ZEX probs?

I've got my ZEX set up for 55 shots and the hose to an from the absolute pressure sensor keeps popping off. I ended up clamping them down, but have not used the nitrous since. Anyone else experience the same problem? Is there a real problem potential? Any other solution? Any help is appreciated.

Im guessing you dont have it plumbed correctly. With the Zex the ONLY thing that should see the boost is the fuel pressure regulator.



Also your profile says you have NOS, this thread says you have ZEX. Which is it really??

It's hooked up right. It all works great. The hose just kept popping off. My guess is that there is too much manifold pressure when it's hooked up. What else could it be? Do you have the same system?
I've got a Nitrous Oxide System (NOS), not the actual company. It is ZEX.

I used hose clamps on ALL connections and never had any problems...just tighten them down and run free...

Is this including the hose to and from the absolute pressure sensor? I know that it's not one of the hose that needed to be re-arranged to put the ZEX on, I clamped all of those too.
