oh that conversion's been done many times already.

hey cargodz, is that Zex brand the same company who makes nitrous kits?
If so I was just reading about a 300HP plate system they offer now (uses 12 jets around the plate instead of a spray bar across the center of the intake) that retails for about $550.
I wanted to get a price on that Zex kit, possibly with a smaller jetting, say 150-175HP. Cheers.

Yup...same company :)
Are you looking for vehicle specific or universal nitrous kit?

Zex=Competition Cams owned. Great quality stuff, great company in general.

Is it ZEX or TCI that make the axles? I thought TCI was the only one offering drivetrain components from their brand offerings, and ZEX was dedicated to NOS systems.

Zex now has performance axles for 92-95 Honda Civics in 2 different stages, but I imagine Comp cams has them made through TCI for Zex the same way Comp cams makes the cams for Civics and puts them in the Zex name.

Good to know, thanks. Been a while since I checked into their offerings, been too long since I've built a performance car :(

Still weighing out options, thinking about getting an 03-04 Cobra to build up, maybe a twin turbo kit or a Kenne Bell supercharger. Motors are already built to take an assload of power. You get all the Comp offerings? Even custom grinds if need be?

I believe that Zex package is universal. It'd be bolted to a Victor single plane manifold and a holley/quick fuel type 4bbl 1050cfm carb.
It's a plate system so it'd just go where my spacer is now, between carb and intake, then run fuel and nitrous lines to it, with a small 120 octane fuel cell under the hood to feed it directly.
jetting nozzles are interchangeable. The one I saw went to 300HP through the plate.
