nitrous out and I would say overnight your bottle would be empty, open only when you are going to race.
