Default ZEX turbo kit #82218

Thinking I'm going to get me one of these today. I'm going to call it "boost assist". Should shorten up the 60 fts.

Is it a 50 shot?

It adjusts from 25hp - 75hp. You can also adjust @ what boost level it will disarm. There is also a pressure compensator that will adjust the fuel solenoid to changes in bottle psi. I'm going to start with the liitle jets. I wanted this kit to take some of the heat off the trans when staging.

Been doing some thinking and talking. I'm going to look into having the XFI turn on the juice @ about 2,500 rpm and let the Zex boost control turn it off @ around 15psi. I'm also going to purge the nitrous into the front of the intercooler for added cooling instead of waisting it into the air like the import brothers. I might even get fancy and buy or make a bar set up for the purge so I can cool the intercooler on demand. Time will tell!

Oh man, I am definetly interested in this one. I like the idea of purging it into the intercooler, two benefits in one.

Well, after picking some brains yesteray, I know what I need to do to have the FAST control the nitrous activation. I'm headed to my local speed shop this morning to pick up some parts.
