Default zex or full nitrous system

I know this has probably been asked before but i dont feel like going deep into the archives to find it.Does anyone know what would be more worth the money a zex system or straight nitrous setup. Anyone with knowledge please hook me up with the low down. Thanks

ZEX kits are a piece of ****. Their products are weak and unreliable. They even rate their HP at the crank, not wheel, so when you think your buying a 100 shot, its actually more like a 55.
If your going run nitrous on your car, look around, ask questions, and piece and part different things together. NX and NOS are pretty reliable, ive heard NOS makes better solenoids though. Just look for reviews, ask people who have done it, and piece it all together.

i wouldnt say zex is a peice, mista bone is running a zex dry kit and is capable of 13's on a 75 shot along with a kazz lsd unit and a stock internal z6 in a 92-95 hatch. if im not mistaken it has been in his car for a few years now. and if your running a 100 jet/jets rated at the flywheel most drivetrain loss in a honda ranges from 10-15% so you would roughly be running 80 extra whp at least. but personally i prefer to run direct port. alot better distribution to each cylinder is acomplished by direct port.

I also know a guy with a 10 second nitrous powered 87 malibu, and a 200hp neon on a 100 shot of nitrous. He wont touch zex with a 10-foot pole.
