Myrtle Beach,
I'm wanting to add a zex wet kit...(or i've heard a wet kit was the best for my n/t)....anyways....with my bottom end completly redone...(JE Pistons, Eagle Rods, Apr Bolts)....will it be safe for me to run a 100 shot? i also am getting the NKG plugs also....so should i stick with the 75 shot or go with a 100 shot......also, what is a purge kit for? thanks

Also, what is the zex wet kit model for my 1996 eclipse n/t
 
go for the 100. thats what i will be doing once i rebuild my bottom end. it can handle it dont worry. ive heard i could do a 150 shot but i baby my car so ill stick with the 100. its all up to you in the end:dsm:
 
A 100 shot on a rebuilt bottom end is fine. Just make sure you get forged, no crappy cast pistons/rods :p. I'd estimate not going above a 150 shot until you start doing some headwork.


As for the purge kit, read this paragraph from the Info On Nitrous Thread, linked below.

Purge kits are also a crave for most nitrous owners. They're cool, and help just a tad bit more while spraying at the track. Purge kits allow pressure, as well as nitrous, to be released from the nitrous line as long as the valve is open. The opening of the purge valve is controlled by a push button. As long as the button is held down, the longer the valve is held open. Puring the pressure and contents of the line allows for a better, and more pure, shot of nitrous. This is crucial in nitrous performance at the track. When you turn off the bottle, the remaining contents of the line will either leak out, or can be purged out, or even sprayed until the line is dry. Whenever you reopen the bottle, all the air inside the line is then condensed and compacted at the farthest away end, the nozzle end. Puring this allows for that excess gap of compressed air to be released, so when you spray, you don't end up with a spray of just air until the nitrous eventually gets there. Having this occur could save you tenths of a second in the time you run at the track. They're also pretty cool to use in traffic. If you're more of a show car, and you have kids leaning out the window of a van screaming at your car as you go buy, purging can be an awesome thing to them. This happened to me once, and you should of seen the look of those kids faces. Same with parades, it's a great attention getter and race starter for those jealous guys without nitrous.
