  • Venom Kit?

    Anybody run one? I think Im gonna get one. What all does that computer controled crap do? Is it a good thing? Opinions please. Nopi has these for $650...so its definately an option.

    If im not mistaken, that kit is geared toward ricers. Probably same as the ZEX kit.

    The nitrous injects at a certain ammount due to the pressure in the bottle. If you do not have enough pressure, it wont inject as much as u want. A safe feature, but i dont know if u'd like that.

    I'd go w/ an NX wet kit...you can get the kit for around $470.

    I cant give u an honest opinion cause i do not have either of those kits.

    GOod luck. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

      My understanding of venom is it's like a nos kit but with a controller so it's gradually added. Not exactly sure though. They are expensive though so it was never a consideration for me.

        Ive heard of a couple LS1 guys running those kits and they HATE them. I cant find the specific posts but i heard that the kits just have no kick to em. Its kinda neat that they are computer controlled and all but i dont think its worth the money. There are FAR better kits out there in my opinion. I mean split second decision here...what if you were sittin at a light and a ricer pulls up...revs his bumblebee exhaust and wants to run..*well say this is a lightly moddes Eclipse GST* your bottle is low therefore the psi is low...light turns green you hit the button and NOTHING. GST just walks away...when if you had a system that didnt rely on bottle psi hed be eating your dust. NOt a scenario id want to be involved in.

          I do not own one but this is what I've read up on and learned.
          Don't bother.
          NX is cheaper
          NOS is cheaper at $550
          Bottle psi low and you hit the button and nothing? Well, you still will get nitrous, just not to the full power level.
          I reccomend a book to read up on, Joe Petit (sp?)
