Default use the old or purchase new?

i have 2 nitrous kits sittin around and im tossin around the idea of stickin one in my truck.. both kits are NOS brand single nozzle setups. one wet the other dry which was converted to a wet system. I dont have every last piece of the kits. pretty much bottle, noids, lines and nozzle. would i be better off just selling these and buying a new setup for the lsx motor? im not even sure i trust those solenoids as they have been sitting unused for some time. i also like the idea of all these fancy controller things and window switches. these kits were used on manual trans cars so wot only

i would use both kit and get a controller and put it on the wet kit and spray the dry out the hole.you can adj it to where you will hook but still have a little spray and help you get movin.you can hook it up where you have a wos to spray the dry then when the controller kicks in it kill the dry shot and you are just spraying the wet kit.

I would use what you got and buy what you need. Just test the solenoid before you install them to make sure they are working properly

How old are the solenoids? I ask because over the past few years some of the fuel solenoid plungers needed to be adapted to todays fuel additives to prevent swelling. Shoot me over a list of what you have and I can help put together the kits for you. Thanks.

Do you have apicture of what you have? We carry a large selection in brands and products as well as NOS. we can probably add to what you have and save some money.
