Im trying to decide what would be the best way to increase my car's performance. confused.gif Right now Im mainly leaning towards NOS and the 4A-GZE engine. I was wondering which of these would I get the most performance out of for the $ I'd pay for it. I also wanted to know if I would have to make any modifications on my car to install the engine. I have a 94 st w/ an auto tranny. Thanx. biggrin.gif

The Zex kit is actually the safest kit around. Wit their new Ejector filter, their is no modification neseccary to your current air intake, just put on the new ejector cone filter. The kit also only allows the ejection of nitrous oxide when at WOT, which is where most people make the mistake of not doing this and blow their engines. They hit the nitrous before they're in the final drive gear and towards the top...they then over-rev too quickly and way too much without having adequate time to shift into that final drive gear. If you just do the 55 shot of Zex, and use it correctly...your engine should be fine.
