http://www.nano-nitrous.com/
Been trying to figure out which way to go here. This nano kit is suppose to give me twice the amount of runs out of one 10lb bottle since it holds bottle pressure until its completely empty. But that would also mean getting the nano bottle filled with nitrogen or compressed air ( like 10 bucks ) every time I fill the bottle. So that means two different stops just to get my Nitrous system up and running again........
Or......
Should I just get a zex maximizer kit which will have a 10lb bottle, brackets, and lines. In that case I'd have 20lbs of nitrous and get twice the run times but no additonal expense of filling up a seperate bottle with nitrous. I would just have to get both my bottles topped off, which as far as cost of nitrous goes would be the same as filling one bottle thats completely empty vs two bottles half empty and starting to loose bottle pressure.
The nano kit is 359
The maximizer kit is 200
plus like 50 bones for a bottle heater.
I've seen a few used nitrous kits online for around 300 but I might be able to get someone to part with there bottle, brackets, and lines for say 175 if I play my cards right.
Any opinions here??? _________________

I'm not a nitrous guy, but I've never heard of nano. I'd say Zex just for their name. Im scared of brands I've never heard of. _________________

Just to clarify, the nano system does not replace my nitrous system. It's an addon. It basically pushes a 1050psi charge of nitrogen, or compressed air, on to the top of the bottle so that the pressure never drops and your able to use all the nitrous in your nitrous bottle.
It also improves the hp and tq of your nitrous system. Most nitrous systems are introduced at 950 psi but steadily drop in pressure throughout your run. With a kit like this it allows you to maintain that 950 psi bottle pressure through the entire run improving the amount of power you get.
check out the tech link on that page, it will basically demonstrate how a pressure kit works. It's basically a add on for your nitrous kit to make it more effective.
wow and after all that I just sold it on myself lmao. Here we go  _________________

I agree as well. Only added benefit to the nano kit is that the current nitrous kit you have makes more power. Since by the time you hit about 3-4 seconds in bottle pressure has dropped enough to take off about 30rwhp _________________

2 Bottles add more weight also...
I like the idea of the Nano kit myself...More "POWA"
Just carry a extra bottle with you if you are shooting that big of shot... _________________ 07 Dodge Ram 4x4

Yeah. I ordered the NANO kit yesterday. It should ship today and get put on next week by my performance shop. Now I"m just in the market for an extra bottle.
But yeah, that was the deciding factor, weight + more powa = me a happy son of a bitch  _________________

The nano kit will add weight, but about 17 lbs less then another 10lb bottle. And with the nano kit you get twice the runs out of 1 bottle and more hp/tq from the same shot so works out well on both ends.
The nano bottle is a little 2.5lb bottle you fill with nitrogen or compressed air, not nearly as heavy as a 24lb Nitrous bottle (when its full) _________________

Well thats the best part. You normally can get it filled at a paintball shop, it can be either nitrogen or compressed air. But since talking with my guys at bnt the owner shawn runs a 1000hp fox body as his shop car with a 300hp shot of nitrous and he ordered a kit as well. He told me yesterday he's getting a nitrogen tank to be able to fill the kits at the shop  _________________
