yes, and why sell your self short.. put the bigest jet they got in there....
i guess the real question is do you NEED it? are you over fueled? you trying to spool the twins quicker? just wanting a chemical intercooler? or do you just want to be able to say your trucks on drugs?

One good thing is that nitrous is pretty safe on a diesel,, too much nitrous and the flame just goes out,, restart the truck and be on your way again.... I personally really like the customer support that I have been getting from the fellows at NX, nice guys very helpful

i know nothing about the kits, but buying one solely because its cheaper isnt a good idea. you have spent thousands on getting your setup right, why waste it by going cheap on the nitrous? I'm not saying the Zex isnt good, but dont buy it just because its cheaper.

I bought the stacker kit from NX, I thought the price was very good,, but I didnt really shop around to be honest,, I just heard lots of good things about them... One thing to keep in mind is the quality of the solenoids,, which I think that NX probably has the best in the marketplace right now

Nitrous may not be bad for the engine, but it can be hard on turbos. I sudden surge in power can sometimes crack the thrust bearing in the turbo. It creates an impact effect. Not that this happens a lot, but just so everyone knows it not 100% safe.
