Default Nitrious for $699???

Interesting system-- apparently only takes ~2hrs to install... its a fogger, with 4 nosels (20/40/60/80 shot), goes directly into the intake before the throttle body. Eletrically attaches to the neg-side of the fuel injector wires to pulse the nitrious at the right time (apparently?). Seems like a pretty easy system, and reasonably priced (bottle/mounting/cables included)... What do you guys think?

The VCN-1000 is Venom's new entry level nitrous system. The system is built using Venom's proprietary closed loop fuel control system (like on the VCN-200). This ensures the proper air fuel mixture under all operating conditions. The system features an advanced microprocessor based control module that will automatically terminate the flow of nitrous if the air fuel mixture becomes too lean (the engine killer). Like the VCN-2000 it monitors the oxygen content in the exhaust (to determine the air fuel mixture) using your existing oxygen sensor. The system taps into your existing Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) and will automatically activate at wide open throttle (you can disable it by flipping the switch on the display). The system will automatically disengage when you let off of the throttle. During nitrous injection the system adds additional fuel using your existing fuel injectors. It electronically pulses the injectors just like your on-board computer system. The system will not interfere with your computer system or set the check engine or trouble code light on. There is no need to mess with the plumbing of your fuel system since everything is done electronically.
You control the flow of nitrous to your engine using various sized nozzles (each kit contains 4 color coded nozzles), the module will automatically control the fuel flow to match the amount of nitrous. There is no jetting like the other nitrous systems and there is no need to worry about whether the jetting is correct.

The system also has a dash mounted display that indicates system status and air fuel ratio (Rich/Lean).

That is a wet system, so you will have a little delay and won't get the power you would from a dry system, thats why its so cheap. Always go with a dry system if you can.

$699 sounds like the regular price for a nitrous kit.

They give u 4 nosels...20/40/60/80 shot... (in HP)... I spoke w/them...they didn't recommend over a 60shot on the s2k.

Is it "BAD"...well... it could be if abused.
