2006 Mustang: Kb vs 175 shot Zex

I just got a 2006 Mustang GT(with ford racing drag kit) with a few thousand miles on it. I am either going to get the Kennebell or the 175 shot of Zex. I am just looking to see what the pro's con's would be and if the kb is worth breakin the bank. Here is a pic of the stang

Car looks nice. If it were me, I'd get the KB, since I like FI over nitrous.

It's up to you man, good luck with the 'Stang.

The KB... It will put down almost as much, if not just as much power, except it will always be on tap. Also KB's when set up right will be predictable. It won't stick a soloind or run out of fuel or any of the other unpredictable things that nitrous does.

Oh yeah and it already has the exhaust (Magnaflow Tru-X Pipe, Cat and cat back) so maybe that would be around 470rwhp ...

KB all the way. Ive been useing nitrous on my mustang for the past four years. But I really wish I would just save the money for forced induction. Nitrous does have its advantages though in certain situations.

yeah KB. my x boss got ahold of one of their tunes... modded his lightning(basic boly on's+KB tune) and had about 500 rwhp and tq, on the low setting. and on the same low setting he was able to run 13.8 at palmdale on stocker's spinnin through 2nd.. it was funny to watch him beat an srt 10 6speed.
