yup
you dont need a purge kit
i actually think the purge kit is more rice than actual race
not that its a bad thing
i enjoyed looking at the faces of rice boys especially after getting reved.... SSSSSPt..... [oh **** expression]
you will do fine with the basic kit

Jaws I don't think the purge kits are *Rice*. But they only allow you improve a 1/4 time by about a tenth or so. The purge allows the evaporated nitrous out of the lines so you have a more powerfull first shot of spray. Now if we were spraying more than maybe a 100 shot then the purge would really be helpful and take nearly 2-3 tenths off a 1/4 time. smile.gif

well this is the way i look at it
if your running a 75+
do you really want an instant 75HP increase within a sec?
No...
why?
Shocking the engine... this is one of the drawbacks of having a nitrous system that is not controlled by a progressive setup.
I enjoy the gradual rise in horsepower
of course it really doesnt make that much of a difference,.... but it helps
By the way... ive tested it at the track and i have not noticed a difference. MY fastest time ever.... was without a purge kit. Thats another reason why i got rid of it.
I think the purge is rice,.... but hey i liked it, i also like my underglow neons, and my rice scoop, and my chrome rims, an.....dam random was right, i am a rice boy
LMAO!

I love my kit. Running a 65 shot. Unfortunately, with the small bottle, you begin to notice the pressure drop too soon...say after about 4 runs. I don't think a purge kit is necessary, but you might want to invest in a bottle warmer. It should keep the pressure fairly consistent. Other than that, a pressure guage might be a good idea as well.

if you live in a warm area... the battle warmer is not needed...
I hardly noticed a difference with my ZEX bottle warmer
i here the NOS ones are better... but oh well
I let the warm LA sun heat up my bottle

That's what happened to mine a few weeks ago. I lost my Nitrous and I had to replace the safety disc and the gasket on the bottle. If you leave your bottle's in the car (in the sun) please roll your windows down; lesson learned.I let the warm LA sun heat up my bottle
