It's a nice kit actually. I like the looks a lot, more so than other direct port kits. It's a performer also. I know ICLUKIN on this site runs the NXL.
We carry this kit as well as all NX products, it's not pictured in the DP kits on our new site yet, but we have it. We Nitrous Direct are a sponsor of corvette forum, and Nitrous Outlet is not. I would hope that you would buy from a site sponsor that helps support this great site. There are many companys here that deal NX, also.
Give Scott a call at 954-650-7951, and tell him Robert sent ya, and give ya a deal of some sort, if you decide on this kit for sure.

I do have the kit... Works well. The collars are going to raise the injector about 1/2" so try and get injectors with a narrow spray pattern. This is is not an issue at WOT but will be for drivability.

I have it and am in the process of tweaking it. Looks bad ***. I have some pics posted of it in the car. Use the search method. The support guys from NX have been very helpfull. PM me with any more questions if I can help. Read through all the nitrous posts and get familiar with all the pro's/con's of all the systems. Also check out the other LS1 forum for some real trick looking/performing direct port kits.

This is a sharp looking system. I like to say its more for the guy looking for the directport looks with out needing the capability of spraying 250pluss like a real directport.
When picking this system ask your self what you are going to be doing in the future.. If you plan on wanting to spray more than the 180 I would suggest going with a real direct port. You can get it with the under the injector nozzles.. Here is why. AS you start moding your car and requiring more fuel this unit is desighned to feed off the stock fuel system. AS you require more fuel delivery your fuel system will not be able to stay caught up.
You may also need the fuel accumalater to keep the car from getting a sudden lean spike when the system hits on the larger shots..
Now thats the cons..
The pluss. The NXL nozzles are the best under the injector nozzle on the market. I have not seen any flow path problems from this nozzle like some other manafactures...
This is a very sharp looking system and easy to install..
To sum it up. If you are only looking to spray 80-180hp and want the directport look this may be for you. If you plan on getting alittle more serious you may want to explore other options.

Dave, what's your opinion if you have a upgraded fuel system, meaning: the return and reg at rails and a Racetronics Walbro jet pump/hot wire kit. This is good for 600rwhp and you won't see a lean spike on standard style wet kits and/or dry hits. You could also add a BAP that only activates at wot and controled by your n2o set-up (with this added to above-700rwhp and more). This might be an alternative to the accumulator for those who have already upgraded fuel system?
